D=normal skate width

E=wide width for CCM and Reebok

EE=wide width for other brands.

thanks...

not doubting you, but seems that my D width missions are wider than my EE width missions? or is it due to the supplefit?

different models?

could be the cut of the boot. perhaps one bood i"s deeper than the other, or simply has less padding. Where does it feel wider, and what model(s)?

the older mission i've had were the proto vsi size 10D... the fit really nice and snug, even out of the box. two hockey sessions, and they were like a glove...

Recently, i've gotten a pair of size 10EE S500 boots... they seem to be a little more snug, especially on the middle portion of the foot...i've even tried wearing thinner socks than normal, and I know my footbed in these skates are wayyyyy thinner

It sounds like it may be an issue with the depth of the boot, but then again I think the S500s are supposed to be deep cut. It may be the softer boot that is meant to wrap more around your foot, especially as it gets softer near the top for more forward flex.
