Custom XXXX Skates x 2 + 1 More Pair

Recommended Posts

The guys in St Jerome did a great job on these skates. They were ordered, built, and shipped in lightning fast time. This was less than 10 days! Amazing work!

This pair requested 3.5" of extra Supreme white felt tongue for Super Flop. # 3 Stiffness, reinforced eyerow and eyelets, black eyelets due to stiffness/thickness in size 9.5 D width..

This pair requested extra thick white felt Supreme style tongue at standard length, # 4 stiffness(this player destroyed a custom XXXX in #3 stiffness. He is unbelievably hard on his boots.), extra ankle padding that was done in the Supreme Classic Gold ankle foam set-up, and a 9 eyelet skate with Selanne style missing second top eyelet. The skate is a 6.5 EE. I wear a 6 D and tried this skate on. As stiff as the boot is, with all the extra padding on the ankle and the felt tongue, it feels awesome. This skate is a beauty!!

Clarino wears very well. It won't dry as fast but the older Custom XXXXs with tan clarino I have done here all have intact interiors, no rips from a million miles of skating.

Depends on what is going on at the factory at the time the order is placed.

23 weeks for customs? Hate to break it to you, kid, but your order was NEVER placed.

The guy with the super stiff boot has no skates right now. He blew out the toe cap on the old customs about 10 days ago. He will be psyched to get these so fast.

Was there an upcharge for a rush service or were they just slow?

Just a quick question. When ordering custom skates what is the typical length that you'd add on to the tongues to have a fair emount of "flop"? 3.5" is obviously a bit much, so I'm just curious as to what an avg. would be.

I'm guessing this will be on PHEW in 3,2,1.. :angry:

I "flop" my tongues. I do it more because it feels like i get more mobility in my skates. I think the standard tongue length is perfect, these are just excessive.

about an inch longer than standard should be ok, or even half a size depending on the skate.
