I'm surprised at how many people here seem to think it's OK to try to return shoes that have been worn. It isn't. It's only OK to return them if there's a manufacturing defect or if they're still in a condition such that the retailer can sell them to someone whom they will fit. Try-on creases are one thing, but scuffed soles are unacceptable.
If you wear your shoes out and scuff up the soles, they're yours. Doesn't matter if you discover you bought the wrong size or the salesman put you in the wrong size. It's your job to make sure your shoes fit before you make them unreturnable. If that means you have to curb your enthusiasm for showing off your new babies for a couple days and just wear them around the house on carpet to make sure they fit, that's what you have to do.
This is not directed at the OP, by the way. Sounds like he's thinking about this rightly, which is commendable.
