KID'S SKATES

Choose kids’ skates for every level – from first beginnings, through intermediate skaters, to top carbon skates for future champions.

Safety features: Skates should have a solid construction, firm ankle support, and a reliable foot-retention system (buckles, laces). They may also be equipped with a brake, although it is not essential.

Size: It is crucial that the skates fit the child’s feet correctly. Skates that are too large can increase the risk of injury. This is why adjustable skates that cover several sizes are an excellent choice, as they last longer as the child grows. Even carbon skates can be size-adjustable, using special internal inserts inside the boot.

Quality materials: Skates should be made from durable materials that withstand wear and tear while providing the necessary support and comfort.

Comfort: Children’s skates should be comfortable and well padded, allowing the child to skate for extended periods without pain or uncomfortable pressure.

Maneuverability: Skates should be agile and easy to control so children can maneuver easily and learn to skate with confidence. This is achieved with rockered frames and wheels of different sizes.

Good control: Children’s skates should offer good control over speed and direction, helping kids learn to skate while minimizing the risk of injury.

Design and style: Design also matters to children. An attractive look can motivate them to skate more and improve their skills.

Good ventilation: To prevent overheating and excessive sweating, skates should offer good ventilation. Some models feature removable liners that can be machine-washed.

Ensuring these factors helps provide children with a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable inline skating experience.
