I've worn quality custom boots for the last 35 years. In that time I had a couple instances where I went to some high end court shoes with the thought of lessening wear on the boots. Both times, I paid miserably for that experiment. Put my boots back on it was a laying on of the hands in both instances. Likely, proper support is the issue. If one has done any shifts in foot ware recently, that might be the issue.
Good luck.
