Do you feel the actual last shrunk in the width, or the leather? Interested to know because my Hood’s are a narrow, and I’ve always had narrow feet. However last fall I felt they were much more snug than in seasons past and didn’t know if it was the boot or my feet were getting wider as I age. I’ve always treated them with Danner products or Montana Pitch-blend.
The soles are definitely a harder rubber and terrible on ice and hard pack snow. I have Schnees for that though.
That’s a narrow last to begin with and I’m considering ordering another pair in Regular width. Along with trying Crispi GTX Guides.
