Custom Pro tacks?

[Ranger-#8 1]

I have been floating around from brand to brand, but nothing has really worked too well in ages. I have found CCM to have skate that fits closest but just not in one skate. I liked the heel in a D width protack, but the area was pinching like crazy so I tried a wide and it felt great minus the heel being too large now. I was wondering if i could order pro-tacks with D heel Wide forefoot, and a larger toebox?

That would be E width, A heel. Any CCM dealer, like Jimmy, could take care of that for you.

do they have a larger toecap or anything?

That would come with the same toebox as the normal E width skate. I don't know if you can get it any larger.

did you have the d width stretched out or heated. those two things help out quite alot in making a skate fit better. a skate will naturally soften when wearing it so i wouldnt worry alot about pinching because as the old saying goes"you can always make a skate bigger but you cant make it smaller"

But the toecap wont soften/get wider..

You can get a toe-box punched out, but not by much, and only in specific, concentrated areas.

Chadd, so CCM might do something like offer a regular, say, D sized skate, only with a bigger toe-box (via a custom order)? I think I might contact Jimmy just to see.....

If there is a slight pressure it can be fixed. If there is pain or significant pinching, get another skate.
