Graf boot closest to Reebok 11k EE?

Searched for this, but couldn't find an answer--can any skate-fitting guru's tell me which Graf boot is closest in fit to the Reebok 11k boot? I wear 6.5EE in the 11k's, so also not sure the Graf width equivalent of Reebok EE.

709 would probably be the closest

Grafs come in Narrow, Regular and Wide. Depending on your foot, a number of different models may work for you. I would try a 705W in 11.5 or a 709 in R or W.

Great, thanks for the advice. I'm going to try to find a pair to try on locally. Another (perhaps stupid) question--will Graf's boot plus the Cobra holder result in a different pitch than the Reebok plus the E-Pro holder? (i.e., am I going to need to profile to get the pitch the same?)

The Grafs will put you a little more on your toes. If you do decide to go with them, try skating in them a couple times before making any changes to the profile. The first time will probably feel odd no matter what, but you may find you like it by the second or third time out.

As Chadd said, they will put you on your toes, which is great once you get used to it. The thing I dont like about them (and causes me to swap them for Tuuk's on every pair I get) is how stiff they are. By far the stiffest holder on the market. Some people like it, some dont.

Great advice. I'll give the forward pitch a shot before messing with the holders or the profile.

If you fill your Reebok's width-wise well, definitely go with the Graf W, the R's will be too narrow.
