DO ANY OF YOU DEAL WITH THIS SAME TYPE OF THING????

Yes, it's the principal problem. We reshoe or reset at 3-4 weeks because of
this kind of problem. However, one way to avoid part of the problem is to
take the shoes off for a day before the shoer arrives--the feet will spread
and the shoe can be better matched to the "new" foot.
