Wow this is great to hear.  Turns out Hudler is 5.75 which would be ideal for me.

 

Nice! Yeah just let me know if ya ever looking. They're 5.5 Reeboks

People that size down 3 sizes for skates arent actually wearing 3 size larger shoes.. they are wearing 3 size larger sneakers, and a decent amount of wiggle room in the toes at that.

 

 

I size down 2 - 2.5 vs a sneaker, but only 1-1.5 vs a well made dress shoe or boot that runs true to size.

Yeah most of the guys/girls here have said they're in sneaks or running shoes.

 

Although I swear I size 7 heel and a 4.75 skate so pretty close

this is a very good point. I wear 12-13 sneaker, depending on the brand, but I'm a 10.5-11EE boot depending on the brand.

I wear a 9.5EE skate preferably, though it really all depends on the skate.

It would be best to just use mm to measure shoe size, like they do in Asia.

Feet are just under 300mm and I wear 10ee vapor x:60 with my toes barely touching the cap

So where does a 10EE skate fall in mm? Most of us are in North America so we use what we've grown a custom too.

Not trying to be rude 😁

I traced that outline of my foot on a paper and measured the longest length, I forgot what the width was, I did this a while ago to order cycling road shoes.

 

Our way of sizing shoes & skates is just dumb
