Bear Paw Boots question

[motherof2boys]

Anyone know how quickly Bear Paw Boots stretch? I wear an 8.5 so a few years ago MIL got me a size 9. They're so stretched out I had to put an insert inside & need to wear socks. The back folds weird because there is so much space. I'd love to get another pair size 8 (maybe Santa will bring them? ) to wear at night during our Christmas trip (Dec 27th) I'm concerned they'll be too tight at first because they're actually half a size to small.

I've been wearing mine for a few years and never noticed them stretched out.

If anybody lives near a Gabriel Brothers, I just saw a rack of Bear Paws brand for 30.00 today. They had at least three colors and two or three styles.

I don't think they stretch out. When you first get them the lining is fluffy so they are more snug. As you wear them the lining gets smooshed down so they feel bigger.

OP here

I didn't tell Hubby I wanted them so chances are they will not be under the tree this year. I guess I'll have to try them in a store & see how tight an 8 is.

Thanks!

I have several pairs and none of mine have ever stretched, still fit as good as the day I bought them.

Never had mine stretch, but I always thought they ran really big.

I have one pair and they are so comfy... I love them!! I did have to purchase a size larger than my normal shoe size and they fit fine. They didn't seem to run large in my opinion nor did they stretch. OP I hope you received a pair for the holidays
