They feature thick white felt with a stitched synthetic leather overlay and integrated anti-lace bite guards. They come in one size and fit most senior-sized hockey skates. The Felt Skate Tongues require professional stitching which your local shoe repair shop can easily handle. Sold in pairs.

My personal adviceI haven't bought these, but I would just like to give you guys some suggestions: #1: don't lace your skates to the top ring - maybe even skip the top two if needed #2 put your shin pads on the outside of your tongue (seriously!) and cut the bottom of your socks so that they go over your skates easier #3 don't wrap your skates with your laces or tape them #4 (and I just learned this -haven't tried it yet) lace your skates from the outside on the last few rings so that they pull your skates together while the laces are further out #5 if you are buying skates, get ones with very thick tongues #6 do use some kind of gel or padding (thick) that extends well below and above the area that hurts. This stuff might work, and #7 lastly, don't tie them so dang tight at the top. These aren't supposed to be as tight as ski boots at the ankle and above. Your feet need some room to move. You might even find yourself a bit more agile.
