Will these reworked custom boots work?

 So I've got back the boots. They went to the bootfitter, and again, I haven't been provided a tracking number by Riedell. The bootfitter works just 3 days per week, I don't know when he got the boots, I'm sure he would have called eventually, I just had a feeling that they may have arrived, and I got to him first. I got appointment for next week. He will prepare the soles to be water proof and mount the blades on the temporary slots.

So, at the bootfitter appointment, the boots were warmed in the special oven and I put the old superfeet insoles in. The check list:

-Good news, they fit in lenght, the left leg is only very slightly too long. 

-Pain under my right heel. I put in the custom Riedell insoles because I forgot my new superfeet insoles home and I didn't want to cut the old ones that fit perfectly in my old boots. I think is from the insole. 

-The heel keeps popping up. The bootfitter thinks the raised heel of the insole (that adjust pronation) makes my heel pop up from the boot heel pocket. So much for custom boots, that allowance should have been made for that height difference. I hope the superfit insoles will fit better.  I'm choosing to not think about it.

-The outside/ wood heel was changed. On the first try on these custom boots, they put a new style heel that was higher than my previous one, and I felt pushed forward.  I couldn't wait to get home to measure, I was betting in my head that now the proportion between the sole and outside heel height is too small. I didn't say anything about that.

-The worrisome thing is that I felt the right feet (the one that pronates) is falling badly towards inside. What I see in the boots is that they are narrow at toes and heel but very bulky/ open  in the arch area, and the foot collapses into that space. I took them off and we looked with the bootfitter and the right boot is visibly more open/ wide in the arch area than the left boot. The idea is that they will mold on my feet, but that means they will mold collapsed. The bootfitter said to leave them with him he'll warm them and straighten them.

- On ice, intense pain on shims from the tongue digging in. I felt the tongue shorter but we compared to the old boots, it is the same. It will need to break in at ankle so it will curve. Intense rubbing on my right big toe. As I took the boot off, the tongue is not set perfectly smooth. The bootfiter raised the toe slightly, and in time that eventually will go away, smooth itself.

- I went back on ice, we tried to adjust the blade, the blister burst and the shins and heels were hurting badly, and as the boots had to left there to be hopefully straighten, I chosen to stop and come back with fresh legs.

The bootfitter is very experienced and very kind and patient. I'm sure he will do all he can...

My hope level for these to work is "intense doubt".
