i hate to be a downer for you,but i bought my gt's from my local red wing store, i was thinking the same thing as you are,1/2 size smaller, the gentleman at the store gave some good advice, they will stretch a little wider, but no way will they get longer.- old timer

i have had my GT'S for about 8 weeks, the more i wear them the better they fit, as far as insoles go SUPERFEET black, they are very thin. i can move my toes alittle more than i would like, but a half size smaller would not work, that is why i use the insoles, they are snug whithout being tight...- old timer

Introduce yourself.
know what you mean, learned quality from my dad, he was a dairy farmer with six children, if my mom bought us something cheap, his would raise holy hell, did not have a lot of money back then, but he always told us that there was a difference between price and value- old timer

if you use insoles, i have had great luck with SUPERFEET, you can find them online, i use the black ones, they are thin. my heel did slip a little, but the more i wore my gt's the better they fit. i am not sure but i think you can buy a heel insert, i think with the insole you might be good.- old timer

i have to say i over think a lot of things, they feel good, nice and snug, but when the leather stretches i am afraid they will be to big, crazy i know but that is just the way i think, not only drives my wife nuts, i an starting to get on my own nerves.- old timer

you might try some neatsfoot oil first, since they are leather soles- old timer

thank you for your input. i purchased some black superfeet insoles ( very thin) i put them in, and wore them all day today at the farm, then my wife suggested i might be stretching my boot to much, but they felt great all day, i am tempted to just leave them in full time, i was thinking about...- old timer
