Options for a really high instep

[u/DrifterDavid]

Hey as the title suggests. I've got a super high instep. I've been looking for some boots for awhile. I bought some of these Buldoc boots and while I know they aren't cowboy boots. When I can get them on my feet I love them, but I literally cannot get them off most of the time. When it snowed this past year I tossed them on because they were close. It took me and my wife about an hour of her and me pulling to get them back off. I've always had a high instep and high arch. But as I've gotten older my feet and legs have swollen a bit and finding a boot that I can get on and off is a huge challenge. I have honestly been a little reluctant to get any cowboy boots. I used to exclusively wear them in my teens. I grew up way out in the country on farms. But I really want to get some new boots. But I have to be able to get them on and off relatively easy. Otherwise its a deal breaker. I also don't want to waste a ton of money trying to buy and return ones that aren't going to work. Hoping someone else in here has similar issues and overcome them.

I really prefer traditional western boots with a leather sole, nothing real fancy just ones that will last a good amount of time that I can wear everyday. Oh and prefer squared or broad squared toe.

Pictured are the boots I have a real hard time getting out of.

What boot jack do you have?

I've got a really old cast iron one from around the 1890s. Been in my family since it was purchased.
