Spray paint it gold, cover it with sparkles and use it as a sled for a santa doll at christmas.

I was thinking about it as an "autograph" skate or for someone who has two different-sized feet.

It was an interesting search result. 

I was looking for a good pair of used Riedell 6.5 WIDE or Jackson 6 skates for a new adult freestyle skater, but ... she needs two boots!

Sounds like a future art project!

I was just going to post a size 7 Jackson Premiere that were custom ordered with a size E toe box and AA heel. It's a pretty drastic split width size, I was going to ask $75 OBO + shipping for them. Not sure if those would work but I thought that was a reasonable price. They were only worn for about 4 months.

Interestingly, we currently have a Harlick 7.5 (also for sale), Jackson 7, and Riedell 6 and they are all roughly the same length, each with the e/aa split width. I wish sizing were a more standardized, it would be so much easier! Also, for the first time ever, we met another girl at the rink with the same crazy foot shape which we affectionately call "duck feet".

It says it's a 6.5C with a 12 2/8 blade - that seems like a very long blade!

I have Harlicks 6.5 C. I have 9 1/4" blades on it.  I don't see how you can get 12 inch ones on there.

My Premieres are A heel and EEE ball/toe box. I must have the same duck feet! Quack, quack.
