That's probably where the creasing in the vamp is hitting the top of your foot, especially if it's a newish shoe. I counter this with thicker socks and with the hope that once the shoe breaks in better, the discomfort will likely disappear.
Yeah might be, just that I have used this pair around 20 times now. I was just thinking about the thicker socks so will give that a try. Two pairs more like maybe.

Grain Stows. Never been so looking forward to 43F and rain this afternoon to melt all the snow.

You can also put a padded band aid on the affected area of your foot. And massage the creasing area of the boot (with Bick 4 for example) to speed up break in of that area.

New purchase from the outlet:

Model: Robert
Leather: Ridge Kudu Reversed Suede
Sole: Dainite with leather midsole
Welt: 360

The leather is fantastic as spected with kudu, I was thinking buying the same model in brown MC leather, but since I wanted an informal shoe the kudu suede was a better option.

Highly recommended.

After a good long wait here are my MTO green and blue CXL 9 hole monkeys. Absolutely amazing job done by the shoe healer. For the detail hungry they are green CXL over blue cavalier, the 4444 last, 6 eyelets and 3 speed hooks, leather and two piece ridgeway sole.

How's the comfort of the single layer sole (Trickers light weight version) versus their normal offerings?
