p88... I want to try the p28 but am worried cause I have really fluttery shots with the p92. I just dont know if its because its open though and the p28 would be better. 

I just have trouble with getting the puck up with the p88 unless I shoot off the toe.

I had the Nexus and it was huge. I needed the superfeet just to fill some space.

I tried on the Tacks and the boot itself was very comfortable and the wrap was awesome but the toebox was SO narrow compared to the boot. I felt the seams on both sides where the toebox started.

 

In the Supreme the tongue is partially lifted at my instep but it was a bit the the Nexus also (both EE width), but nothing  like the Ribcore.

 

Mine are like this pic of the supreme 

the yellow is the tongue slightly lifted from the red eyelets.

 

I have NEVER seen a boot fit like the right where the eyelets are flush with the tongue

I had a similar issue . Unable to get good heel lock - started in a vapor d width , tried a supreme & got lace bite - my instep is too high . Ended up going down half a size in a vapor boot and ee width . Heel lock is now 100% - but have some negative space in the forefoot in the ee width . Seesaw lol, i know everyone is different but figured I would share that . I never tried a nexus boot . Contemplating trying out the ccm high end boots just for giggles to see . Slightly thicker socks or the form-fit footbeds with the 3 flaps on the toe box could aid in taking up negative forefoot space im thinking . 

 

Thats strange. Was the Supreme in D width? I couldnt even lace up the Vapors in EE, I could see felt from the tongue halfway down the skate because my foot was busting out (same issue with ribcore).
