Oxelo Play 5 Kids' Skates - Red/Black

These inline skates are perfect for kids who want to start out, by gradually gaining speed. A bearing suitable for longer rides!

WHAT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD YOU TAKE?

We recommend all of them: helmet, elbow pads, knee pads and wrist guards. Because you never know which bit of your body you're going to land on.

HOW TO ADJUST THE SIZE

See the little tongue on the front of the boot? Simply move the rip-tab to the number you want. 1 for the smallest size, 2 for the middle size and 3 for the biggest. The space at the front of the foot is then freed up and you gain 2 sizes. Clever, eh?

A "LEARNING" TIP FROM LAILA, PLAY 5 SKATES PRODUCT MANAGER.

As parents, when our little ones start skating for the first time, our tendency is to hold both of their arms. It's an automatic reflex, but it's not actually a good idea. So how should you help your child? Take them somewhere with a handrail and tell them to just walk with baby steps while holding the rail in one hand. They're sure to get there!

RUBBER OR PLASTIC WHEELS AND BRAKES?

Unlike plastic, which skids but doesn't brake, rubber provides good traction. This stops your child from slipping when they push off, as well as helping them brake effectively. What's more, rubber also wears out less quickly than plastic.
Our Oxelo teams work hard to keep your child safe - however experienced they are. So we've chosen to equip all of our skates with wheels and brakes made out of rubber, not PVC.
