K2F.I.T Ice Pro Mens Ice Skates - Black/Blue / 12.5

TL;DRThey're great! They fit and skate very well. Worth the purchase.I learned to skate inline first, so ice skating isn't difficult to me, if not a bit awkward at first; finding ice skates that worked for me however, was rather daunting. Especially with a flat size 13 foot.I picked these up as the reviews were very positive. I must say, they were spot on. Super comfortable and warm liner! Within minutes, I was skating as though I was on concrete again. One criticm is that lacing system is a little wonky. It's a speed lace system so creating some extra room was odd at first, but it is secure, so I can't be too mad. If you have a fatter foot too, perhaps the BOA system skates might be a better option. 🤔At the end of the day, for $100, you really can't go wrong with this pair. I'm gonna be able to get a lot of practice in this winter season!

This was my first pair of ice skates. They are true to size. I wear a size 13 shoe so I ordered the size 13 skate. They fit great and I love the straps to make a tight fit. I highly recommend.

After renting skates for a while I finally decided to get my own pair. These are so much easier to use than the other skates that I have tried. The tightening strap gets them really tight with little effort. They are also so comfy and warm on the feet!

Rentals are horrible to learn with and lead to frustration. You need your own skates that fit and just as important is to be able to sharpen the blades to a grind that is suitable to your body weight, skating needs (hockey or figure, hard or softer ice). These skates are super comfortable, easy to get on and off and provide enough support for a beginning skaters with casual needs. I used them to get through my Learn to Skate course at my local rink, since the rentals included on Day 1 were so soft they had no support I constantly fell and blades were dull and uneven, I could barely do anything I fell and hated Day 1 almost quitting the sport. On Day 2 I showed up with these (after my pro shop sharpened them properly to 1/2” radius) and had a much better experience and stuck with the course , picking up a new hobby. With any skates and gear, you need to care for them. K2 still seems to make good gear, I used to be a downhill skier when I lived in New England. Sadly, as your skills progress and you need more support or different blade types, you ‘graduate’ up to buying more upgraded gear for your needs (such as hockey skates or figure skates). Luckily I plan one using these skates as a way to get my son into skating, since he has same fit.

Bought two pairs of these in different sizes. They fit great and my kids could wear thick socks with them. I debated about sizing up, but didn’t need to. Blades were already sharp and skates were ready to go. As far as having a functional pair of skates for leisure skating, these were perfect and the value was good.

K2 has figured out how to make a comfortable, well made, affordable skate for the rest of us. While Bauer seems to own the NHL, K2 is a major player in the inline skate field. Who better to bring their comfort boot to the ice skating arena. I won't be doing a triple flip with these but they are very comfortable and I highly recommend then. Good quality, super comfortable, affordable. I love these.

I just ordered this pair to replace a different brand that I purchased where the size I chose was too big since i sized up. In terms for sizing my shoe size is typically 12.5(perfect) to 13 in Nike US running shoes. I measured my foot to be 11.5 toe to heal. So I went with a half size shorter than my 12.5 shoe size and chose a 12. So going .5 to one size smaller from the published shoe size is probably best. I would have gone one full size smaller, but I wanted the flexibility of thicker socks, and possibly using an orthotic. So far they feel great and I will update this post as I'm finding how important it is to have skates sized right.

I've used K2 inlines for years because I like the fit and the boa closure. [These skates don't have the boa closure.] I had a pair of these ice skates for years, but since I rarely ice skate, my wife tossed them in one of her garage cleaning fits because she loves to piss me off. After taking my granddaughter to an ice rink and renting skates a couple of times, I decided to buy another pair and start ice skating more regularly. I must drive 30 miles to a rink, but I'm retiring and need more things to do especially in the winter when I don't skate outdoors so much. If you want hockey skates, I can recommend K2. I've never owned other ice skates, so I don't really know the difference.
