Try before you buy

Being able to try on your skates before you buy them can be essential. At our store in Amsterdam we will help you in your quest for the perfect setup. We can measure the length of your foot to get you the right size, change any part of the skates that you want and give you advice about anything.

All your favorite skates brands are available in our store. We have everything skaters dream of including caps, shirt, shoes, pants, backpacks and sweaters.
