I've posted updated pictures of a new pair I have for sale in post two (the original new pair I was selling sold on eBay - these are the last ones I have).

I have a question: if they fit like 7.5D in Bauer, how come the holder is 272? The holder on the 7 and 7.5D Bauers is 263.

They fit similar lengthwise to a 7.5 Bauer. You are right that a 7.5D Bauer takes a 263mm holder, but a 272mm holder would fit. Bauer does use 272mm holders on 7.5EE skates.

 

They don't fit exactly like any Bauer skate - I only used the 7.5 as an example for length. If I had to compare them to a Bauer skate I'd say they're closest to a 7.5EE Supreme, but with a narrower heel. The KORs are more responsive to heat though and are meant to be baked for 10 minutes which is at least double the baking time of most Bauers. After you bake them the entire silver/grey section feels very pliable, almost like Play Doh, and you can push the sides to help it take the shape of your feet and then they stiffen up again after they've fully cooled. The only parts that won't change shape are the plastic toe box and the black carbon fibre.
