If youre looking to get started in roller derby, there is no better option in the entry level class than theRiedell R3 Derbyroller skate. A favourite with skaters since it debuted, the R3 boot features class-leading build quality including a special grade of vinyl that is more durable than standard vinyl and a detailed boot construction process that was developed from our decades of boot-making experience. Derby is a demanding sport though, so to ready the R3 for derby use, we added black tough scuff leather toe caps to prevent abrasion, reinforcedPowerDyne Thrustnylon plates for a firm base, andSonar Aurawheels that have predictable grip, smooth roll, and excellent durability with little break in time.
