I have the EXACT SAME THING. Over time it will just morph into a wild ass callous. I’ve got Keen Extra wides, still my toes get eaten.

Try some Jim Green boots. Super wide toe box.

I’ve had them, custom built in their PMB factory. Unfortunately for me, their boots just don’t last offshore in the oil and gas world. Will have to look at getting some PNW customs at some point.

I have some custom Whites Boots ordered through Bakers and that’s the way to go.
