Return to article: How to Buy Skates
on 11/22/2005 Since the foot changes its size when weight is applied, it's important to have a stable and supportive platform under the foot to reduce this "elongation." Buying skates that are sized when you have no weight on your foot (with a footbed such as Superfeet, ShockDoctor, or Instaprint) works to keep the foot from changing size and shape. Custom insoles will reduce the elongation effect with even greater success.
