Boot resoration question.

Does anybody here have experience working with leather boots? I order a pair of WWII German Jack Boots for my Tie Pilot. I knew they were not going to be perfect, but I thought they were going to come in a better condition. Structurally they are good nothing ripped or falling apart, they just don't look "pretty". Also they are very, VERY tight around my legs (foot size is perfect) so I have to see about getting those stretched out. Can anybody help out or recommend a good shoe repair place?

I don't know of a specific cobbler that I could recommend. If you don't get any other responses, I would try finding one in your area based on Yelp reviews.

For the leather part of the boots, I might try hitting them with some saddle soap and lots of polish. A bit of elbow grease and a few hours in front of the TV might bring those back.
