will molding my skate help this problem

[khockey#3 0]

I have mission S400 and I love them but my left big toe the corner keeps getting pushed into the corner and sometimes gets annoying. I have not heated them yet but if I do could this solve my issue? It just seems that the toe box is alittle more narrow than normal.

A punch out would be better than simple heat molding.

Heat molding may allow your heel to settle in a bit and give your toe more room.

what exaclty does that mean?

I believe a punch out is where only a small section of the skate is heated and then pushed out from the inside.

Use Chadd's advice first. Heat molding will make your foot sit further back into the skate, thus giving your toes a bit more room in the box.

RustyBender is right about what a punch out is, and while Jimmy would probably know better than myself, I'm not sure how well punching a toe box would work due to the kind of materials the toe area is made out of.
