Quality Leather Boots
made in Europe
We move with the times remaining true to our principles of quality: no compromises in
our materials, strongest leathers sourced in Europe for all our models.
The cattle leathers undergo regular inspection in offi cial testing laboratories and are
conform to the latest EU environmental standards. Quality is continuously improved, models
tested and optimized.
leather for sustainability
WIFA boots are very durable. You barely will find any skating boots with 2.5 mm of
leather thickness. Leather does not break, is breathable, flexible and molds itself
to the feet. Prima/Set remains the top model fi gure skaters start in.
Trainers all over the world and particularly in Russia promote Prima for its orthopedic fi t
and the right balance between the required stiffness and fl exibility. In a boot that is too
hard, muscles cannot properly develop.
the long life of a WIFA boot
A WIFA children boot is not a skating boot for just one season. It is a boot for uncountable
years, even decennies. A Prima/Set for example is kept by its fi rst family until all children
grew out. Then it is sold via internet, to a skate mate, to a skating rink or a club as rental
boots. In the latter case, hundreds of children skate in one pair during lots of years be-
fore they are resold again. Only thick leathers provide this durability and sustainability.
Some skaters came to our outlet with 40-year old skates from their parents asking for new
ones for their children.
Enjoy your skates for a very long time !
