Fitting your skates is important. A comfortable fitting skate will allow for an enjoyable skating experience. Here are a
few tips to assist in selecting the correct size:

• Take measurements in the socks that will be used while skating.
• Stand on a sheet of paper.
• Have someone else place a mark at your longest toe and at your heel. The pen should be straight up and down to
determine the proper length.
• Remove the foot and measure the distance between both marks in inches; repeat with your second foot.
• Using the longer measurement of your two feet, select the most appropriate size. Do not select a size that is smaller
than the length of your longest foot.


Please note:
• Determining skate size by comparing to street shoe sizing is difficult as both are sized for different movements;
skates are sized to glide with little foot movement while shoes are sized to allow for more flex when walking.
• Skates generally have a snug fit to ensure the foot does not move; this type of fit may not suit everyone.
• Children may need a little extra room for growth.
• Increased sizing may be needed to accommodate wide feet comfortably.
