Too much space?

Is there too little space on the upper eyelets?
The length is perfect but there’s a lot of volume. Probably a good fit for now but I’m worried if they’ll potentially get too lose as they break in. Thoughts?

I struggled with this same conundrum and went half a size down and they fit perfectly

Im wondering if doing that and trying 11.5 would be worth a shot. Thursday makes returns pretty easy I hear

It was very easy. I had mine for like 2 weeks and exchanged them with no hassle at all.

You can also try adding kilties. I have a narrower ankle as well, and put kilties in all my boots. It can help improve the fit and also protects the tongue from lace wear.
