The M12 Ice by Roces is crafted using the identical boot as the immensely popular M12 aggressive skates. Its outer shell comprises superior-quality Polyurethane, which endows it with exceptional durability and stiffness. The liner is constructed from anatomically shaped memory foam that gradually conforms to your feet for an impeccable fit. The blade features a professional hockey design crafted from stainless steel, making it an excellent ally for mastering the ice. Note: This skate feels snug. When trying on the skate, ensure you push your foot back fully. The snug V-cut at the skate's heel gives the impression of a smaller size. Bending your knees while standing in the skate assists in allowing the heel to slip into the V-cut at the back. Once you begin skating, you'll find the skate fits true to size when properly fastened. For recreational and leisure ice skating with thick socks, it is highly recommended to order a size larger.
