The Graf foot beds are one of the best foot beds made. The material they are constructed from helps to mold to your actual foot shape and provide excellent support and comfort. What you may want to look for is the actual arch of your skate boot. Some skates have a higher arch in the foot plate than others.

They should. Just use your old footbeds as a template to trim the Graf ones to size.

Yes, I thought at first that these are only made for graf skates, but a manager at total hockey told me that they fit in all skates and that you just have to match it to the currant footbed and trim it. I have these in my Bauer Vapor X40s and they fit perfectly.

get the XL size. Take out your old insoles and cut the new ones around the old ones.

We would suggest going with an XL, skate size 11-12 and trimming the footbed to fit a 10.5 skate. It would be better to have it be too big and have to trim it, then it being to small for the skate.

Replace your old footbeds with the Graf ones. Nylon is one of the materials used in the footbeds.

Ideally you would want to remove the stock footbed and replace it wil the Concept 3D footbeds. The nylon shell refers to a coating that is on the 3D footbed itself.

The Graf foot beds are designed to create more comfort and stability. They are definitely one of the best foot beds manufactured today. If you have specific needs you may want to have a foot bed specially designed to fit those needs.

No, you don't need to heat these footbeds, because they are already made to fit to your feet perfectly. I have a pair and put them in my Bauer Vapor X40s and went right on the ice with them. They are amazing.

No, these are not the same footbeds that come in graf skates. Graf puts a generic footbed in all there skates. The Graf Concept 3D footbeds feature a 3D mold that when aided by the Nylon shell, provide ample support to maintain and improve your arches and increase your stability.

With the Graf Footbeds, the length of the skate is the most important aspect in purchasing the footbed. Regardless of the width, you will want to get the footbed that matches up with the length of the skate. For a 7.5W skate, you will want to go with a size medium footbed.

Question
Size for 8.5 skate?
What size Graf Concept 3D Footbed should I try with a size 8.5 skate? The Graf sizing chart doesn't cover some half sizes:
Sizing (in skate size):
Small (5-6)
Medium (7-8)
Large (9-10)
X Large (11-12)
I have looked at the Medium but it is about 2mm short of completely filling the boot.

Your best bet is to get the large size and trim the foot bed down to ensure a proper fit.

The insoles themselves are not heat moldable but they may remain in your skates when you bake them.
