Reebok Ribcor vs Bauer sizing

[Anjin-san 29]

Can anyone out there advise how the sizing for Reebok Ribcor skates compares to Bauer skate sizing? I'm currently in 7D Bauer Supremes and I have a chance to get a a pair of Reebok Ribcor skates (2014 model) in 7D for a good price. I'm wondering if the sizing is the same. Thanks!

I wear a 7 Vapor and drop to 6.5 in the Ribcor. YMMV.

Are your Ribcor's Reebok or CCM?

Rbk Ribcors should match size, CCM ribcors (up to 50ks) you drop to 6.5.

Just wanted to post an update. I received my Reebok Ribcors (2014) in size 7D and they do in fact fit very similarly in length to my Supreme MX3's. The heel is definitely more snug when compared to the MX3's, which is a welcomed difference. It seems that after two years of regular use the ankle padding in my MX3's has packed/broken down a bit. This has resulted in heel slippage, which never use to be an issue. As a result lately I've had to really crank down on the 3rd and 4th eyelets from the top. However I then have even less forward flex.

I'm hoping that with the Ribcor's narrower heel, pumps, and more flexible boot/design I'll be able to have solid heel lock and additional forward flex.
