Are my skates too big?

[amyskates]

I’ve skated in these (Jackson Freestyle) for a couple of months now, and i’ve always felt they just fit right and never had any problems skating with it. I thought i wanted to do skating for fun, but i had a change of mind and want to take it serious. Hence, i wanna make sure everything will go right. But today i pulled out the insoles, and it shows that i scrunched my toes alot. But on the other hand, it fits just fine when i put my feet on top of it. Help me…i’m confused have i been wearing skates that are too big?

They look too big to me. Looks like you don't have your heel all the way back for one thing.

They may be a bit too big however if you feel fine in it and don’t see a big problem then I wouldn’t worry too much about it. If it was an issue you’d know.

I'd say they are a bit too big for you, and suggest you ask for suggestions on the best boot fitters in your area to get measured and fitted properly.

Definitely look too big - but what type of socks are you wearing? If you were originally planning to be a leisure/recreational skater I am sure they are fine. But if you want to take it more seriously then, sizing down and wearing skate socks or thinner socks will change your skate size for sure

Actually if they are planning to be a leisure/rec skater the skates should still fit or it's a bit dangerous. So yes, regardless, as we've all said upthread, the skates are too big!
