The Love Skate Guarantee: Professional Figure Skate Fittings You Can Trust

Too many skaters have been let down by rushed fittings or boots that never felt quite right. Ill-fitting figure skates don’t just make skating uncomfortable — they can hold you back, cause pain, and even risk injury.

That’s why at The Boot and Blade we do things differently. Our fittings are appointment-based and skater-first. We take the time to understand your skating goals, your foot anatomy, and your preferences before making any recommendation. Because when it comes to figure skates, the perfect fit isn’t optional — it’s everything.


What the Love Skate Guarantee Means

Simply put: if you don’t love your skates, we’ll make it right.

That could mean boot adjustments, custom modifications, or in some cases, even replacing your boots. We’ll keep working with you until your skates feel like they were made for you — giving you confidence and joy every time you step on the ice.

It’s not a returns policy. It’s a promise that every pair leaving our shop is backed by our commitment to your success on the ice.


Why the Perfect Fit Matters for Skaters

Figure skating asks a lot of your body. Your boots are the foundation — every jump, spin, and edge depends on them. A poor fit doesn’t just make progress harder; it can shorten your time in the sport.

We see it all the time: skaters who’ve struggled with pain or fatigue because of boots that never truly suited them. On the other side, the right professional boot fitting unlocks comfort, longevity, and confidence — whether you’re chasing doubles, coaching all day, or simply skating for the love of it.


How Our Appointment-Based Fittings Work

  • Unhurried appointments — designed to get to know you as a skater.

  • Anatomy & goals considered — matching boots to your unique foot shape, skating style, and ambitions.

  • Blade mounting & sharpening included — every pair leaves our shop set up for success.

  • Ongoing support — if something doesn’t feel right, we’ll adjust until it does.

This is how we’ve built our reputation as one of the UK’s most trusted figure skate specialists. It’s also why skaters travel from across the country (and beyond) to see us.

In the End

Because your skating matters — and we won’t stop until you love skating in your skates.
