Artiste with Mark IV Blade - Womens/Girls/Mens/Boys | Comfortable Figure Skates for Ice Skating & Figure Skating, Ice Skates for Women & Men/Kids Ice Skates

Great.. Exactly what we needed for my daughter’s ice skating lessons. These are a little sturdier/stiffer skates so may feel a bit uncomfortable for beginners/small kids. But the sturdier material is necessary for advanced skaters. I do recommend buying waxed laces separately.

Skates fit my daughter like a glove. Great quality.

I love it

One of the blade mount isn’t centered or mounted the same as the other. Other than that I love them. I don’t like long lace’s so I’m getting new ones.

This is a great pair of beginner figure skate, I ordered through Amazon for faster shipping and it came faster than I would've gotten from Jackson website. The size was perfect for me and I'm so glad I didn't have to return for the size. I wear size 8 shoes and I have relatively wide feet. 8C was perfect for me. It was very tight in the beginning but I got used to it after 3-4 wears. I recommend wearing men's dress socks. The figure skating thighs didn't provide much support and were too thin. Regular socks were too thick. Thinner socks work perfect for me. I weigh quite a lot but still skate in these with no problem. I will probably have to upgrade at some point but these are great skates for beginners especially they aren't too stiff that I can really work on my knee bend and edge control.

Arrived on time. Pretty skate ut apparently the "C" width isn't going to work for me and the 8.5, which is my size felt like a 7.5. Will have to return and get a 9.5 with a "D" width. Otherwise, Jackson never disappoints in quality of the boot and blade. Worth the $300.... :-)

As a new figure skate Mom, I bought these shoes thinking they would help my daughter learn to skate. Unfortunately, I didn't understand that figure stakes have to have the blades installed correctly for them to work, and they are technically made to be adjustable. In this case, my daughter's skates were misaligned, but since we were new to skating we didn't know. They didn't even mention it... Now a year later, my daughter is having ankle problems and keeps getting told she's skating on her "outside edge" and is no longer getting better. Well, tonight I looked at her skates and figured out why... the blades aren't centered... at all. I added a photo of how the blade should look when you get them to ensure they are mounted correctly. Ours were not. If you look at the photo, you can see that they mounted them too far "in" which then caused my daughter to try to balance on the "outer edge" since this was closer to her center of gravity. This hurt her ankle, and made staking very difficult. Very disappointed. These skates basically cost her WAY more than even the most expensive skates possible since she basically lost a year of skating experience and... even worse... they are actually dangerous as they can cause injuries. CHECK YOUR MOUNTING... or better yet, get skates somewhere else.

These are very good beginning figure skates. I have spent about twenty hours in them so far, both for skating recreationally on my own and during lessons. It took probably 8 hours or so to break them in. Before that, they were pretty stiff, but you can keep fresh skates tied a bit loosely to help keep them comfortable while you work out that stiffness. I recommend also not tying them all the way up - leave the laces off the last hooks until they are broken in. After the break-in period they have been very comfortable and supportive. I would expect to be able to do just about anything that doesn't involve jumping with these. If you're starting lessons, or have already committed to lessons and need to upgrade to "real" skates, these are a great way to go.

comfortable, after the first few times you use it, as I am told should be the case for most skates. Safe for beginners, which is my case. I really like the slightly wider version (I got the intermediate one, not the W). It leaves room for my toes to "breathe", without compromising the tightness around the ankle. I wear the same size as my regular shoes, except for the slightly wider element. I wish they offered a female size in a different color (I was afraid to risk picking an equivalent male size in black).

Very sturdy skates. Beautifully made and true to size. Very comfortable and managed to use 3times before they needed sharpening.

De acuerdo a los esperado

Excellent support. Good for jumps (Waltz, loop, toe loop, salchow, flip) and spins. I am a size 37 and got size 5.5 which is exactly the right snug. When these are worn out, I’ll buy them again

They look really nice very stiff and padded. I can’t wait to skate in them, i’m sure they are wonderful. As for the size I wear 36 EU and I got 5.5 C it fits perfectly!! I love it Also shipping was so fast they literally arrived in 5 days!!
