I purchased a pair of Allen Edmonds Nashua and a pair of Allen Edmonds Eastport in January and February, respectively. I have worn both every other day. Sometimes I will skip a day or two of wearing either, so for arguments sake, let us say I have worn the Nashuas around 30 times and the Eastports around 20 times. I love the shoes, but they still feel a bit tight width-wise. On the Nashuas, my right pinkie toe gets sore after a while of wearing the shoes. On the Eastport my left big toe, left pinkie toe, and right pinkie toe all get sore after a while of wearing the shoes.
I purchased them from Nordstrom. On the salesman's business card, it said something along the lines of "Certified Shoe Fitter", so I am guessing he knows at least a little bit about fitting shoes. He told me to buy the shoes slightly tight, and I listened to him.
So...is this normal? Should I get them stretched? Did the Nordstrom guy give me bad advice? Should I sue?
Ok, just kidding about the suing part.
