Honestly, a size 9.5 skate would probably work just fine for you, and would certainly be better than wearing player's skates.
As far as going down a size or more, that is between preference and foot shape. I actually go up a size to a size and a half. I wear size 13 and 14 shoes depending on the shoe, but I wear size 14 skates, because I am not a fan of toe stingers, which I battled with for a long time. I used to wear size 12 skates, but have since sized up, and am enjoying it so far.
