Great skate for beginner

Verified Purchaser

6 months ago

They seem comfortable or else my daughter would have already complained. I like that I can expand the size. The rounded front makes it easier for kids to learn how to skate also. Looks like the ankle support is also substantial. Very easy to put on and to latch.

Couleur laisse à désirer

9 months ago

Ma fille a reçu ces patins en cadeaux par ses grands-parents, acheté neuf en magasin, et le blanc est jaunit comme si les patins étaient usagés. La ganse en plastique pour serrer en haut des chevilles est dure à faire serrer car celui-ci bloque dans le tissus gris, déçu du produit mais ils sont malgré tout fonctionnel

Q: How to make adjustment of sizes? Is it possible to re-use the skates? Say after an older kid was done using the skates as size 11; will the skates be able to re-set and re-use as size 8 for a younger kid?

Q: My 4.5 yo's shoes size is 11 ; feet are 17 cm. Would the bigger size (12 and up) be the one to buy in these circumstances? If she wears bid socks?

2 years ago

1 Answer

A: Yes, I would advise getting the bigger size as she is right at the end of the smaller size. They may be a little large still with thicker socks, but at least she will be able to grow into them in the coming seasons. We always advise to try on skates at a store if possible just to make sure.

Q: My daughters are 5 and wear a size 12 shoe. Should I get them the size 12 skate? It is for Christmas, so I dont want to bring them in to try it on and ruin the surprise.

2 years ago

1 Answer

A: Yes, that size should work and because they are adjustable they can continue to grow with them and you will hopefully get a few seasons out of them.
