        I have never heard about TNT before, but google telling me that we have TNT office in our city  🙂
        Fedex - not really used them in Russia(but worked as a package handler in FedEx sortig facility near Chicago long time ago  😉 ), don't know anything solid, so don't want to tell anything good or bad.

        Why not consider using DHL?

                          and me!  😃

                          now first impressions:

                          boots are great, heavy and looks indestructible 😎
                          definitely nice boots.

                          size cause some questions:
                          I can put them on quite easely with the straps tighten up as they come from the store(3rd from the last hole), there is no anything like a tight feeling, the heel is slipping easely, even if I am not walking.
                          I can put them off quite easely, without any significant effort
                          I am currently trying them with a thin dress socks, what I am usually wear in the office, since I am changing the boots in the office to something more comfortable and dressy, so I would like to wear the boots with a thin socks as well. Sould I try to put them on with some additional insole(insert one more insole under existing leather insole)?
                          sould I try tmem with tightly fasten straps?

                          what would be the experts suggestions?

                          Since this is quite expensive boots for me, I would prefer to have everyithing just the right way and there is still half size smaller boots available at the stock…

                            socks make a huge difference.

                            try on the boots with socks you plan to wear with the boots and I think that will resolve your issue.

                            again great purchase and great looking boot

                              but this is the socks that I usually wear and plannig to wear  :-\

                              boots are great, no questions… but still kind of thinking to go half size down.

                                  yes, but I don't really want to take different socks for the office each day 😉
                                  I want to go to the office with boots and then jump to the office shoes. changing the socks in the office going to be too much for me, I am too old for this sh#t  😃

                                  I am going to wait for few more experts(who has engineer boots) opinion based on my description  ::) and then make a decision.

                                    tried them once again, definitely far to big for me.
                                    even at the evening, when the foot is slightly bigger it still feel too big for me.
                                    I would send it back for exchange for 9.5D, think it would be best decision.  😎 even thought I want to wear them really much…

                                    and probably it still not the best weather for Engineers in my town yet... still have some gap in time..

                                      I'am not a expert at all, but here are my thoughts.

                                      I ordered the boot in 9,5 at first, but when I tryed it on my first thought was, they are to big. Since I wanted the best fitting size, I ordered the 9 as well and compared them side by side. My first feeling proofed to be right, because I ended with the 9.

                                      With the 9,5 I slipped just to much at the heel, it just didn't feel right. Can't explain it better than that, sorry!

                                      The 9 had still minor play in the heel, but this got regulated by the worn in midsole, which gets the boot a bit smaller afterwards.

                                      My tip, if you want to get it right, order the next smaller size and compare them side by side.
