NumberOneSeven

I know this is an old post but I just joined the forums hoping you can help. I bought a pair of Makos on ebay. They're brand new, in box, never baked (as far as I can tell), and never sharpened. They are a size 11.0 D. They're replacing an old pair of Easton SE2s of the same size. Although they are the same size and same manufacturer, the Makos are fitting differently lengthwise. I recently had my foot measured and have come to find out while my right foot is a definitely 11, my left one is slightly longer, almost pushing an extra half size. This was never an issue with my old skates, but my tips of my toes on my left are just pressed against the toe cap, while the right feels like its a perfect fit. I took them to a local hockey shop and had them try putting them on an expander overnight (although typically used for widening, we figured it was worth a shot). It seemed to help a very small amount, maybe in millimeters, but it still seems like its not fitting right. I got a really good deal on the skates ($350) and don't want to have to both resell them and give them up, but I also don't want to get stuck with a pair of skates that aren't truly going to work for me. For this reason I have yet to attempt to have both skates baked and form fitted, nor sharpened. So my main question I would like to ask is if you noticed any difference at all lengthwise after baking them and wearing them for a bit. Like I said, that left foot is just pushing it a tad, and if I could get a little more space I think it would be alright. I have a pair of mission roller hockey skates that fit a little small, but I've skated on them for years with no long term problems. But I also haven't skated on them in almost a year and have gotten used to the way all of my ice equipment feels. What would you suggest I do?
