Are ice skates and hockey skates the same thing

Hockey skates are a subcategory of ice skates. They are firmer/stiffer/more stable around the ankles and do not have a toe-pick like figure skates and the blade is not as long as speed skates. These are good for a growing child who wants to just have fun and skate.

Yes, it's based on color. The black skates are men's sizes and the white skates are women's sizes. I ordered the men's black size 9 for my son and they fit perfectly. However, when he wears thicker socks with them (becasue its cold out there) they are a little tight. So if you're going to be wearing thick socks, I'd go one size up. Hope this helps.

If i remember correctly it does.I can't imagine we would have bought it without the skates and this was our only Amazon purchase last year at Christmas.

The skates where true to the picture. Black skates with blue wheels and red trim. Mostly black. Very nice. Try a different search. You may be able to get a better picture.

Yes. probably the best age for it. My 7 and 2 year old use it all the time. Ends in tears a lot but its hockey :)

No. They are ICEtrekkers brand and are much more durable than the Yaktrax my wife and I have used previously.

Most all skates are a half size larger than shoes, infact at rinks most times you cannont get half sizes. For growing kids though as a rule of thumb I always get a half size larger, you can stuff the front of the shoe for a bit if you need to and get to use them a little longer. I would go ahead and get a size 2.

No --this is a matching game. It has names of teams or hockey symbols, or Team Logos and it is a fast paced racing matching game. We have so much fun with this game. Even people who know nothing about hockey can play. fun fun fun!!!!!

I should have asked that question myself. They are the 2.5 inch pucks. They do last quite a bit, so the smaller size may be a good think if interested in variety.

Yes. They are an excellent quality skate with great performance and stability.

No, probably not. These skates are in womens' sizes. You will probably need to look for skates in "girls'" sizes.

Yes, absolutely, that's how my son and I used them. Of course you have to try to find relatively nice streets but that applies to any pair of skates I guess

These skates are exactly what they say they are, roller derby skates, made for skating fast on a smooth surface, i supposed you could wear them on a sidewalk but i would wear kneepads!

I'm not sure, but my son just turned 5 yesterday. He has tried the skates on twice so far and he still hasn't got the hang of it. He is a bit frustrated trying to figure it out.

Oh yes sir I have a 10 6 and 3 yr old we all play street hockey. We only use the goals the sticks are too small and the balls are not good if you get the set. The goals are great and if you hit them they move so the kids are safe. Get your own sticks and street hockey pucks though

Yes, all skates come with only a single brake, including the Roller Derby Tracers.
