The Riedell Torch roller skate is the choice of speed skaters and derby skaters and a good all-around skate. The Model 495 boot is comfortable and agile, with full-grain leather uppers and full-grain Chinook leather interior, and a hand-rolled ankle collar to help prevent pressure points around the Achilles. (Plus a plush shearling tongue!) The Ankle Closure secures and cinches your heel in place with lace loops rather than a Velcro strap. The Torch will exceed your expectations and take your game to the next level, and boasts a durable and lightweight PowerDyne Reactor Neo plate!
