Hello guys
I've been wearing a pair of jackboots for sometime now and I'm getting agitated with how wide they are on the top compared to my ultra skinny legs.
I have bought the smallest size I can get away with.
Is there anyway to shrink them without major remodelling of the leather.

Not sure on which make they are but I bought them from solider of fortune

Cheers for any help

P-p

Pretty hard to shrink jackboot leather, probably needs a cobbler unfortunately. Some boots seem to be made with wider tops than others, you could maybe stuff the tops with hand grenades and trench knives?

Cheers
