nexusrage21 1 Report post Posted June 22, 2007 Basically, I need help finding skates that will be good for me. Unfortunately, my foor size is a 15-15.5, so it is very difficult. I was wearing reebok 6k's size 13E. and they were pretty good, but the boot broke down too much on me causing my foot to slip out a bit, (This is the best way for me to describe what happened: my skates were sometimes almost flat to the ground when I skated. Extreme suppination) this is killing my performance in league games, so I want to find new skates.I know that the best answer would be for me to go to a local shop and try skates on, but unfortately none of the shops around here carry size 13's, even 12's are few and far between. I was hoping maybe I could give a little bit of a decription and people might be able to help me out.Thanks in advanceHere we go: 6'3" 220lbfoot is flat and wide.I was told that tour skates might be good for my feet, can anyone give a second opinion on this? They seem to be priced in my range so that would be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You may also want to look at a frame that holds a larger wheelset, like the HUMER, to give you a bit more clearance.*you should get a 2 pairs made for you by a podiatrist, one for normal shoes, one for your skates.
