Performance

Lightweight

patrick_chan-light-300x168 Ice DiscoveryOur boots are designed with lightness in mind making them ideal for a novice. The lightness will help the skater feel more at home on the ice.

Stabile

control-stability-1-300x236 Ice DiscoveryThe unique insole made with fiberglass and nylon allows more power transmission and increase the stability.

control-stability-2 Ice DiscoveryIt also allows for the thickness of the sole to be reduced thus lowering the centre of gravity and giving the skater even greater control and stability.

tacco-classico-300x216 Ice DiscoveryThe unique heel design adds further stability to the boot. The curve on the heel increases weight distribution, allowing the heel to be in contact with over half the insole giving the skater a sense of oneness with the ice.

Lacing

motivo-lacing-300x139 Ice DiscoveryUses the same lacing system as the high performance models allowing for greater accuracy and feel in lacing. A lace puller will make getting the skates on and off easier for the beginner.

Comfort

Wiggle Room

Wiggle-Room-297x300 Ice DiscoveryWith the lower profile of the design because of the thin sole we’ve added an extra couple of millimeters of room for the toes for added comfort. Because of the thinner sole our boots have a lower profile. This means we’ve been able to add an extra couple of millimeters of room for the toes for added comfort while retaining our lower profile.

Padded

collarini Ice DiscoveryThe Motivo’s padding is a step up from Brio and includes an extra soft microfiber antibacterial lining with extra padding on both the tongue and cuffs to make the skater feel at home.

Anatomical

Anatomical-164x300 Ice DiscoveryAll Edea skates are designed around the foot with curves and strength to hold the heel in place, to support the foot and give the best fit and maximum comfort.

Easy Care

Waterproof Sole

waterproof Ice DiscoveryOur high-tech soles are made with ultra modern material making them both light and waterproof. Just what skaters need.

Leather

The Motivo is made from the same leather as our top of the range boots. A special water repellent treatment makes EDEA skates easier to maintain.

Hygenic

motivo_collarino-300x258 Ice DiscoveryThe antibacterial lining  also makes for  better hygiene than old fashioned boots.

Latest Technology for Blade Mounting

Double-Helix-Screws-300x263 Ice DiscoveryAll our models use a special double helix screw fixed through predrilled holes to fix the blades. They are designed to hold the blades more firmly and for longer than old methods making skating safer and more fun.

Designed and Made in Italy

Love-Italy Ice DiscoveryEverything at EDEA is done at our factory in a little village at the foot of the Alps. This means we can control design, quality and production. You buy our boots knowing they’ve been cared for from the drawing board until they are placed in the box to be sent to the shops.

Motivo Tech Specs

MOTIVO_RUOTE-2_900-1-300x265 Ice DiscoveryThe EDEA MOTIVO is a High Quality way for the for Serious Beginners and Adult Skaters that prefer a mid stiff construction Skate to have the support and control that ALL EDEA Skates offer, but at a very good price point for the Beginning Amateur Level Skating Boot.  The Light Mid Stiff Construction features Beautiful Leather finish outside and Padded MicroFibre Lining.  The EDEA MOTIVO is made with Revolutionary NEW Ultra Lightweight Materials, which means the MOTIVO is about 25% to 45% lighter than comparable Skating Boots and is available from SkatesUS.com.  EDEA Skates are Beautiful Italian Skates, even at this smaller price point.

The MicroFibre Lining ventilates the perspiration quickly.  The Anatomically Shaped Foam Padding and Formed fit of the boot is shaped by the Thermoformable Structure and provides the best in foot contact and control while giving the movement range to allow Great Learning and Performances. Other features are the Rounded Heel base Shape which more evenly distributes the weight and adds torsional stability, the Full Wrapped Padding of the collar of the Skate for wonderful comfort, and the Shaped Padded Tongue.

control-stability-1-300x236 Ice DiscoveryThe unique EDEA Footbed is torsionally rigid but with just a bit of vertical compression, that creates a lower center of gravity in the Skate, creating a lower displacement which greatly increases stability and control.  The Footbed and bottom cover will not absorb moisture and WILL Securely hold the special EDEA screws, used to mount the Ice Blades.  For a very detailed Technology White Paper on the differences between EDEA Skates and traditional Leather Skates, please take a little time and read Why EDEA Skates are so Special  from the Learning Center of SkatesUS.com.

In most cases the Break-In period is just a few hours, not days, weeks, or Months, but the most important Features are how LIGHT and COMFORTABLE the EDEA MOTIVO is!

