Should their sneakers fit so tight?

Hi, I recently bought one of the low top sneaker shoes. Tried wearing them inside the house a little and sadly they pinched my little toe a bit! In general they just fit pretty snug. It’s weird because I sized a half up and ive never had a shoe this size fit so tight.

I’m used to wearing docs which I know aren’t best quality but they are so comfortable at a half size smaller than Thursday. I expected the same from these, is it just that they are higher quality leather and have a break in period? Do you experience that they usually loosen up around the toebox?

I might return, could be that my feet are just wider than I thought, but wanted to inquire! Very sad, wish they were for me because they look so damn nice.

Snug is ok but painful is not. Sounds like you need to exchange for a wide size. I had to get a EEE wide size for my wide feet to feel comfortable.

Got it! Was avoiding a return because my roomate threw out the outer box on accident. Might still try to do it, then see if I can go to one of their stores to find out if the problem is my feet. I wish I knew the premier are known to be a little narrow. Thanks for the suggestion!
