Skates for Boys: Spider-Man, Blue and Light-Up Skates

Skates for boys including Spider-Man inline skates and blue quad skates

Our skates for boys cover every stage, from small 4-wheel skates for a first try to fast inline skates with light-up wheels. Add a helmet and pads for KSh 400 more, and he can skate the day they arrive.

What are the best skates for boys?

For a boy who has never skated, the blue quad skates with a helmet and pads (KSh 5,899) are the steadiest start. For a boy with some balance, the Spider-Man inline skates (from KSh 5,499) are the favourite. For speed and wow factor, the Green LED set (KSh 8,499) has light-up wheels.

Choosing by age and skill

Small or narrow feet. The blue quad skates hold the foot with laces, a strap and a buckle. They start at EU 26.

Never skated. The same blue quads with the helmet and pads option give him four steady wheels plus the full kit, for KSh 5,899.

Rides a bike, wants speed. Either of our KSh 5,499 inline skates will suit him. The Spider-Man skates win for superhero fans, while the Blue Adventure skates suit boys who like cute character designs.

Already skates well. The Green LED set adds light-up wheels and a high-cut boot that supports the ankle at speed.

Gear he will actually wear

Boys who skate fast tend to fall fast too. Even so, getting them to wear a helmet can be a battle. Two things help: a helmet they like the look of, and a simple rule that skates only go on after the helmet does.

That is where the Spider-Man helmet earns its place. When the helmet feels like part of the costume, it stops being a chore. Read more in our skating safety tips for kids.

Skills to work on once he can glide

Once he is rolling, the next goals keep skating interesting. Teach him to stop with control first, then to turn both ways, then to skate backwards. Our skating games and drills for kids turn each skill into a game, which works well for boys who get bored with practice.
