Fastest way to break in my Hockey skates??
Most places that sell skates have a machine that "bakes" your skates after you buy them. How it works is, you put your skates on and then your feet go into a machine. The air is compressed and then the chamber gets hot (doesn't hurt) and the skates form to the curves and layout of your feet. It still takes a skate or two to get truly used to them, but baking really helps.
Reply:you could just walk around in them and skate a little bit in them leisurely, not in a game.


there's a store or a place that people can "bake" your skates. You then would sit there when they are done and your skate "molds" to your feet so that when you put them on they are comfy Report It

Reply:treat them like a new baseball glove: get them wet; wrap something like a wooden foot in them; wrap them with rawhide laces with the wooden thing inside. I haven't tried this but I heard that it works. Read the skate's box for warnings. Report It

Reply:okay i actually wasnt gonna answer this but i saw the ans of putting it in the oven for ten minutes... DONT!!!





hmm.. go to the shop you bought your skates from.. if you bought from walmart [i dont know if there are.. since there isnt a walmart here in my country, and i heard it sells EVERYTHING.. -shrugs-], go to the pro shop at the rink...





i assume the pro shop everybody meant is the one that specialises in ice skates... i only have one shop in my country so i think that is it.





some skates are not heat moldable, which is what they meant by heating it with your feet.. you have to check that out.. the shop you got them from/pro shop may help you with the question.. bring your skates there too!





i own figure skates, even though i dont figure skate, and i find that wearing them in the house with skate guards, going skating as per usual helped.. dont go skating too often just to break into your skates... i'm not sure if it hurts to wear new hockey skates...





if it's heat moldable, get the molding done at the pro shop if you're not sure..





if you have friends who own hockey skates.. that'd be great source of advice... better than anything. experience is of course better..





this is harlick's faq.. quite helpful i think

Reply:The best way is to go skate hard. You can also put blade guards on them and wear them around the house.
Reply:Rigorous skating.
Reply:put them in the oven for 10 minues in low temp


I'm not kiddin'
Reply:The best way to break in your skates is to wear them, pick yourself up a pair of skate guards and spend some quality time with your skates, wear them around your house, while you watch TV, make food etc. and before you know it, they'll fit like a glove. Also make sure you time them nice and tightly so that they can 'form' to your foot. The accelerated method involves the use of a moist sock, I believe it helps to loosten the skate and then it dries and hardens in position.
