Will baking expand the D1 boot at all or will time and use pack out the boot?
I just purchased Mission D1's and got them at what I believe is a great price ($199). Upon first putting on the D1's they feel pretty tight. My big toe on my right foot is pretty much flush against the front of the skate.
Went to the store to make sure they would fit before buying them but could only find an RX in an 11 and the D3 in a 12. The first was too small and the latter was too big. I bought the D1 at 11.5 which is my precise shoe size. My right foot is exactly an 11.5, my left is more like 11.25. I wear a 9.5 CCM 752 Tack which is the equivalent of an 11.5 Mission skate and it feels fine.
Any thoughts would be appreciated, I would rather not send them back, the shipping was kind of costly ($15), but I can't deal with the idea of having $200 skates that are too small!
