THEM SKATES SHMEDIUM - Do They Fit?

[@Martz604]

Thanks for having me on so I can nerd out a bit on skate technology and sizing. I should also mention that I skate the US 10 Roces M12 for reference so very close fit wise between the Shmedium US 9-9.5 Them 909, US 8-9 Razors Cult (with the right liner and insole combo), and the US 10 Roces M12 which I actually also can use the US 9-9.5 Intuition Premiums with Superfeet insoles in surprisingly.

I remember as a kid riding some white roces in the 90s my feet grew into. This is BEFORE the soul plate and besides what issues one would have on em... they felt AMAZING. I skate a size 9 cult today.

[@tobyschnabelhuber]

Thanks, really helpful for me as I also skate US 10 M12 (with M v2 Intuitions or 9-9.5 premiums). What you described is very encouraging.

Very good information

[@martynbutcher9716]

Loved this you should do similar on the other skates you have used. Size matters 😂

I’ve never skated Them skates before and I thought the schmedium would be my size being a 267 MP. After some feedback from people who got the schmediums early I realized I might need a small. So I changed my order last minute before they shipped. Glad I did because the length is on point and I feel like it could be even tighter laterally. I would’ve been swimming in the schmediums. I would go so far to say that someone with a boney feet like me with a 270 MP could fit the small with intuitions.

All day. I actually fit tri’s SM beer shells with a razor thin second skin pretty well. But intuitions are def a no-go

(At a 275mm foot)

[@johnnyfiveneedsinput]

After hearing this, I'm curious if I could downsize to a small instead...?

[@auroraboelon2288]

I skate the 909s with RL1s size 8 small 🐚. The RL1s fit better in 908s same sm 🐚 though with 909s there is liner slippage but still works nice.

[@GeorgeWPush]

Wonder how they fit compared to Blanks 9.5

[@Martz604]

I also have the US 9-9.5 RB Blank SK skates and the Shmedium Them 909s might be a touch longer, you can feel it slightly in the toes but still very close. The Blanks are noticeably a wider feeling shell but I have only skated mine maybe three times so your mileage may vary.

They fit so good for my feet 😁

[@FamicStarr]

Hey man, I’m new to skating and I love the THEM 909s but I’m struggling with sizing. I measured my foot out to be just around 265mm. Would I be swimming in the shmediums, and should I opt for the small? I don’t get mondo sizes at all, cause I’m a U.S. Men’s 10.5/11 normally.

[@Martz604]

I would recommend getting a small shell for sure. As I mentioned in the video, I am a 278mm and the shmedium is perfect. The internal shell length of the shmedium is 289mm and the internal shell length of the small is 279mm which would be as close to perfect as you'd probably get with the Them 909 shell.

[@FamicStarr]

@@Martz604 Thanks for the reply. The small shell for the 909 ended up being the perfect length but waaay too narrow for my 12cm wide foot, but the intuition liner is incredible so i took it from my 909 and put it into a roces fifth element shell. That combo is much nicer and after a little heat molding its the best fit i could've asked for.

[@SkateswithAlex]

HELLP!!! I got them today and the left foot is touching the edge a bit painful but can ride . Is anything I can do it to make it better fit ? Also no point in sending back and get the medium ? Tks

[@iRollerboot]

I wouldn’t give up immediately, sounds uncomfortable but within the realm of resolution. This will sound weird, but try it - thin ass socks. It makes a difference. Sometimes profound. Try cheap dress socks. I use them anytime I need to squeeze in and it often helps. If you happen to have a thicker shock absorber, it will lift your heel up and bring your toes back some. Breaking the skates in may be painful, it often is, but it also may be what’s needed. There’s more remedies (heat gun/tennis ball, thinner liners (myfit second skins/ intuitions) etc etc. That being said, it is possible that none of this may work. Ultimately it’s your call. Best of luck friend.

[@SkateswithAlex]

Hi there , I’m also struggling with the sizes need some help do guess right. My left foot is 27.3 cm and my right 27cm , I want to get the wknd 909 but here where I live they only sale the Size S or M no shmedium, what should I get ??????please help as I don’t have other option here and their are running out 😢

[@iRollerboot]

If you are able to find cheap my fit second skin liners they should fit fine. They may honestly be pretty good with the stock liners.

[@iRollerboot]

The smalls*** mediums will be very big on you for sure.

[@SkateswithAlex]

Thanks a lot for answering, what is that fit liner is for? Sorry a newbie here
