What are Factory Seconds? Besides being a great way to save a lot of money on a pair of skates, "Factory Seconds" are items that have minor manufacturing flaws or cosmetic imperfections, causing them to fail a factory quality inspection. They are NEW and 100% functional, but don't meet the manufacturer's standard for a "perfect" item, allowing significant savings for YOU! Roller Skate Nation is one of few authorized sellers of Riedell Factory Seconds.
The Riedell 265 boot is handmade in the U.S.A! Featuring the classic two stripe design with some modern twists. With hand-sorted full grain leather uppers and Dri-Lex/Cambrelle lining, the quality can be seen and felt throughout the entire boot. The rolled collar and lace-to-toe design of these Riedell roller derby skates will ensure you have the most comfortable fit possible, plus they are heat moldable!
Sure-Grip brings you the next generation in plate design, the Avanti aluminum plate. This 10 degree double action plate is built to last. A sleek hollow design gives skaters performance and durability without sacrificing lightness.
Sure-Grip Fugitive Wheels make you even more unstoppable with Speed Master ABEC 7 bearings. The 64x44mm, 92A wheels are made with soft poly BD urethane, flexible spoked core, soft lips and a nice wide shape to make this one of the grippiest indoor wheels available. The added Superlite nylon insert prevents too much flex when cornering.
This skate is complete with a black adjustable rubber toe stop.
Please note: this model 265 boot is made in Men's sizing (the size that will appear on your boot label). We list the Ladies equivalent so you easily know which size to purchase. These Riedell Model 265 skate boots are heat moldable to make sure they give you the best possible fit. This skate is a Beta (D) medium fit.
