Supreme one90 skates

I wouldn't take a heat gun to them... I would let your LHS heat them again. They can be molded up to 3 times.

Molding with a heat gun could be bad, the heat would no distribute evenly threw out the boot.

If he's spot-heating a skate, a heatgun will be fine. Just dont jam it into the foot...remember a heat gun goes up to 1000 degrees, when the oven goes up to 200. Distance and time are important.

Yeah I'm just heating up a particular spot of the skate. How long and how far away should I heat up the interior of the boot for? And do i also heat up the exterior as well?

[JR Boucicaut 3815]

Use discretion...I just wave it around for 5-10 seconds...both exterior and interior. About 9" or so.

i did it earlier this evening. i heated it both interior and exterior until it got warm (not hot). you can literally mold the back heel with your hands!

I'm rather disapointed.. My LHS could only get me a returned pair of One90s in my size. They were obviously used, had different laces, etc. I tried them on and it just didn't feel good at all. Makes sense seeing they were probably molded for someone elses foot.

Anywho, lace em up, and sure enough, negative space and all- my right foot is still a little crooked. He said it looks like a natural misalignment, and something I may just need to adjust to. Where I'm rather new on skates, it's something I might just be thinking about too much.

He really advised me not to dump $500+ in effort to work around it.

Really odd though- my current skate is a RBK 9K size 7.5E... He had me try on a 7K Pump in the same size in regular width. It felt more comfortable than my skates. He's trying to convince me I don't need wide widths
