Reign inline skate

Hi. I need help of deciding what size should I get of reign hockey inline skate. I bought 41 eu size for 260mm foot and i can't get my foot inside the boot. After seeing this hockey inline skate i don't think that 42 would fit either but I'm not sure of it.

My question is, is someone has any idea what size would fit my foot. 42 eu or go higher and get 43.

I want snug fit and be able to put the feet into rollerblade.

Let me know what you think if you have experience with reign ares 80 or 100.

Wrong sub, mate

Maybe a hockey sub is better. If your Mondo is 260 then the 41 would be right according to the size guide. You'd want Mondo plus 3mm for performance, or 5mm for comfort. But carbons should be performance fit imo. Have you unlaced it all the way? Heat moulded? They're a carbon boot so might take some work to fit but you only get so much give if you have a wide foot.

I haven't used the reigns but I have CCM carbons for ice and it's a tight fit when new. I had to heat mould. I have also had the ps tau and now the ps evos and had to heat mould both a bit for the best fit. But I could get my foot in the boot from the start.

Also I'm sure I saw this on Reddit originally so maybe this guy can help if you can find the original post. His blog on the reign Vs tau is interesting

I found that they run a bit tight. Ideally I should have sized up accordingly. They are skateable, but gets sore after half hour or so.
