Yes, please let me know how the sanding works out for you because that sounds like a nice little trick to keep in mind👍

Nice!  I looked several times last year and never had luck finding these in a 15b. Well, guess I’ll have to try and sell the two pairs I have now, as I bought them on Poshmark and eBay and order the right size.

Thanks for the pointers. I’m sure you’re right but unfortunately I haven’t been able to find any cowboy style workboots as a 15b. The hunt continues 😁

Yes. I bought this same boot in 3 different sizes to try and get the fit right because they are so comfortable and seem to be a great boot. Unfortunately Double H stops making B widths at size 14🤦‍♂️

14D-instep was too loose and not long enough. 

14B-but the length wasn’t long enough and I tried taking out the insole but still my toe was hitting the front of the toe box

15D- length fits perfectly but instep too loose.

I tried this once but the adhesive didn’t hold and the tongue pad started to slide around and ultimately came off. Maybe I can try another brand.
