We were heading from Maine to the Edge arena this weekend..passed Zwickers on the way. Our older…read moreson has been battling ankle pain for over a year and seemed to aggravate the area recently. He has been struggling with pain while skating so badly that he hasn't been able to skate for the past 2+ weeks. X-Rays and ortho consults aside, he has tried bunga pads, orthotics, foam donuts, punching at a pro-shop in Maine... and rest...nothing was cutting it. We thought we would have to buy new skates and take an extended period off to recover. Long story short- Stacey and Wayne at Zwickers took amazing care of us. Molded his boot perfectly to fit his humongous ankle bone comfortably and fixed his overpronation. Wayne also provided some heartfelt education to our stubborn 14 year old regarding mechanics and to speak up if he's in pain. He left the shop with zero pain and played in all 3 of his games this weekend that he originally thought he would have to sit out. Not only is he no longer in pain, but his mental health has greatly improved and we have the amazing professionals at Zwickers to thank for that. We will be taking the 4.5 hour long road trip to Zwickers for all hockey needs in the future. 100% worth it. Thank you Stacey and Wayne!!

I'm sure he made less than if he sold us new ones, but these were perfect for my daughter and her skating situation. Now he has what I'm sure is another in a long line of lifetime customers. If you shop anywhere else for skates, you've missed out.

He was very patient in explaining the gear to us. Would definitely recommend to all hockey parents!
