SPECS & SPECULATION ABOUT 265 BOOTS

About these skates: We know a lot about these, because we helped design them! They are a combination of the best features of the 125 and the 695:

  • 125/695 lace-to-toe design - Ideal for wide or narrow feet because you can adjust the feet yourself
  • 125/695 speed strap - also great for adjusting your skates just right. I like my laces tight but don't want my skates falling off... this helps. It also protects your laces during falling drills.
  • 125/695 hand-sorted highest quality leather construction
  • 695 interior support design - they feature the advanced speed skating counter between the inner and outer leather that wraps around your heel, under your instep, and around the side of the skates to support your foot and heel, prevent ankle rolls, and keep your boot in shape after hundreds of hard track miles. This is a great feature and one that no other manufacturer offers. Ask us more about it if you're interested.
  • Targa-style tongue - fastened with elastic so your boot tongue doesn't slip. Love us for this - Riedell had a tough time doing this in their US factory because of production issues and they wanted to throw this feature out, but we insisted because it SUCKS to skate with your tongue licking your arches every night!!
  • Sexy "retro" design - I know its a small thing, but the 90s graphics bugged us and we love the dually stripes. So we asked Riedell to break out their 60s logo and put the stripes back on.
  • Snyder style bolted speed-mount for the frames (nylon or aluminum). So regardless of which plates you choose, that means not the beginner mount with the longer plates, but a mount meant for an intermediate or advanced skater who knows how to lean.

Other features:
* We liked the "ever-dri" cambrill liner and 125 boot height / interior. But other girls tested our prototype and they convinced Riedell to add synthetic padding to the ankles. Both ways are good, so we sell them both ways - with and without the rolled, padded "collar" around the ankle.
* Liner has been changed to Drilex (from the Cambrill liner featured on the 125) - another wicking material that allows your foot to breathe and stay dry
* Stitch and turn padded drilex liner also means the boot is slightly higher on the ankle than the 125/695 design, but not by much.
* Finally, the only way they could put the elastic in for the tongue is to add a rubber outsole instead of leather. Not sure anyone will notice the difference, though.

* These boots are available with any combination of plates, wheels & bearings that Sin City Skates carries, or boots only.
