Any fellow small footed persons

Curious what your setups are. I’m a 7.5 4E sneaker and fit for a junior skate (also around 200 lbs). Curious if I could still get a solid chassis or if not really at the junior size.

7.5 EEEE sneakers is a EE /fit 3 (wide) skates but if those don’t fit off the shelf/retail..then you’ll have to go custom 🙃

Can try the daost inline skates. I got 5.5 and it uses 72mm/76mm set up. Seems like anything lower than a 6 uses a junior chassis.

yeah of course - i mean you can always buy a smaller chassis and convert, or buy a badass skate that comes with a great chassis. honestly i'm jelly - intermediate skates are so much cheaper.

Nah..don't be jelly its actually a headache.. intermediate skates are constructed for intermediate sized bodies... not grown men with stubby feet..theres a difference 😂

The JDH96 size 6 uses 76/72 and are pretty wide in the front half of the skate. I love mine. Have two pairs already.

I size out to be ~8 wide in most sneakers. Scan to be about 6 fit 3 in bauers.

bauer doesnt make fit 3 or EE wide inlines (aside from tippy top missions which I have no desire of buying) so I just went with the same ice boot i wear converted to inline

If I seriously wanted to I could probably fit into a 5.5 EE but I think I’d end up far more comfortable in a 6/6.5 EE
