Not even SportsAuthority.com has men’s figure skates. What the hell. *mutter* I called the people at NewSkates.com, which is where I bought my skates, and got a return code for the skates I had and talked to the woman there who said that she probably wouldn’t bother trying to order men’s skates from them, because their men’s skates are cut in medium widths and she suspects a medium width isn’t going to be any wider than a women’s wide.
