Hi, I am a beginner adult skater struggling with my boots.
(Sorry for my poor English in advance!)
I have a very low instep, low arches, moderate to wide toe box and average heels.... yes, it's like duck’s feet.
Low instep and arches are a real pain because every time I wear heeled shoes my heels slipping out of them, and exactly the same problem is happening with my skate boots too. When I try to do any jumps, crossovers or turns, my heels are moving around in my boots so badly. (I lace up my boots as much as possible)
I’m currently wearing Jackson Classique and I feel my boots are so roomy on my instep(NOT the width), so I’m considering putting extra sponges or rubber foams between tongues and my feet.
Do you think it worth trying or a big NO-NO?
I want to hear your opinions.
Thanks for reading!
