The boots are very heavy. Not much sole support. I added inserts and I’m making them work but I would have preferred lighter weight

My nephew likes the skates. He wears them for two-hour sessions and doesn't have any complaints.The boot is very stiff. I cannot tighten or loosen when I tie the laces. Adjusting the lower lace holes is not possible.

The negative reviews are incredibly misleading and uninformed for these skates. For the price you pay you're getting quality entry level skates that'll work for recreation and beginners up to any kind of beer league hockey if you want them for it.They are indeed stiff in the eyelets but that comes with every skate you get and they'll need a break in period. You don't need to heat them either (though it's a common method of expediting the break in period), just give them a very good tug and tighten as you're lacing them and keep skating and retightening over time and they'll get nice and formed for you.The blade guards are also only meant for protecting the blades during shipment and are not for general use, so their cheapness isn't a ding on their quality either.Overall I'm really happy with these skates. Riedell makes great rollerskates and figure skates and is a classic American brand with good service and quality.

I don't think anyone read the instructions but on initial wear you have to use a hair dryer or something with a lot of heat to heat the top of the boot up to make it pliable to shape to your foot and be able to tighten the laces properly. And it works. Then it's like having your own custom fitted boot. They still have to have a broken in period too.These also come with unsharpened blades which need to be sharpened before first use.I love ice skating but just for fun and these are a good quality pair of skates from a reputable brand. The sizing is correct with plenty of room. I have to double up on socks but these are for men of course, and they don't rub my toes. For the price I'm pleased, I just wish they were totally ready to go out of the box.

SIZING/FIT: 3*+ The sizing was right on. I ordered a 12 and I normally get an 11.5. They fit great!- The laces can’t be tightened. I have tried to pull them together and the skate boot material is so stiff that they won’t tighten.COMFORT: 4*+ They have great cushion for the bottom of my foot.- Tightening them is an issue.CONSTRUCTION/QUALITY: 3.5*+ The blade is sharp and thick.+ The blade attachments are heavy duty and the blade is secured on well.+ The boots are very thick.- The boots don’t fold in at the laces so they can’t really be tightened.GENERAL EXPERIENCE: 2*- I would love to use these but as of now they’re unusable since the boots can’t tighten enough for me to feel comfortable wearing them on the ice.= These have so much potential, it's just really sad to see them fail.~~~RATING SYSTEM~~~LEGEND+ | These are positive comments about the product.- | These are negative comments about the product.= | These are neutral comments about the product.U | Updated information based on continued usage.-----Diamond's STAR RATING SYSTEM (What do my star ratings mean?):1 STAR - Completely unusable, would request a refund2 STAR - Meets minimum viable product requirements, wouldn't purchase it again3 STAR - It does what it should, but in a non-spectacular way, I may recommend it, but definitely with reservations4 STAR - I like it.
