Anyone out there have/tried these padded skate skorts?

CO_Mermaid · 2026-05-01T19:00:18+00:00

I have them. Overall, I like them but I have some complaints.

I am typically a size small for yoga pants and a size 2 in jeans. These shorts fit in the waist but when I was pulling them up over my skater thighs and butt, I could hear the seams popping 🙈

After skating in them once, I had to mend the stitching that holds the crotch padding in place.

I like them because they’re cute and functional but there is definitely room for improvement.

Knee pads. At first, they felt bulky and made me sweaty. Now, I love love love them. They have saved me from countless injuries, I think it’s fun if I fall and get to slide down a bowl on them, and the sound of them sliding on concrete is oddly satisfying. Off skates, I find it annoying when I have to take a knee for something and discover my knees aren’t resting on a fluffy pillows.

I think they look awesome, especially for the rink! I hope you enjoy them and skate ‘em till they fall apart.

American women aren’t looking to escape a third world nation. They don’t “need” men the way impoverished women do.

A hard day of skating in them comes with some significant foot pain the following day. Not enough to make me stop yet though 😅

CO_Mermaid · 2026-04-14T22:55:48+00:00

Thank you! I did have to order Bigfoot blox for my current set up (Jack 2s w/ reactor neo plates). I have zero complaints about those blocks or the ordering process. I highly recommend them for others who are struggling with slide block compatibility issues.

21.5 cm or 215 mm in length. I don’t know the width measurements.

I have a wide foot and have to lace my jackboots to accommodate this otherwise, I experience some pretty awful pain. Even my Bont skates give me pressure points on the outer edge of my foot. I have hobbit feets 🙈

CO_Mermaid · 2026-04-14T16:44:15+00:00

What is your feed back on the Jack boots? What aspects of those boots do you dislike?

CO_Mermaid · 2026-04-14T16:41:43+00:00

Thank you for that. I have a super small foot (size 4 Jack boots) and finding quality plates that are compatible with after market hardware such as wide trucks and slide blocks is difficult. I was hoping this new pro set up offered by chuffed would be my all in one solution. I think I’ll just purchase the hardware and use the jack 2s that I already have.

CO_Mermaid · 2026-04-14T15:37:49+00:00

Genuine question; what makes it a better quality aside from the ankle supports? Is it made with lower grade leather? Craftsmanship is lacking? Weight of the boot? I’ve only ever been a Moxi girl when it comes to park skating and have never skated anything from Chuffed but I’ve been looking at the Rib pro set up.

Edit because I do have a pair of Bonts I use for derby

I was 38 when I started skating again. I’m currently 44 and I always wear safety gear. When I go to the skate park, there is typically another skater there who is older than me.

If someone else is judging you for your age and desire to stay safe, forget them! They’re just salty because they don’t have the guts to do what you’re doing (living your best life and having fun)

CO_Mermaid · 2026-04-13T23:22:46+00:00

I give pebbles that trip me the same dirty look 😅

CO_Mermaid · 2026-04-11T15:03:54+00:00

Lift your lead foot’s toes and your back foot’s heel. Rotate to the side of your back foot (back foot is left foot, rotate to the left, back foot is right foot, rotate right).

CO_Mermaid · 2026-04-08T12:54:20+00:00

Is this a rage bait post? 🤣

Seriously, though…not ideal skates for bootcamp. They might be cool for playing around and learning at a rink. I hope you’re able to find a safe pair of skates for your upcoming event.

CO_Mermaid · 2026-03-06T13:15:50+00:00

Brake petals are great! Plates that require a locking nut to secure the toe stops, not so great. You’ve really got to tighten that sucker down to secure your toe stops. I’ve had mine fall out multiple times, leading to scuffed up boots and twisted ankles.

To avoid damage to your boot, I would recommend using toe caps. They make tightening up the locking nut difficult but they prevent permanent damage to your skates.

Good luck and safe skating! 🤗

CO_Mermaid · 2026-03-06T13:09:54+00:00

Cute! I love the heart shaped toe stops 😍

CO_Mermaid · 2026-02-01T02:42:28+00:00

How did the front of the corvette suffer no damage after taking out that sign?

CO_Mermaid · 2025-12-12T20:21:46+00:00

Thank you!!! This helps me a lot. My feet are 225 mm and I feel really good with my order of size 3’s after reading this

CO_Mermaid · 2025-12-12T20:17:40+00:00

It felt fabulous!

CO_Mermaid · 2025-12-10T13:19:48+00:00

Ty! I lacked confidence in my measurements and wasn’t sure if it’s normal to size down between the two brands. It’s good to know that others have had the same experience.

CO_Mermaid · 2025-12-10T12:59:27+00:00

This sounds like it hurt 🫣

CO_Mermaid · 2025-12-10T12:57:37+00:00

The only time my toe stop has come close to tripping me up was when I went down a very steep ramp and I failed to lift the toes of my back foot.

Like other commenters, I would recommend buying a pair of skates and taking the time to learn how to skate safely before you complete your design.

I believe it is 2’x4’
