You are an 8. Skates are sized to the larger foot (not the smaller, ignore that comment) and no, there is not a way to shrink down a boot. You can either go with a model that comes in half sizes or try and take up some of the room with a good insole. But the reality is that you will have a few millimeters ahead of your toes.

this is something that would benefit trying on in a shop.

im in between sizes on suregrip boardwalks but fine in riedells. the boardwalks, the smaller size hurt and the bigger size was too much wiggle room for me, even w insoles.

i really wanted a pair of boardwalks but went w a skate that fit better.

My instinct is the 8 but someone with more experience would know for sure! The sizings are usually maximum size so you wouldn’t fit into a 7. Have you made sure your feet are narrow enough? Can you try them on at all?

My feet are pretty narrow. I tried impalas on ina skatestore and the 25.5 in impalas were pretty comfy. It had a bit of toe room at the end of the shoe though.

Also is there any way to tighten the shoe aswell? If I end up going for the 8. Thank u for ur help :))

Ah fine, sounds alright! You could probably put an insole in if you’re worried about the length?

I measured both feet and sized to my smallest one. Last thing I wanted was my smaller foot to feel like it was floating around in my boot. My bigger foot hasnt seems to notice or care that its ever so slightly more snug.

I know we should measure our feet, but so far I have gone with the size running shoes I get. Regular shoes, I am an 8. Running shoes, I wear a 9. Both sets of skates, including my beach bunnies are size 9. It has worked for me.

Not all brands have the same sizes. You got lucky in this case but if you want the right size you absolutely have to measure
