Skates too wide...?

when i skate i go on my inside edges and my coach said that usually happens when boots are a little too wide. my skates fit perfectly at first and now that they are broken in a little bit they got wider. i usually wear super thin socks (like tights), would wearing normal socks and tying my skates tighter maybe help?

Skates too wide...?
Did you recently lose weight and that might have affected the size of feet b/c that happened to me i went down a shoe size. Since you can%26#039;t afford new skates(don%26#039;t worry the majority of us cant but new figure skates whenever we please either good figure skates are expensive) they have gel inserts (such as bunga pads) for any part of the skate that is too large. You can find them on about any figure skating site but the one i found with the most inserts was:http://www.icessorizeunlimited.com/site/... so dont fret your problem is fixable also ask your coach for more options
Reply:Sometimes you can add a padded insert (such as the dr. scholl%26#039;s inserts) into your skates to make them slightly smaller, but wearing thicker socks is not the best idea because skates are meant to be worn with thin socks since thick (or thicker socks) often times cause blisters. I would also suggest lacing your skates a little tighter, otherwise you may have to buy skates that aren%26#039;t as wide. Good luck!
Reply:My coach bought me these special pads that go in your sk8s 4 that problem. i think u can mabe get them @ disco sports
Reply:Try going back to the place where you bought your skates and perhaps they can help you to make them fit better.


You could also try adding an insert to see if that might help.
