Overview
The Riedell R3 Outdoor Skate is the R3's first official foray outdoors under the sun, but it comes with a long history of being one of the most-recommended beginner skates on the market. Previous iterations of the R3 quickly became the go-to skate of choice for new skaters due to its sneaker-like fit and quality construction. The R3 Outdoor has a Thrust nylon plate and 62mm Sonar Zen Wheels that carry an 85A hardness, slightly more firm than typical outdoor wheels. We're big fans of the 85A, which is still soft enough to feel good on not-so-smooth outdoor surfaces but hard enough provide a really solid response that feels more natural. Like most of the components on these skates, the toe stop on the front is both adjustable and replaceable. That means that you can fine-tune your skates to roll exactly how YOU want them!

Sizing Chart
GENERAL SIZING GUIDELINES | |

Skate sizing can differ from skate to skate and it is generally very different from shoe sizing. We strongly recommend using foot length to determine your skate size. Detailed instructions on how to measure your feet can be found in our Learning Center by Clicking Here. | |
