The right Model?

A skater’s feet are the most important tool and  key to success and the boot must provide a link between the skater and the ice. Therefor WIFA makes even the beginners Prima boot in 5 widths and from Deluxe Skatec on, 7 widths.

When choosing the model, consider  the  skating level, age, weight and  time spent on the ice.  Our recom-mendation: the more advanced the skater, the closer the fit !

An experienced  WIFA dealer can advise about  the right model, size, width, and  special features.

The WIFA Skate Structure shows the full range and how to progress up. The skate structure  shows the strength  of each model and helps the skater   make the right choice. The Length and Width Table helps you  choose the right size and width.

How to measure my feet?
