I just purchased a set of RB Crossfire II and I have a minor fit problem with the toe of my right foot. I have tried on a half size larger skate and they just didn't feel like a good fit, so I don't think I can go to a bigger size and have a skate that fits properly. My question is, does the liner compress or give any after wearing? Has anyone ever cut out a portion of the liner to relieve the tightness? Or do I just need to amputate the third toe of my right foot to give more room for the second? Odd thing is my left foot is a good fit and that's the one with the arthiritic ankle that's always swollen.
Any suggestions before I put down these wheels on concrete and have to keep them??

Okay, I'm in the process of returning the RB Crossfire II 90's and keeping the RB Crossfire TFS's I ordered a half size larger than my normal shoe size. The pinch in the toe area is gone and the boots fit snug enough to support the foot/ankle. I now have comfortable fit.

I'm glad they worked out. I don't check this category much, so if wanting to talk with IW, use the other one that is specific for asking us questions. This one is directed to the masses, which doesn't appear all that massive at the moment.

Thanks!
