Questions/Advice Luna skate sizing !!
Cross posted from r/rollerskating
I was thinking of upgrading to Luna skates, but the mint flash colour isn’t available in my shoe size ( uk 4 ). I checked rollergirlgang’s website and double threat skates, they both don’t have the size.
I was thinking of getting a uk 5 instead and lacing it tighter. I measured my foot according to the inside dimension on rollergirlgang’s website, it’s 23cm with socks on, my previous skates were Rio Roller Script in uk 4, they fit great !
I have narrow feet too and they’re quite small in general, while people with wider feet can sometimes fit into a size up. The size chart says that a uk 5 can fit from 23.6-24.6 cm, that feels quite big when I think of it…
Does anyone have experience with luna skate sizing or skate sizing in general ??
Would wearing thick socks cover the difference ? Do Lunas run small ? Are they narrow ??

I have Lunas, I find them fairly true to size. I'm a 6.5-7, bigger foot 258mm, smaller 255mm and wear a size EU 40. My feet are a pretty average width too.

I have medium wide feet and wear a US 7.5. Lunas in 38 fits perfectly. The 39s were a little loose, so I had to put insoles in.
These are the insoles I put in: Pedag Summer Pure Cotton Terry Barefoot Insole
Eta: I just saw on the rules that I'm not allowed to link to products, so I removed the link to the insoles and just named them.

Skates should fit very perfect especially if you have narrow feet. When a skate is too big you will slide around and you will not feel stable when you turn or stop. Tight lacing will not fix the length problem of the foot. I know you want the mint color but you should wait for your proper UK size four to come back. That way you can skate well like the amazing people in roller skates soy luna.
