Back in the 80s I was a great skater. White boots, white all American plus wheels, a jump bar and had plugs instead of stoppers.

I've been skating on the sure grip sonic for almost a year now. Love the skates but the eyelets are pulling out. I've been staking hard on them 3 times a week for almost a year now. I want to buy my "last" pair of skates that the eyelets won't fall out. What do you recommend?

i had a pair and they’re good for indoor as long as you buy them with the indoor wheels. fair warning! the heel on my boots started to rip. It’s probably mostly because of the way i used to take them off (don’t pull from the top of the boot or it’ll rip!) . besides that they’re great

Man I got a big wide foot. Everywhere I go, they either don't have my size or they are way to pricey for me. I wear a 13.5 wide in shoes so I'm thinking a 14 in skates.

No in skates you go a size down. They’re supposed to be tight with a little space for your toes. So you don’t get blisters

Quick question, so the skates size is the same size as a general shoe size? Example, I wear 8.5 men's, does that mean I would get an 8 for the skates?
@iamsimongates

Depends on if you want it to feel tighter or looser. So I’m a 10.5 but my skates are a 10 because they are made out of leather and the leather stretches when it heats up like when you’re skating. So it just depends

No all skates will fit snug until you stretch them out cause they are made out of leather. Also depends on the brand some brands run big like for an example Nike and Addis’s in shoes don’t always fit the same even if it’s the same size
