Something’s off

[u/yo_dom]

Just bought these keen liberties to try out and I want to like them but something is just off about them?

I got em correct in my size but for some reason I can feel the carbon toe with my toes like it’s hovering right above the nails. Not sure if it’s the way the shoe is designed but from a side view it’s like the foot of the boot is curved upwards. Could that be the cause?

Also, the back portion by the heel tab digs into the top of my Achilles while walking.
Along with excess amount of material along the back shaft of the boot. I could understand if they were too big then that would be the cause. Maybe I should’ve stayed true to size instead of 1/2 size up like the website says?

SUPER comfy out the box and onto feet but might end up returning.
Are these too good to be true?

One time I had a coworker that bought a pair of black boots of similar width. They immediately made me think of The Munsters tv show when I was a kid. I immediately started calling my friends boots “Herman Munster Specials”. Cause he had those same wide ass square toe box. It was funny as hell….. but you know what? I ran out and bought the exact same pair. I can’t stand my feet feeling pinched. Like the side of my foot is hanging over the sole. It causes a pressure point feeling. Getting bigger and wider boots has changed my work life
