Ankles getting ripped up

Recommended Posts

So I skated in a new pair of Supreme 8000s for the first time last week. Had them baked too, but they tore up a hole at the side of my ankle pretty bad where edge above the top eyelet is....

Anyone know if this is just a break in problem or will this persist? Thanks!

That is the problem I had before.

DO you wear socks?

Make sure they go higher up than the ankle.

Yeah, I wear the underarmour workout sock...they go past the ankle for sure...the blister/scrape thing is like 2 inches above the bulbous bone in my ankle...did it go away for your or am i gonna have to do some annoying shit like tape it?

Think I can sand down the edge to make it softer and not quite so abrasive?

I had the same problem with my 7000's, only on the right ankle though. As the skates slowly broke in, the bleeding went away for me.

i had the same problem, i think, with my graf 703's. on the inside of my right foot, above the top eyelet, the boot would rip a nasty gash in my foot. i didn't wear socks at the time, but it went away after a week or 2 of skating in them

I had an annoying running on the outside of my wight ankle with my new Pure Flys.

I've been taping my ankle up to make it go away.

Although, I forgot to tape up last week and nothing happened.

The rubbing from the top of the backs of my Vapor 8s on my calves was waaaay worse though.
