ilyazhito Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 How do Graf skate sizes compare to standard shoe sizes? BTW, I wear a Bauer Elite skate in Fit 2, size 8.0, one size less than my normal 9D shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that those would be a bit long for you. Here is also a picture of the box size chart. However, we had ordered a size 8.5 in the same skate and it felt way, way smaller. Those seems to fit the typical Graf sizing of the past which is you chose one less than your shoe size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilyazhito Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 That makes sense. If I ever need new skates, I'll look for a pair of size 8s then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wear a Bauer 8 and go to Graf, I would ger a size 8.5 in Graf. 8 would be too small. My son's wears 8.5 in Bauer and True and a 8.5 in Graf are way too small even in a performance tight fit. Another, goalie coach from Canada who I spoke to had the same experience for sizing. Edited April 24, 2022 by Patrick Better explanation needed.

Interesting. That means that in my case, Graf would only be a half size down from my regular shoe size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told that Graf is usually .5 bigger than Bauer. As far as street shoes goes, I can't tell. In our case, My son wear a size 10 shoe and fits in a Bauer 8.5 fit 1 and a Graf 9.0 Regular. I don't fit people on a regular basis, I am not an expert in the matter. I can only speak of my son's experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilyazhito Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 The recommended size for me in Bauer was 7.5, but I fit better in an 8.0. I believe I would also be in an 8.0 if I went with CCM, so I'm surprised that my Graf size would come out to be just a half size less than my street shoes.

Bauer recommends on their chart 1.5 down from U.S.your shoe size an Graf 1 down from your shoes size. But since you only go down 1 with Bauer....You would have to try in person.

SaveByRichter35 Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I wear size 10 shoes, 8D Bauer, and fit perfectly in 8D Graf skates. Two different model Graf skates, same size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilyazhito Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Wow, the skate to shoe fit is really all over the place. I'll have to go to the Gardens Ice House in Laurel or Pure Hockey in Sterling just to size myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is more to skate sizing than just foot length. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Posted July 28, 2022 Author Share Posted July 28, 2022 Sold. Should I leave it here for people to see details and photos about the skate model in generalor should we erase the thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
