I thought there shouldn't be any difference if both the shoe and boot are of cordovan leather and on the same Barrie last. I am only worried about the boot being tight compred to the shoe, not the other way around.
I can understand if CXL leather boot is slightly snug compared to the cordovan leather shoe on the Barrie last. Unfortunately no one carries boots in the C width. It will have to be MTO for both the cordovan and CXL Barrie last boots.
In my experience, it varies from shoe to shoe.
It is always best to try on the actual shoe/boot if possible.....otherwise you run the risk of the fit being less than ideal.
I know this is not always practical, especially when you live somewhere with limited Alden retailers.
