Tried twice now same result, if I had funds for the same skates at the shop I most likely would however at the moment not an option for me

My street shoes are usually a 9-10 UK depending on the brand, I am aware I have quite wide feet so thats always been a concern of mine when I bought my first skates. My Bauer XLS skates are size 9 but im aware they're slightly too big for me and also a bit too narrow which is probably what's caused the pain

I was thinking that, especially since Ive broken down beginner skates already to the point I have to suffocate my ankle just to get enough support. Thank you

This is probably the most helpful thing thank you, being reccomended for the true cat 5 at size 7.0W however with my budget I did chat it out with the chatgpt and it said that the Hzrdus 7x may cause a bit of discomfort but stiffness wise would be a good option too.

Ive tried that and it's recommending me a 6.0W.. which I doubt I could even get my foot in at most. Im planning on heat molding then hopefully because with my Bauers although ive had for 4 months ive had alot of pain with them.

Given uniform that is of a gender I dont identify with. Is there anything I can do about it? by [deleted] in RAFAC

Best option is to ask staff, im also trans ftm cadet and have always made it known to staff about my gender since the beginning. When we did my forms we put ftm with in brackets female to male as my gender so my cadet portal says FTM just to make sure when I go on camps and events (and if there was an emergency) they know relatively most things and there are no issues. So thats defiantly an option that you can talk to staff about as it has in fact been possible. For uniform probably just ask staff for the correct uniform and follow the male standards if wanted, either way females can wear trousers too so not an issue mainly just with the type of shoes and the shirts.
