How to find the perfect ice skates for you

Ready to hit the local ice rink or the frozen lake? What kind of ice skates should you choose? Here's your answer.

Winter is here, and that means it's time to go ice skating with your friends and family.

We've created a guide to help you easily decide whether Ice Hockey Skates, Figure Skates, or Hybrid Skates are the best choice for you.

Hybrid skates: The perfect choice for recreational ice skating

Looking for a comfortable ice skate with excellent stability and control? Hybrid skates are the answer, and they're perfect for kids, beginners, and intermediate skaters.

The soft and padded inner boot ensures that your feet stay warm and happy, avoiding sore feet. The hard outer shell helps you achieve the right stance and provides optimal power transfer.

With a hockey blade, these skates offer speed, maneuverability, and stability. Find your new hybrid skates right here.

Figure Skates: Jumping and dancing on ice

Dreaming of dancing on the ice or looking for an old-school pair of ice skates? These skates are the right choice.

The boot is flexible and maneuverable for performing tricks on the ice. The long blade adds stability when moving forward or backward, making it easier to maintain balance.

Pirouettes, jumps, and push-offs are a breeze thanks to the toe picks at the front of the blade. This also aids in controlling the skates.

The high heel provides a perfect balance point, making it easier to get into the right positions for ice dancing. Check out our huge selection of figure skates here.

Ice Hockey Skates: Fast and agile

These are a must-have for ice hockey players, but they are also great for recreational use and suitable for both beginners and pros.

Ice hockey skates are fast and highly maneuverable, thanks to the stiff boot that locks your heel in place, giving you the right stance and maximum power transfer.

The cuff provides high stability around the ankle, with enough room around the shin for fast-paced maneuvers. Additionally, the hard boot protects against shots and slaps.

Ice hockey skates feel almost like inline freestyle skates due to the similar heel construction, making them perfect for inline skaters wanting to stay in shape during winter. See all our Ice Hockey skates right here.
