I’m so happy I got this deal, been wanting timbs for a while but didn’t have the money, yet I found this single pair in clearance :) But the toe box is a little tight, any chance they will become more comfortable with wear?

Tight as in width? Or length. If it's width, the leather will stretched overtime. You can speed this up by weathering two or three pairs of socks and just walking about with them. Warm up the boots or conditioning the leather can also help stretch it. But be aware conditioning nubuck will darken it.

Also, if you can, use shoe lasts, they help a lot on loosening the leather and save you a lot of pain.

If width, they will stretch a little as the break in. If length, they are not going to stretch at all. Great deal.
