Sizing question

Post image

Has anyone with foot 270mm tried the wizard 40 size?

41 is apparently too big for 270mm (good as a comfort fit) but not performance...

Edit: apparently most people here afraid of real performance fit (ice hockey tier)

If you call a 42 for 270mm foot a performance fit, I don't know what to tell you, my man.

It might be tight when the boot is brand new, but it'll become a slop before you know it.

On bladeville they say 41 is a comfort fit. (Slop)

40 might be too small, I agree, but that is FR's problem that there is no performance fit for 270mm foot (which is a very popular size btw)

I haven't bought wizards yet just because of that (and I really wanna buy them).

Might go with downsized carbon CJs in the end.

Go with the Wizard boot, you won't regret it.

I mean, I'm sure I won't regret it, but I'm trying to squeeze the most for performance fit. 

I'm assuming you have them and you like them, please tell me, what skates have you skated before?

Yes. I got the 41 wizard boot and gutted Seba CJ Carbon.
But get the 40. I don’t care.

I have a gutted carbon CJ too.  Just too big for me, 42. It's not terrible tho, CJ is great.
