I to sold skates, i worked in a sports store for eight years. The rule of thumb is one size lower than your shoe size but like boblobla said above everyone is different. Your toes should just be lightly brushing the end of the skate. Try one size below and see how it feels and work from there. Boblobla's advice is dead on, exact same advice i would give as a fellow old skate seller.
