beaucoup_fish 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2004 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!

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?

mojo122 538 Report post Posted November 22, 2004 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lee92 2 Report post Posted November 22, 2004 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bob 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2004 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.
