Well I always go a half size bigger. In my case they fit really good except the back of the heel is where the blisters are at. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Ghostbusters Fans on Android ---

There’s a breaking in period with any leather shoe. But if you feel these are small to begin with, return them. If they’re just stiff wear them every day for a couple of weeks. ---

I understand that new leather will feel stiff at first but when I wear these I genuinely feel some pain; I don’t think that’s good. I don’t normally wear boots so I’m new at this but my instincts tell me that if my feet hurt I should probably try a different size. ---

Yeah, that doesn’t sound good. Like PC says, some break-in is always going to be needed, but they shouldn’t _hurt_. You say they feel narrow? Do you think a wider size might be needed? I normally wear a standard width shoe, but occasionally need a wide in dress shoes or boots. ---

When I wear them the pain comes from the tightness over the top of my foot near the spot the slope of the foot meets the toes. I also get some tightness/pain on the side of my feet where the two outer-most toes meet the foot. I’m already in contact with the company and I’m going to send the shoes back and try to see if they have a wider shoe. I really like these shoes. They look awesome and super close to the GB shoes, so I’m hoping I can get a pair that fit a little better. ---

Depending on the site where u placed the order?? I know when I ordered mine, I had an option on the webpage for either the standard width or a wider one. All sizes offered that option I do believe. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Ghostbusters Fans on Android ---

> [@Jairus](#): > > ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/equipment/reference/9/1.jpg) Hmm.. so if yer doing Winston, its one leg tucked, one untucked. Oddly, it looks like Winston’s boots are much shorter than Egon’s. ---

Winston always gets the short end of the stick. Or the boot. Or whatever. **Winston always got screwed over.** [Previous page](https://forum.gbfans.com/t/what-kind-of-shoes-did-the-gbs-wear/10421.md?page=1)
