Risport Figure Skating Boots Care & Maintenance Guide
To maximize the lifespan of your Risport figure skating boots, proper care and maintenance are essential. Most Risport boots are crafted from high-quality leather or microfibre with water-repellent treatments, helping protect them during regular use. However, routine cleaning and drying will keep your figure skating boots performing at their best.
🧼 Daily Care for Figure Skates
After every skating session:
- Dry your figure skating boots thoroughly inside and out using a soft cloth or chamois
- Wipe down your blades
- Remove excess moisture to prevent damage and maintain boot structure
🌬️ Proper Drying Technique
- Loosen the laces completely
- Pull the tongue forward to open the boot fully
- Allow boots to air dry at room temperature in a well-ventilated area
⚠️ Avoid placing your boots near direct heat sources such as fireplaces, heaters, or radiators. Excess heat can damage the leather, adhesives, and internal support structure of your figure skating boots.
🧽 Cleaning Your Figure Skates
- Clean your boots using water and a mild, neutral soap
- Gently wipe with a soft cloth
❌ Avoid abrasive or harsh cleaning products, as they can damage the finish and materials of your boots
📦 Storage Tips
- Store your figure skates in a cool, dry place
- Keep them away from direct sunlight to prevent material breakdown and discolouration
