Shipping Costs

The shipping costs for our rental equipment are calculated individually.

Please contact us before or after placing your order to confirm the shipping costs and discuss further details.

Below are three examples:

1x pair of roller skates/inline skates, including packaging, weighs between 3.5 and 4.5 kg.

• The shipping costs within Germany for a 10kg package are approximately €10. Return shipping via us costs €8 per package. Thus, the total cost for shipping and return of 2 pairs of roller skates would be around €18.
• The shipping costs within Germany for a 30kg package are approximately €22. Return shipping via us costs €8 per package. Thus, the total cost for shipping and return of 2 pairs of roller skates + 2 pairs of inline skates, including protective gear, would be around €30.
• The shipping costs for larger quantities, such as 50 pairs of roller skates for a roller disco, can vary significantly depending on the selected shoe sizes and the mix of roller skates for children and adults.

To make sure that you choose the right size for your new urban inline skates, we have put together some important information and tips below.

Take the time to read our size finder and find the right size straight away. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at any time.

The right shoe size

If you don't know the brand or model of an urban skate, there is only one reliable size, the Mondo size. We always give the Mondo size in mm (millimeters) or cm (centimeters).

You can find this information in our size chart and in the size selection. We have added the respective size charts to the corresponding product photos.

The specified Mondo size of the selected shoe size must not be smaller than your own foot length, plus a tolerance of 4 to 9mm.

Example:

1. Measure your foot length (barefoot). It is best to stand with your heels against a door frame or a straight wall without a skirting board.
2. Add another 5-9mm tolerance to your measured foot length (depending on how thick your socks are and how comfortable you want them to be).
3. The result must not be larger than the specified Mondo size of the selected shoe size.

If your foot measures 26.0cm, with a tolerance of 5mm this results in a length of 26.5cm.
If the shoe size EU 41 has a mondo size of 26.4cm, then you are 1mm over and should therefore choose size EU 42!

The right fit

In our product specifications, under the heading “Fit”, you will also find information about the width or cut of the respective skate.

Here we distinguish between the following five sizes:

• Very narrow,
• Narrow,
• Medium,
• Wide,
• Very wide.

You should only choose the 'very narrow' or 'narrow' fits if you are sure that you have a very narrow foot or if you know that you want the optimal control and ultimate grip in a skate (even if you sacrifice comfort).

For example, if you have a pronounced arch in your foot, which you can recognize by a strong, crescent-shaped footprint (when walking with wet feet), then you are probably in the middle range.

For example, if you tend to have flat feet and leave fewer crescent-shaped footprints, then you probably have wide feet.

Example:

• For example, if your foot is about 26cm long and 11cm wide, then your foot is one of the wider feet.
• Every shoe is different, which is why we would like to give you a rough guide.

The following is also very important in urban inline skating:

• The right size of your urban inline skates is crucial to ensure optimal control when performing tricks such as slides or airs.
• In your urban inline skates, you should have some space between the outer shell and your foot. This is important because your foot can slide forward when you perform tricks such as slides or airs, as well as the associated abrupt stops. If your foot does not have enough space or is not firmly in place, you will hit your toes on the outer shell, which can lead to severe pain.

Care Tips for Hardboot Inline Skates – Tough, But Not Maintenance-Free
Hardboot inline skates are known for their sturdy outer shell, high level of control, and long durability. They’re especially popular in aggressive skating, urban skating, or on longer routes. Despite their ruggedness, hardboots also require regular maintenance to keep their performance and lifespan intact. In this article, we’ll show you what to look out for.

Why Hardboots Need Care
Even though hardboot skates can take a beating, skating puts massive stress on both material and mechanics – from jumps, slides, rough pavement, or changing weather conditions. Neglected skates quickly lose performance and can even become unsafe in the worst case.

1. Cleaning After Every Session

A quick check after each ride prevents long-term damage:

• Clean the outer shell: Wipe the hard shell with a damp cloth or soft brush to remove dirt, sand, and dust.

Air out the liners: Remove the inner boots (if removable) after skating and let them dry thoroughly. This prevents odors and mold.

Avoid heat sources:

• Never dry skates on heaters or in direct sunlight – plastic and cushioning materials can warp.

2. Maintain Wheels and Bearings

Wheels and bearings are the most heavily used parts of your skates.

Rotate wheels:

• Swap the wheels around regularly to avoid uneven wear. This is especially important for aggressive or urban setups.

Clean bearings:

• If the wheels don’t spin freely, remove the bearings, clean them, and lubricate with suitable oil.

Replace bearings:

• If bearings are rusty, noisy, or damaged, replacing them is usually the only solution.

Check antirocker wheels:

• In aggressive setups, don’t forget the small center wheels.

3. Keep Closure Systems in Check

A secure fit is only possible with intact closures.

Inspect buckles and ratchets:

• Watch for cracks, worn teeth, or loose screws. Replacement parts are usually easy to find.

Velcro straps or powerstraps:

• Regularly check for lost grip or material fatigue.

4. Maintain Liners & Comfort

The inner boot plays a key role in comfort and support.

Air them out after each session:

• Sweat accumulates in the liner – regular airing is essential.

Prevent odors:

• Activated charcoal insoles, shoe deodorant, or special hygiene sprays help against unpleasant smells.

Hand washing:

• Some liners can be hand-washed – check the manufacturer’s instructions.

5. Check Screws and Frames

Loose screws can be dangerous – especially when doing tricks or stairs.

Tighten axles & cuff screws:

• Regularly check that all screws are securely fastened.

Inspect frame mounts:

• After crashes or extended use, it’s worth checking the chassis for damage or loosening.

Use Loctite:

• Threadlocker can help with screws that keep coming loose – but use sparingly.

6. Store Properly

Even storage can go wrong – or right.

Cool & dry:

• Store your skates in a cool, dry place with stable temperature.

Don’t store in your car:

• Summer heat or winter cold can permanently damage materials.

Conclusion:

A Little Care Goes a Long Way for Fun and Safety
Hardboot inline skates are real workhorses – but only if you treat them well. Regular maintenance not only extends their lifespan but also improves your skating experience. Take a few minutes for the basics after each session – your ride quality (and your wallet) will thank you.
