Mens skates offer boots with wider widths, higher tendon cuffs and larger sizes. Also mens skates can sometimes be an excellent option for women who find the ladies skates too small. Some of the features you will find in these skates include mens anatomically contoured cuffs, speed laces, harder wheels and antivibration technology. Depending upon the quality of skate you choose, the bearings will range from ABEC 5 to 7. Frames will be constructed from fibreglass, carbon reinforced nylon or alloys such as aluminum, titanium or magnesium. Some models will also have energy return systems and custom fit liners in a wide range of sizes.
