I have worn Timberland boots on all three of my caminos, and currently have a new pair to wear on my fourth. If your current footwear fits and you cannot contact the other walker, you may just have to accept your replacement boots.

I hope that you have contacted someone at your last night's accommodation to pass on this information.
