Skate Sizing


Choosing the correct skate size is a very important task and usually even more important than choosing the skate model! All high-quality skates will have a break-in period and will adjust over time to the skater’s feet. Some will take longer and some shorter, but while you want to have a comfortable ride you do not want to have the skates too loose… The correct fit will determine much more than just the comfort - it will define how much control, power transfer, and agility you would have while skating, and even would affect the balance.

Please remember that the skates will feel the worst when you try them for the first time and from there the fit will only improve!!!

While various skating styles and skaters themselves have different preferences, below are the general instructions on how to determine the perfect fit for your new skates.

WHAT SIZE SHOULD I CHOOSE?

Most inline and roller skates are manufactured and sold in European sizes (EU), so your US / UK sizing could be a wrong idea to use due to conversion inaccuracies. Furthermore, even if you know your European sizing, every shoe and skate manufacturer has a slightly different fit and sizing, therefore your standard shoe size might not assure a perfect fit but that is the best way to estimate your skate size. In any case, the inline and roller skate size should be either equal to your shoe size or no more than one size up or down from it.

Based on our experience, the best way to determine your skate size is to take a look at your current pair of skates and/or running shoe labels for MM / CM / MP / MONDO numbers. These numbers are indicating the maximum foot length that will fit into the pair, while MM shows the measurement in millimeters and CM/MP/MONDO is centimeters. Having these numbers along with the EU sizes from these shoes, you will be able to determine the size of the skates that you need by looking into the brand or model-specific sizing chart (usually located in the Sizing tab under the skates photos or as one of the product photos). If cannot be located, please send us an inquiry and we gladly will help you out!

Important: Many shops are recommending measuring your feet to determine your skate size, but we have found that this leads to too many mistakes and do not recommend that. If after following the instructions above you are finding yourself stuck in between two sizes, you could measure your feet according to the directions below. In this case, your shoe size is still the defining factor, so if the measurement is showing more than one size up or down, something is wrong with the measurement! If your foot is wider than average, please go one size up. Usually, Seba, FR, and Adapt skates fit wider than average, Powerslide and K2 average, Flying Eagle and Rollerblade average to narrow...

Still, want to measure your feet? Here is how to do it:

You’ll need paper, a pen, a flat wall, and, if possible, a buddy to help. It’s best to measure your feet later in the day after you have been on them for a few hours to account for swelling.
Find a hard floor with a flat wall. Tape a piece of paper down so that it touches the wall. Stand on the paper in bare feet, with your heel just touching the wall.
Have your friend take a book and place it so that it just touches the tip of your longest toe. Mark the spot where the book meets your toe. Do this with both feet and use the larger of the two measurements. Measure your foot length in millimeters, if possible. If you measure in inches, be sure to measure in 16ths of an inch.
Choose your size from the manufacturer's sizing chart. The “Max Foot Length” is the longest foot measurement that will fit into that size. The US Men’s column lists the sizes found on the box.

SIZING FOR CONTROL OVER COMFORT

Our sizing advice is targeted at freestyle or dance skater who wants a very snug fit in their skate to enjoy maximum control. Our instructions will give a fit that prioritizes control over comfort. If comfort is a higher priority, or if you have an especially wide or oddly shaped foot, you may do well to choose a slightly larger size. If you are near the boundary between two sizes, you would probably be better off going with the larger size in case you prefer comfort over control.

Notes about Width
In general, the Plastic Boot skates with a built-in liner have a narrower fit through the foot, while the boots with a removable liner and soft boots have a somewhat wider fit. The Carbon is a bit wider through the toe box than the plastic boot skates because the carbon fiber boot has less flex. As a rule of thumb, skates with built-in liners and "regular" liners will have less adjustment room.

We gladly will guide you in case you have any further questions. Email us at [email protected]

To help you better, please include all the sizing information off one or two pairs of skates or running shoes that you currently have including EU/US/UK/MP/CM/MM/MONDO, etc...

    So comfortable, I broke my wrist

    This is the kind of backpack you could take when you go camping for the weekend (not saying you should). It’s HUGE.

    It’s also VERY comfortable. The shape of the straps and the location of the padding are extremely well designed.

    The bag is so comfortable that I underestimated the weight I was carrying one day and fell backwards, breaking my wrist.

    It’s too large for everyday, general-purpose use, but if you’re travelling long distance by plane or train, it’s got more than enough space to fit whatever you’d need on your trip, AND your skates.

    Amazing Versatile Bag

    First off, I want to just say that I disagree with the other review that says this bag is HUGE. It is definitely big enough for your skates and a normal backpack sized amount of goods that you may want to take with you.

    The photo on this website shows the skates sticking out quite a bit, but I’ve found that you can overlap the wheels in the center of the storage area on the back and cinch them nice and tight to avoid walking around with skate wings that knock into things and people if you’re not careful.

    The quality of the fabric is great. It’s waterproof, but it comes with a great rain cover on the bottom that is large enough to cover your skates so they don’t get wet (rust sucks).

    There are many big to little pockets inside which I thoroughly enjoyed seeing. I hope Proskaters Place puts a few more pics of the inside of the bag on here!

    Holy crap, it’s really comfortable and ergonomic, too. I really like the feel of it on my back skating or on foot. The padding on the shoulder straps and on the back of the bag are really thick and comfortable without being cumbersome.

    Lastly, the price is really great for a specialized bag of such quality, in my opinion. It’s cheaper than anywhere else I’ve seen online and SEBA already put a good price on it to begin with.

    I couldn’t recommend this bag more and I do think it is versatile (light, but strong and spacious) enough to be an everyday bag.

    best $109 I spent last month

    I’ve used Deuter backpacks for years, so have a certain expectation of comfort and attention to detail. This bag easily matches the quality of the bags I’m used to, and does a great job of carrying skates. I often (inline) skate to (figure or hockey) skating practice, and this bag carries any one of those types of skates comfortably and securely. Additionally, it has three zippered pouches (of increasing size), so you can really fit in a variety of gear. The only disappointment is there is no bounce-free way to carry a helmet, but that’s a minor complaint about an otherwise great bag.

    Great way to carry your skates!

    It’s the perfect bag to carry your skates, a good size for your essential gear. You could actually position your skates with the wheels inside the bag or at the outer edges. Good quality and very comfortable.

    Definitely not small

    This bag is super high quality and seems durable. Hopefully it’s a pack that lasts 10 years at the price it’s at. They should call it medium bag because it’s definitely not small. It holds my laptop and textbooks while holding on to my skates. The one turn off is that if want to get to the main zippered pocket, it is quite a hassle of your skates are already strapped in.

    As a final note, the grey colored Seba Small looks awesome.

  6. Christopher

    Perfect!

    Im a full size guy, 6′ over 200lbs and this bag fits great. I could not really imagine needing anything larger than this. There is plenty of room for everything. I can even fit a camelbak tub thru the headphones access hole. Perfect!
