MikeWhy 39 Report post Posted February 10, 2014 about a 9 shoe(depending on brand but typically 9) and those bauers were 8.5's with a d width..Correction I wear a size 10 shoe but I usually go up a little bit just because i usually have to get a bigger shoe for it too feel better because of the strain on the sides from my foot width Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vet88 674 Report post Posted February 10, 2014 How did you do the trace, heel against the wall? If you trace just the bottom of your foot on a piece of paper it doesn't accurately account for your heel shape. You need to put your heel against a wall and then measure to the longest toe.Assuming your length is right, at 9 5/8 (or 24.5cm) your feet are a tad smaller than mine in length (25cm). I wear a 6D in everything but Graf which is a 6.5R. These are perfect fits for me in length, you would have 2 mm more space. But you need EE in as wide a boot as you can find, EE adds another 1 to 2 mm's in length, depending on brand, so you might still be ok in a 6 or you might even slide down another 1/2 a size.I'm 4" in width and in a D, you have to find another 1/4 of an inch in width which isn't that hard. Nexus, Rbk, CCM in as wide as they make them. If the width still isn't right then get them stretched. A good quality boot will easily accommodate the extra mm or so you might need.

I Could even possibly go down to 7.5 i think. Your feet should just barely touch/feather the front of the toecap. If you have wide feet, don't go for a longer skate. They make wider (EE) skates for a reason... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
