Riedell Hammer
Description:
Online and special order only.
Riedell HAMMER (125 or rs-1000) complete skate package includes:
Available in black or white (customizable)
Sizes 4-13 full and half
Medium width
This sweat wicking Cambrelle lined and pliable leather boot is one of our top picks for this price range. It features lace to toe design, a velcro cinch strap to keep your heel in place and a stacked heel. It hugs the foot nicely since there's no padding yet still manages to have fairly easy break in. The fact that there is no counter in the right outside quarter to help offer support and hold the boot's shape long term can be good and bad; those with painful bunionettes may prefer the lack of hard fiber supports in this area with the trade off that the boot will undoubtedly stretch a bit in time and may not fit as snugly long term. The 125 generally fits a slim profile foot very well with the exception of the heel area, which tends to be a little roomy for most narrow to medium foot types.
