Boots a tight fit - what do you recommend?

I got some arbortec boots for Christmas, in size EU 43 (which is about UK size 9) and they are just about wearable, but on my right foot particularly, feel a bit cramped.

 

They're fine length ways, but in terms of height and width, my toe area feels a bit uncomfortable.

 

My current work boots are EU size 43 and I have some non-work boots which are also EU size 43, and both are great fits, but these arbortec boots (and funnily enough they are physically longer than the other two pairs of boots really feel cramped.

 

Maybe a pointless thread, but should I wear them indoors for this week to see if I get used to them, or just return them and go for size 44.

 

All I need is some boots which are higher in the toe department. They're too squished!

Thinner socks/insoles

 

Yeah they're not as bad with thinner socks, but I looked at taking the insoles out of the boots and they seem properly attached.

 

My bro just had a look and said he thought he could see a slight widening of the leather at the side so in order to return them I'm not gonna wear them again.

 

Don't know why I asked for opinions now. In reality, they've gotta go back and I know it. It's either 44's or maybe a new model which give toes more space width-height wise.
