SFR Roller Skates

Boots are typically synthetic leather or vinyl, which offer durability and easy cleaning. Some higher-end models feature padded suede for extra comfort and style. Foam liners provide cushioning around the ankles and Achilles area.

SFR skates use urethane wheels around 58–60 mm in diameter with a hardness between 82A–86A. This combination offers a smooth roll on various surfaces while gripping well enough for controlled turns. Softer wheels absorb rough outdoor surfaces; you can swap to harder wheels for indoor skating.

Many kids’ models do. Adjustable skates feature a mechanism that lets you extend or contract the boot length. Adult models generally come in fixed sizes but may run wide to accommodate different foot shapes.

Entry-level SFR skates are primarily recreational. For serious artistic or dance skating, choose skates with more rigid boots and plates designed for advanced manoeuvres. SFR models are perfect for jam sessions, disco skating and casual use.

Yes. Wheels, bearings, toe stops and even plates can be upgraded. Ensure replacement parts match the thread size (typically 5/8″ for toe stops) and wheel width (usually 32–44 mm).

Absolutely. Kids appreciate the fun designs, and parents appreciate the stability and adjustable sizing. Removable liners in some models make cleaning easier, and padded collars help prevent blisters.

Wipe boots after use, dry them thoroughly and store them in a cool, dry place. Rotate wheels to ensure even wear, lubricate bearings and tighten hardware periodically. Replace worn laces and toe stops for optimal performance.

SFR skates are budget-friendly compared to high-end brands. Prices vary by materials and features but remain accessible for families and casual skaters.
