Overview
A stabilizing split tongue and reinforced lace hooks work with a soft padded lining to hold a child's foot in the Riedell Sparkle Junior. The uppers are vegan, the soles are PVC and the blades are stainless steel.
Everything on it is meant to need little upkeep: the sole needs no maintenance and the blades are stainless steel. The limitation is level, since light ankle support suits beginners and may feel soft to a child who is progressing.
Who it's for
Parents outfitting a young beginner for rink days will find the soft lining and stabilizing tongue easy to live with. Older children and teens need an adult size, and advanced skaters need more rigid support.
Pros and cons
- Padded soft lining
- Stabilizing split tongue
- Reinforced lace hooks
- No-maintenance PVC soles
- Light ankle support only
- Junior sizes only
- Foot length for the size not listed
- Not for advanced skating
Performance notes
The blade edge does the gripping, and stainless steel resists rust. Padding and a split tongue spread pressure over the top of the foot, which matters for a child on long sessions. Reinforced lace hooks let the laces take firm tension without pulling out.
