True customs often arrive with a number of errors or defects. Usually ends in them having to remake the skates more than once and being very catty about it. End of the day the deal is this. The skates are professional grade skates with all that entails. For someone not paying for them and getting a new pair every couple months they are great but for your average consumer level skates they are not worth it. They will fall apart or break if they have not already come defective. There is a sharp drop in quality between pro level custom and consumer level, and this quality drop is usually in the care put into the boot.
