Agree. Those are made for those players in 1/4 sizes with different size left and right skates. Just go buy a shelf skate that fits your foot or have your own custom skates made.

It all happened at the right time..why not considered looking at pro stock if I’d be spending the same 350+ on retail?

If your feet have been hurting for 9 months, why aren't you already buying new skates? Pro stock skates are typically for a specific player's feet (not yours). I don't get the hype around pro stock skates. You're likely to get a better fit buying retail.

I didn’t know I was having issues with my skates until it was explained to me a week ago. I thought it was just normal this is the price you pay for hockey. I just started looking for skates and it happens to be right around the end of the NHL season so why not. Plus it’s 800-1000 skates at a super discounted price, that’s the hype to me atleast.

Dam, the pickings will be super slim then. Do you know if any other teams do something like that? AHL Wolves or anything like that?

Hello everyone, super pumped to find this site. I’ve been playing hockey for 10 months and I’m 27 (been a hockey fan my whole life). I need some fucking help with skates, I’m tired of my feet hurting. I know the end of the season is right around the corner and I looking for any info or help on getting pro stock gear or good skates at a good price.

I’ve played with a bunch of experienced players and when I talk with them about my skates they consistently tell me I should be having that type of pain, that my skates don’t fit. Does anyone have info on where I can NHL or AHL skates? Recommendations for skates for wide feet? (Currently wearing vapor X4 size 9 EE)
