K2 Skates

Softboot

In 1994, K2 revolutionized the skate industry by introducing the first-ever Softboot inline skate. This patented K2 technology provided skaters with the precision and accuracy of a hardshell boot, in a new, comfortable and lighter weight softboot design. The sport instantly became more enjoyable and easier, changing inline skating forever. Fifteen years later, the Softboot design is still the foundation of K2’s collection. Many companies have followed K2’s direction, and today, K2’s Original Softboot Technology still remains the design standard by which all other manufacturers measure themselves. Often imitated, but never duplicated, K2 is the Original Softboot and continues to push the envelope of inline skate innovation.

Stability Cuff

The Stability cuff offers fitness skaters confidence and control. Men's and women's anatomical designs are contoured to match male and female ankle profiles for better balance and support.

Women's Design Philosphy

The days of women wearing men’s skates in different color ways are a thing of the past. Women deserve quality, fit and performance and that is what K2 delivers. With the help of the K2 Skate Alliance, K2’s engineers have designed our patented Softboot™ to fit the anatomically different calf and foot shape of women creating a skate that is so responsive with a fit so great that no woman would dare put their foot in a unisex hardboot again.K2 donates a portion of all T:Nine skate sales to organizations committed to finding a cure for breast cancer. We proudly support The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.
