I feel the pain of others who had a hard time breaking this boot in. I finally resorted to the old Army trick of putting the boots in the shower and filling them with hot water and letting them set for an hour. After dumping the water out, I wore them until they were dry, which took a long time, then I just wore them all the time, day in day out, and now I can't stand to take them off at the end of the day. I can walk for miles with no discomfort at all. Give them the chance they deserve - break them in hard and heavy, and you'll have a pair of boots that will last you twenty years.
