Wondering if I should try stretching them or just sell them.

My favorite boots, I mainly wear these travelling because they're light, durable, really soft leather, sheepskin. Really durable. I've broken two sets of laces and gone through two resolings, the uppers are still good. Have been worn backpacking through Vietnam, India, Thailand, etc. for weeks on end. I don't like the creasing at the toe, but not really an option with sheepskin boots the previously mentioned marsells, leather is awesome. Dirty from walking through mud, need to clean. Perfect boots, other than the toe-shape I don't like. I wear these through the snow in the winter to work. worn less than 10 times heres what a worn pair will look like. They're reversed waxed horse, as the wax finish wears off it will reveal a suede-like surface not quite at the $700 mark are alden cordovan boots and jil horse derbies Warning: Spoiler!
