    If the boots are not super uncomfortable, get a thick pair of cotton socks, wet the socks real good, put them on, then put the boots on, and wear the boots till the socks and the boots are dry. They will form to your feet. This will only work with all leather boots. An ole western boot trick, that works.

    It works. My brother told me that when they were issued new boots during WW2 and they hurt there feet they would do the same thing. But instead of wetting the socks they would wade around in a small stream and then wear them ontill they dried. I had a pair of boots made for skirmishing that did not fit right. At one skirmish they really were hurting my feet and I remembered what my brother told me. I waded around in Black creek and then wore them until they dried. They never bothered my feet again.
