Inline skates too big... help!?

good afternoon ladies and gentlemen!


i accidentally bought my skates the same size as my shoes... and they're about a size and a half too big.


i've been wearing three pairs of socks when i play hockey, but i still get blisters on my heel.


should i go up to 4 pairs of socks, or should i just purchase a new pair of skates?


do you have any other suggestions for my problem?!


thanks!

buy new ones. if your feet are still growing, your feet will fit them with time, and if your feet have stop growing, buy new ones because it's just a pain in the but
Reply:Why would you buy something, withouth trying it on, to see if it fits? Even if your a size 10, lets say, different shoe companies shoes fit differently. So, with skates, it almost a no-brainer. My advice, suck it up, buy skates that fit, and start trying things on, before you buy them.
Reply:if they were expensive buy a bigger liner for the skates. If you want to do it like how i do it just take paper. like you find in your new shoes and shove that in the toe to make your skates smaller. if you bought the skates for cheap just buy a new pair =]
Reply:sounds like your heel is moving around in the back of your skates. You can try using a skate tightener to get your skates as tight as possible, but i had the same problem with a pair of Nike air zoom skates. i threw them away.
Reply:First off see if you can exchange the pair you have. If not and you have the money buy a new pair. 1 thing though wearing 3 pairs of socks or even 4 pairs might give you a nasty case of athletes foot, so be careful there and also Have Fun!!!!
Reply:Why did you buy skates without trying them on?
Reply:do you tape up your feet too
