Proper Skate Fit

The fit of your skates, along with Proper Skate Sharpening, is extremely important at every level of skating from beginner to advanced. If a skate is fit too large it will compromise your ability to skate for several reasons:

  1. Your foot will slip inside the boot making even the most basic moves difficult,
  2. The balance point on the blade will be too far back, again making even the most basic moves difficult - in particular skating backwards,
  3. You may get blisters due to rubbing in the boot,
  4. The boots will break down quickly because of the space in the boot.

You can expect to get approximately one year's use out of your skates. When you do outgrow your skates, we guarantee 1/3 of the original purchase price toward the price of a new skate when traded in within 18 months.

GUARANTEED TRADE-IN – We guarantee 1/3 of the purchase price back when skates are returned within 18 months.
