supreme 70's kill my heels

Recommended Posts

It feels like they aren't smooth by the heels as if they were made wrong, there is a ridge right around my heel bone, it's parallel to the skate blade. I managed to make it a bit better with a heat gun and a hammer but I can't get the ridge on the side, I Guess I'll have to get them punched

Has anyone else experience this? It's pretty painful

I had fitted a pair of skates that seemed fine until I hit the ice. I had nearly unbearable pain from each foot at a spot just below and ahead of the inside ankle bone. I skated right off the ice and unlaced them. Then walked across the street to a skate shop and had them baked plus punched out a small area on each boot. Let them cool outside in the cold air for a time and then went right to the ice. They fit like gloves now. It's amazing what can be done to a new pair of skates.

One of my customers had same problem. His feet are kinda on the flat side. The funny thing is that he spent about 7 hours in the shop the next day trying on all pairs of One90s in same size I had. I had to go and left him stay there all by himself for a couple of hours. I took his baked and sharpened skates back. He is going to be using them for recreational skating only. No matter how hard I tried to, I could not talk him out of buying more skates than he needed evenwhen he was buying the original 70s

The thing is they felt good untill after a few weeks of use

I skate like 5 times a week so it's quite a bit of use though

You might need to go to Reeboks. They have the wider heel in them and a pair with a pump will keep your heel in place if the heel is too loose but if sounds like you have a wide enough heel that you might not need a pump model.
