Roces sizing

[Timothy James Kelly]

I'm thinking about getting a pair of M12s but I'm stuck on sizing. I wear a 7 valo with the toe cut out and they're pretty tight on my foot. I can't fit in them without the toe cut. I'm thinking I should get a pair of size 8 M12s but will there be too much room in the shell being that it's a 9 shell? I also have a pair of real old Roces that are seem to be individual shell sizes because I have one 7.5 and one 8 shell. The 7.5 with 7.5 liner fits me pretty much perfectly. Will the 7.5 - 9 shell feel too big?

if a toe cut 7 is tight....you should totally be fine with a 7 shell un cut. Yup. Totally.

I'd think you would be ok but why would you want to skate the m12?

Skate them with Valo souls?

[Timothy James Kelly]

I'm not happy with any skates right now, just want to try M12s for the simplicity. Also they look really sweet.

[justinthursday]

why not put valo souls on those roces that fit you?

The skates are marked as being the same size and have the same size liner but the right skates shell is about a size bigger... :lol:

Sorry for the jack ass response and B. the skates still fit the exact same so yes, the 7.5 will be perfect.

Wait so...

Roces have a different mold for each shell size? I thought they were a 6-7 and 8-9.

They are... These are real old though. I'm not sure the model, similar but not M12s. The difference in shell size doesn't seem to be as big as the difference in todays standards but they're definitely different.
