Choose this, not that: wide feet edition
If you're a skater with wide feet, you'll want to ensure your roller skate boots give your feet plenty of room so they aren't scrunched in your boots.

The truth is, there is no brand that carries all wide or all narrow roller skate boots. We created this guide to help skaters with wide feet choose an alternative to some of our most popular models. If you are looking for roller skates for wide and large feet, look no further!
