Reebok pump feature

Oh no, I was just wondering. I already own the 12Ks. They fit the nicest of any skate I wore around. I have an issue with depth on the front of the ankle with every skate, so I'm used to it. I never get lace bite, I just need to tie them a little looser there.

Gotcha!
 
Not really. The air bladders push inwards on the ankle. It may or may not help fit/lock depending on your ankle shape.

I'm sure Reebok would have been pulled up for false advertising were comments like these incorrect.

"The Pump lets you control the amount of air in the skate’s internal chamber, eliminating the amount of natural gaps around the ankle. This goes towards customizing your fit, increasing foot stability and preventing heel lift......"

Of course there is the possibility that certain foot shapes will benefit from the system less than others but they (as I) can only make generalistic statements rather than cover all eventualities.

So (generally speaking), yes really.
