How do you bake hockey skates for a custom fit?

To bake hockey skates for a custom fit, preheat an oven to the recommended temperature on the skate manufacturer's instructions. Remove the footbed and laces from the skates. Place the skates on a baking sheet and heat them in the oven for the specified time. After heating, put on thick socks and insert your feet into the warm skates. Lace them up snugly and stand for a few minutes to allow the skates to mold to your feet. Let the skates cool completely before removing them.
