Ok so I recieved these boots (Desert Acadia GTX) in size 12 B and I have to say they are the best made boots Ive seen to date.

They fit my very narrow foot perfect accept one thing.....the right foot toe box.

Walking around the house they feel ok but I imagine this could be a problem after 12 miles (or many more) with a lot of weight on board.

So, would you send them back and go a half size up risking having too large a boot.?

Or try to have a boot repair guy stretch the toe box out?

With the toe box still hard its hard to tell if they are just too short, or a little tightness that might stretch out after a few miles on them-

Thanks for any advice-
