Made from Strongest materials from Europe. WIFA boots have been handmade in Europe since 1960. WIFA uses only the strongest cowhides from Europe for all models, tanned according to the strict environmental regulations of the EU. All WIFA skates are padded and made of firm and thick leather (2.2-2.4 mm). A thin layer of thermoplastic reinforcement allows each WIFA ice skating boot to be heat-molded.

Long life as a tribute to sustainability. The WIFA ice skating boots are made of about 80% natural materials, ensuring an excellent foot climate. The thin reinforcement layers inside the boots are needed to provide stability but also to allow the heat molding process to work properly. The boots are literally reshaped on the foot. After cooling down, the boots fit like a second skin. This effect persists thanks to these layers.

Available in Various Sizes and Widths. Available for a lot of sizes. EU 36 (US 5.25) up to EU 47 (US 13.75). Foot width also include the following sizes: M, L, LL, C, CC. Please refer to the Sizing charts for more information.

Improtant Care Instructions

Like all quality products, WIFA boots deserve the best possible care and even children can be taught to look after their own boots. All feet sweat during training - some more than others, and even though the boots are made of breathable leather, they can get very damp inside.

After training the boots should be carefully dried inside and outside. They should not be left in a plastic bag longer than necessary. Skating bags should only be used for carrying boots from the rink to home. Skating boots should never be put on top of, or near to a radiator, but left in a well ventilated place. If the boots are very damp, they can be stuffed with newspaper to absorb the damp.

Do not use an abrasive cleaner instead gently wipe off any dirt with a soft damp sponge. Its important to check that the screws on the blades are still tight, as otherwise moisture can penetrate the leather and cause damage. The soles have been waxed but in time rubbed places should be waxed again to prevent damp seeping in. Do not use varnish - this could trap the damp inside and cause mildew. Moisture can penetrate and cause damage.

Breaking In The Boots

Allow your new boots time to break in and conform to your feet.

Do not attempt to do all the jumps, spins and deep knee bends until your boots are ready. Undue pressure on the leather can cause your boots to break down prematurely.

Unfortunately, there are times especially if there has been a boot change before a Championship when there is no time to break the boot in carefully. Forward planning therefore is recommended.
