Men's Realtree EDGE® Apex PRO Vibram AGAT Insulated Boot

Bought two weeks ago and have been beating my head on the wall trying to figure out as to why these boots are so tight on my feet. I can wear a size 6 or 7 in my normal boot size. I am 5ft 5 and only 155 lbs. Ordered a size 7 and the extremely tight fit was putting my foot to sleep. I thought maybe the size on the boot was tagged wrong. Even bought what was labeled as extra thin white socks. Still had the same issue. Finally after a week or more of trying to figure this issue out I realized that the insole/inserts were the issue. I did not know they were removable. They are advertised as a new insole. They have a rubber bottom and then the foam on top. After removal my foot was swimming in the boot very loose. So I knew the boot was the correct size. The insoles are extremely thick and pick the foot up against the top of the boot. I know upon reading about muck boots they say they have done much research as to make these boots fit their best. You cant put a 1/4 inch plus lift in a boot bottom and expect it to fit properly. The boot has to be compensated also. I did find that there is an available thinner style muck boot insole. Ordered two of them and am hoping it solves my problem. Just a heads up with these boots.
