Founded in 1975, Bont Skates is a Sydney-based company that has become one of the most recognisable among skating enthusiasts. It is known to have pioneered many of the technology and advancements adopted by other skater manufacturers globally. It was the initial footwear company to use materials like fibreglass, Kevlar and carbon fibre. It was also the first to use thermoplastics and heat mouldable resins to help its skates fit better.
Bont Skates also invented heat mouldable skates and was the first company to make ice skates with adjustable frames and blades. They also started the trend of using aluminium strengtheners, Velcro, and lace covers on skate boots.
Whether you are looking for inline skates, roller skates, or ice skates, Bladeworx is the place to get the highest quality Bont Skates. We have them in different styles, colours, patterns and sizes, they are suitable for skaters with varying skate styles and skill levels.
We have arranged them in the different skate style categories and other sub-categories for kids, men, women, outdoor and indoors. The following are the benefits you will enjoy from using Bont Skates compared to other brands.
Perfect fit
Bont Skates have developed super stiff but mouldable resin, even at low temperatures, to make it usable in ice speed skates. The resin softens at 60 degrees C, the lowest in the industry. Their thermoplastic is also highly mouldable, meaning the skates have a perfect fit even during the first fit.
They also use proprietary anti-stretch material that ensures the skates don’t stretch mid-skate, maintaining the perfect fit.
Lightweight
The footbeds used by Bont Skates are heat mouldable, making them considerably lighter than others in the industry. This ensures that you skate without experiencing much resistance.
They also use carbon fibre, one of the lightest materials, from the top carbon manufacturer globally.
They also use closed-cell memory foam inside the boot, which, unlike the commonly used open-cell memory foam, does not absorb sweat or water as you skate, even on ice. This ensures the skates remain lightweight, dry and comfortable.
Toe protection
These skates have rubber bumpers at the front of their skates to keep your toes safe and you can replace them in case of wear and tear.
