The Riedlel 495 is one of the highest quality skate boots produced by Riedell. Designed off their classic 595 model with some slick upgrades to improve comfort ans performance. The Ridell 495 boots come in the narrow B/AA width as standard to provide a snug fit for slender footed skaters (you would be surprised how many of you are out there!). The 495s also come in the wider D/B width to fit wider feet. They have an innovative heel locking system to reduce heel slip when sprinting and doing toe stop work, and reinforces leather counters to reduce the leather stretching over time. Double Threat Skates co-founderGaz has skated in Riedell 495s for years!
