Proper Fitting of Riedell Skate Boot.
To get the right size measure your foot. Do not assume that your size is the same as your regular street shoes. These skates are in men's sizes not women's.
Bad Girlfriend Skates recommends to try on the skates of other girls (or guys) on your league that wear to determine which size fits you best. - See bottom for more measurements and sizing info.
WHEELS
Make sure you ask your league for advice on what wheels you need for the surface you will be skating on - save yourself some cash.

Zippy and Comfortable
Aside from my toe stop falling off on my second skate, I find these skates comfortable and they fit well around my ankles. They are quite "zippy", so for a beginner skater, like me, can be a bit tricky.
