I just picked up a pair of retail store ordered Allen Edmonds Delray (basic leather soled split toe bluchers). I choose to purchase at a retailer because I prefer to try on shoes. My feet measure to be a 10.5D, but I have typically preferred a 10.5E. Before placing the order, I tried on a pair in the exact size and style ordered. I would have typically taken the pair in stock, but they did not have them in the color I wanted. Since I don’t live in a major city, my best option for AE’s is a store with a trunk show and a very limited selection in stock.
The pair I tried on in the store was extremely comfortable from the start. Of course, I expect they have been somewhat broken in from being tried on. However, the pair I received is a little tight on the sides around and above the ball of my foot. Will these break in after wearing for a few days or should I return them for a wider size?
Clearly, I’m not going to return the shoes after wearing them for a few days so I’d like make the decision before trying to break the shoes in.