EDEA Skates fit a great majority of Skaters (because of the newly designed shoe lasts), right out of the box, but some have need of special accommodations to give that perfect fit. EDEA Skates ALL have a Thermoformable Structure which allows manipulation of the boot to give the perfect Custom fit without the Custom price . EDEA Skates use a special Memory Foam and DO NOT use gel packs or standard foam that are heated in an oven, then the foot inserted to shape the inside padding of the boot only, this method allows change and movement of the old style padding over time, which is not a good thing. EDEA Skates DO use very high tech materials (similar to a carbon fiber or Kevlar material) which can be shaped using Heat Guns and Special Shoe Lasts, in very specific locations or general widening or narrowing of the Skating Boot. This “Shaping” is actually changing the Structural Shape of the Skate. Once the boot is “Shaped”, it will stay in that shape, until the “Shaping” process is changed again. SkatesUS.com provides this very special Custom Fitting service.

Wave Tech Specs

Speculare-Wave-Vola-1-438x438 Ice Discovery

Available only in White color. Start a fashion rage with illusion and grace. Pay close attention to the 3D texture and evolved lacing system. This boot is not like any other!
The Wave is a ready-to-skate boot designed with adults or the serious beginner in mind.

TecnoMicro_Techno-Micro-3D-150x150 Ice DiscoveryFinally something new that is not only pleasing to the eyes, but also engages your sense of touch. Feel the rise and fall of the waves as your fingers perceive our new professional TechnoMicro material. We discuss Technomicro as a composite microfiber created from threads that are so thin that each one is less than one thousandth the thickness of the silk. These threads act like natural leather, but with the advantage of being more resistant, plus they are soft to the touch, and offer lightweight properties. Technomicro is not only water resistant, but  is also highly resistant to abrasion and tearing.

Speculare-Wave-4°-gancio-1-285x285 Ice DiscoveryDo you want the secret to superior control of your skates? It’s all in the lacing! Lace securely at the instep (bottomost two hooks) and softer around the ankle (top two hooks). The hook has been positioned just below the point of flexion and has an inclination of 30 ° in order to follow that of the foot. In combination, by using 4 hooks it is now easier and faster to lace and unlace your boots since you are now able to tighten and close in more precisely.

Complete EDEA Skate Outfits

SkatesUS.com is providing the opportunity to have a completed EDEA Skate Outfit including the top Ice Blades appropriately used at this level.  All of these Custom High Level EDEA Skate Outfits will take about one week, as not all of the Blades are kept in stock.  It is highly recommended to use this time make sure that the fit of the EDEA Skate is proper prior to any Mounting of the Blade or “Shaping” of the Boot.

When the EDEA Skate Outfit is paid for, SkatesUS.com will ship the EDEA Skates to verify the correct size and then we will cover the cost of the return shipping after trying on the EDEA Skates prior to mounting the Blades and complete the very high level, high performance EDEA Skate Outfit.  For more details on this service see the SkatesUS.com Boot Sizing Policy (which is only valid in the United States).  Once the Blade is Mounted or the Boot is “Shaped,” the Skates are no longer considered New and CANNOT be Returned.  All International orders are final, once paid for and shipped.

The EDEA Skate Complete Outfit is only returnable if the items are in new, unused condition, meaning they have not been shaped or mounted prior to return. We highly recommend confirming correct size before ordering the items to be mounted. Please refer to the SkatesUS.com Boot Sizing Policy listed under our Terms & Conditions of site for more information.

Custom Shaping Services

SkatesUS.com will help with any Custom Shaping Services, as needed.  There may be labor charges for the Custom Shaping Services.  Some of our Dealers are also trained in the Shaping process and can do an excellent job locally.

Remember with EDEA Skates, the Carbon Fibre type material is not like leather and will not just change shape on its own.  If something pressures, it will always pressure, until it is adjusted and then once the Skate is adjusted, it will not pressure and will stay that way unless it is changed again.  When we are “Shaping” the Skate, we are “Shaping” the shell or structure of the Skate.  Once it hardens into the new shape, it will stay that way until changed again.

The best way for us to work on the Skates, is of course to have the Skater’s feet to put into the Skates and find out where the pressure points are.
If that is not possible, please trace the foot on a piece of paper and mail (yes, snail mail) or put good measurements on the drawings in mm or inches.  When a drawing is scanned or faxed, it is scaled and makes a good reference, but is not accurate for measurements.  The second part of this is to take some digital pictures of the feet and E-Mail them to OrderDesk@SkatesUS.com and to Info@SkatesUS.com.  Pictures will help us to visualize the issues, but the drawings with measurements are essential. Please do not put your feet in the Boots and then heat them.  This process will be too hot for your feet.
