“I gave these boots to my adult daughter. As she put them on for the first time, she thought they were too small. Once she really pushed her foot in, she said they were the perfect size and loved them. When she got home that night, she later told me she was in tears trying to get them off. They were so tight, she almost had to sleep in them. The next day, she wore them again, and this time the whole family worked to get the shoes off her feet. She is a size USA 7.5 for all her other shoes, and she has worn out a 5.5 bluntstone that was always too big. She doesn't want to return them because she loves them so much once they are on. Is it typical for them to start out soooo tight, or could it be a mis-made shoe, too narrow at the ankle?”
