Are roller skates the same size as your regular shoe?

I am looking for beginner roller skates for a 6yr old boy size 1.5 shoe?

  • He can't roller skate yet and needs the 1-2-3 kind where you can walk in them first... but the 1-2-3 speed roller skates for beginners only go up to a shoe size 12 or 1. Any ...show more

  • Answer:

    If you go to your local roller rink, a lot of times they carry these skates all the way up to size 5.5. They may know where to buy them, or you could get apair from them. That would be my suggestion. Our local rink carried them and my daughter wears a size 3, so I know they do go up higher. Good luck

Consider a couple of skating lessons before the party... if you have time. Most children can become independent on skates in about 30 minutes with a good instructor. Parents are usually determined to hold the child and eliminate falls. But a good instructor will help your child understand what makes the skates go, what makes a bad fall and more importantly what makes a good fall. And good falls are an important part of learning to skate, since even champions fall once in a while. This skating adventure is just like learning to walk again. There will be stumbles and falls. If your child's arms are getting sore and your back hurts... try a skating class or even just a couple of private lessons to get him going safely and keep you pain-free, too. Final tip. The 1-2-3 skates appear safe because they do not roll much, but usually the wheels are very hard plastic that will slip and slide on a rink surface. A safer solution is to use good rink quads or inline skates with soft wheels. Ask if the rental attendant can tighten the wheels a bit to slow them down for your son.
