  1. Hello!  I love the performance of the CCM lines, but I've had the hardest time finding the right fit.  My LHS tells me I have a standard width foot and medium volume.  I ended up getting Tacks 4092 in 8D.  My heels slip a lot relatively speaking and my mid-foot KILLS even after multiple skates and leaving the bottom laces very loose.  Do you think an EE width in the JetSpeed would be a good fit for me?  I am done taking the LHS's advice.  Thanks!

      Hello JS,

      My foot is 270mm long by 10cm wide.  I finally got a pair of Tacks 5092 in 7.5 D and they feel great!

      I did some deeper research and I noticed something interesting, I don't know if it coincidence or typo or what.  My pair of Tacks 5092 7.5 D made in VIETNAM says fits shoe size 9 US or 27cm.

      I also have another pair of Tacks 8.0 EE made in THAILAND says fits shoe size 9.5 US or 26.9 cm (odd right?) although I was swimming in these.

      I also have a pair of Bauer Supreme 8.0 D made in THAILAND that says fits shoe size 9.5 US or 26.8 cm.  I was also swimming in these skates.  

      So I am interested to see if there are more connections between the skate/shoe size comparisons depending on where they were manufactured.

      Hope you find this as interesting as me! :)

      Nevermind!  JR Boucicaut helped me out!  I was a whole size too big! :)
