Skate Size

Bauer Supreme .7s
My left foot(9) is slightly bigger than my right foot(8.5) but my feet feel pretty comfortable in a size 8.5 D. I also tried a 9D and really didn't notice a difference other than having a little wiggle room for my toes. Should I have toe wiggle room? Never had it before in my other skates. Should I go with a 8.5D or 9D?

Also, might right foot is slightly wider than my left and I can feel some forefoot pressure with the D width. Should I go with the EE width? Would the baking of the skate shrink the EE slightly in case I have too much room?

Thanks!

I wouldn't count on baking a skate to make it smaller/shrink it. If anything, it will help break down the padding on the inside.

If your foot is only slightly wider do not go with a wider width. Supreme series is already a wide line of skates. The baking should take care of it and if not it can be punched out. Your fitter should tell you if you need a wider size. Same with length. Refer to the stickied guide at the time for an ideal fit.
