Jackson UltimaSoftSkate Womens/Girls Figure Skate

I bought the Jackson Ultima SoftSkate for recreational skating, and they have been a fantastic choice. The padding inside makes them very comfortable, so I didn’t experience the usual stiffness or discomfort that comes with breaking in new skates. The support around the ankle is great, providing stability without feeling too rigid.The blades come pre-sharpened and glide smoothly on the ice, making them perfect for beginners or casual skaters. They also look stylish with the classic design. If you’re looking for a high-quality, comfortable pair of figure skates for yourself or your child, these are definitely worth considering!

First off, skates in general seem to run large yet narrow. I wear a 9.5 shoe, regular width. (In shoes that don't have half-sizes, I wear a 10.) With skates, I have what are considered to be wide feet. (This is a common shoe-to-skate conversion: having normal-width shoes but needing wide-width skates.)At any rate, I just want to help people with sizing. I ordered these skates in a 9, and they fit perfectly with a nice pair of cushy, thick socks. I knew, based on my experience with skates, that the 10s would be too big. The 9s are great. I hope this is helpful info!I love these skates! They came sharpened in a way that is great for my somewhat-beginner skating. They're pretty with the purple, and I love the silver detailing. They feel good on my feet and have more support than I thought a beginner skate would have (albeit, I am a beginning skater).The only flaw is that the upper sides (where the metal lace-holders are) are bent out too wide. This is readily fixed by tightening your laces extra tight. I'm not sure if the flimsy white/purple laces that came with these skates would be up to it, but I use my own laces anyway. If you get thick hockey laces like I use, they help keep your skates tightened. (I don't know of any skate on the market that comes with substantial laces, so I'm hesitant to remove a star for it.) For these skates, I'd recommend using 108" hockey laces, which come in many pretty colors.

The media could not be loaded. I have a foot size 8,5 and I ordered first size 9 and it's too big. But size of ice skates 8 is perfect!Blade sharp! They are cozy and warm!

I love the comfort of these boots and the quality. I usually wear a 10 but went down into a size 9. They fit perfectly. If you have wide foot, keep to the size that you are.Love these skates.

The blades were NOT sharpened, so I’m confused why they have a product image that says it’s a “factory sharpened blade.” They were completely dull out of the box. I had to take them to a local store for sharpening before I could use them.Other than that, it’s a pretty good beginner pair of skates for the low price. They look cute, and are sturdy. It can be difficult to tighten them up adequately. I have to pull very hard and often re-tie to get them tight enough for decent ankle support.When I get better I’ll definitely buy a nicer quality pair, but this is a good step up from rental skates without too much of an investment.

A friend of mine wanted some better ice skates than she had and had told me she wanted a pair of Jackson's. I dont know very much about ice skating but she told me that this company makes some of the best skates on the market for the price. So I got them for her so that they would be both a Christmas and Birthday gift as her Birthday is in December. From what she has told me, the skates are great. There were some other things I bought her to complete the setup but this was the most important thing. After she had them for awhile, she dyed them in this pretty light blue color as she didnt really like the white color. Since she lives in Washington State there are a couple of Skating rinks she can go to there and shes utilized both. It will be a year that shes had them come Dec 2024.UPDATE: Shes actually looking into buying another pair of Jackson's but a different kind that are a bit more expensive. These are more of the professional ones as the ones we got are great skates but they are more for practicing or learning and not really meant for competitions or shows.

Nice quality. Look very good. Comfortable daughter loves um.

I did a bunch of research and basically took a chance on these skates. So glad I did!! #1 recommendation was having the right fit (not too snug, but not too big: Goldilocks Fit-Needs to be just right). I measured my foot and ordered a size 8 based on the sizing chart. Fit was perfect. #2 recommendation was to have some type of padding within the ankle of the skate. I'm so grateful that I listened to this. These skates fit this requirement perfect!! Very comfy, no scraping on my ankles!! I'm 41 and I haven't skated in over five years. I skated once or twice if at all for the previous 12 years. I wanted to teach my daughter how to skate which led to this purchase. First time on the ice with her is something I will never forget!!! I will skating more frequently now!!!
