The K2 Skates are the best that I ever had. They can be very well put (also thanks to two straps, front and rear pull-up), tightly lace // and sit like a glove, even though I had a half size larger than otherwise ordered me. So far, I have not let them reground because they also in the pre-sanding have me totally rich and good runnability. Workmanship and materials make me a very reliable and durable impression, yet they are nevertheless relatively light and sporty designed. Running shoes give me a good grip and accordingly I recommend it to beginners who will feel safe in your shoes. I am convinced by these skates in all respects and especially in direct comparison with my no-name skates. The difference is much greater than thought. So if you want more skating time is with these shoes have a lot of fun.
