Good product

The skates arrived in a short space of time and were well packaged. I bought my usual shoe size - UK size 9 (EU 43). They are a snug fit, but I think it takes that for the boot to "grip" your foot - there's no point in your foot rattling about inside an ice skate - just my personal opinion..!! I also wear 2 pairs of socks! They did rub a bit at first, but I presume they have moulded to the shape of my feet as that's no longer an issue. I would use them once every few weeks and have had them sharpened a few times in 6 months, only because I felt they should be. Loads better than the hockey skates I had been using. I managed to pass grades 4 and 5 in them! To sum up, sturdy, durable, comfortable and good value - I'm very, very pleased with them.

I was aware that these are on the lower end of the scale for quality but I didn't want to spend £200 on a pair of skates that my daughter will grow out of in 6 months and probably get bored of skating (when she realises how hard it is!). I got the blades sharpened and so far they are doing well. My daughter has used them about 6 times. We're still playing about with getting the laces right in terms of being tight enough around the ankle but soft enough around the leg to allow her to bend. We bought some skate tape which was so worth it otherwise they'd be scuffed up already. My daughter reports that they are really comfortable, so much more than hire skates which she couldn't bear.

I bought these after much research, and the reviews were great for these cheap little skates. But, always dubious, I did think maybe they wouldn't be so great for me, seeing as though I have fat little feet! I was however extremely pleased after an hour skating. The fit was perfect, although I probably would have got away with buying my actual size 5, but went a size up just in case. No pinching, no aching feet, and the skates came sharpened to perfection! I would definitely recommend these, and honestly, for this price, you won't find a better skate. Oh, also, the delivery was fast. Five stars, would've given more if I could!!!

My daughter loved it, it is the best ones that she ever received!! Just needs to be sharpend!! 5/5I recommend you to buy these ones!

The skates arrived extremely promptly. I am a size 5.5 but my feet are quite narrow - I ordered the size 5 and they are plenty big enough even with thick skiing socks. The faux leather felt quite stiff around my ankles but I was able to pull the laces tight enough for a good fit. I have worn these once - did not have to get blades sharpened first. I actually found them to be more comfortable than I was expecting!!!! They are a bargain and looked good on. Happy with purchase and they do come with basic skate guards and the box they are packaged in looks professional rather than cheap.

Very nice looking skates. Feel well made and very sturdy. Nice blade on them. Feel sharp.

If you are looking to take skating lessons or plan to skate regularly, please save your money and put it towards better skates. These ones won’t last!These skates don’t come sharpened, no new skates do. So I took them to my local skate shop to be examined by a professional and he concluded that they weren’t even worth having sharpened. They would last no more than 6 months of regular use, the boot is too soft and won’t give enough support, the blade barely has any curve, and they are certainly not safe for jumps. For double the price, I bought a proper pair of skates that will last a good two years and are safe for doing jumps. I would advise anyone else to do the same. Please don’t compromise on good quality, even if it means spending a bit more money!However, if you want a cheaper pair of skates to knock around in or want beginner skates for a child, these should be fine. Just keep in mind that skates should be a tight fit, usually a size below your regular shoe size. They will loosen and shape to your feet as you break them in. I am a UK 5 so I ordered a 38 and while the skates felt comfortable to wear, the professional at the skate shop said they are too big for me. My ice hockey skates are a UK 3.5 and my new figure skates are now a 37. Buying the right size is important as it will affect how easily you can skate!In the end, I was able to send these back for a full refund which is good, despite the fact it took a few weeks to process.
