Boot Fit Question

So I recently purchased a pair of Frye Phillip Work boots, as seen below. I ordered my size in the boot, and fit seems OK. The one issue is the heels on both feel a bit snug. I have been walking around the house with them and they feel fine. I wonder though do boots like these break in or am I going to suffer the dreaded blister from walking all day in them. They are expensive and I don't want to be stuck with boots I cannot wear or return if I walk around in them. Does anyone have any experience in this matter? Thanks!

I've never felt heels widen on their own. You may be able to have someone stretch it.
