Curving soles on my PAs

[KJT]

So I noticed yesterday that the soles on my Park Avenues (just one pair and not the other that I have) are curving up more sharply in the front than I think they were in the past. Is this a symptom of shoe trees that aren't long enough or do not exert enough pressure? I hesitate to assume this because when the trees are in, the leather on the uppers is strectched flat. I don't have pictures unfortunately but maybe someone can diagnose this problem without them.

Thanks!

Probably more an inconsistency in quality with Allen Edmonds than anything. I too have notice that with my pair of AE Park Avenues.

So is there anything that can be done to flatten them down a bit? It's starting to look like I'm wearing elf shoes or really short skis.
