Figure skates are generally white or black. Guys usually wear black skates and girls generally wear white skates.

@GalaxxVA, and the bad advice to look on Amazon will just lead to injuries, especially given the number of nonskating parents who will cheap out because their child is still growing. Granted, most won’t know better.

Professional figure skating boots are also quite hard and thick on the sides to give ankle support, but very soft on the inside which makes them comfortable

when you lean back in figure skates you don't really fall. but with hockey skates you will fall backwards....

There are thousands of male figure skaters…..believe me they don’t wear white skates they wear men’s black figure skates.

May I ask why, I actually prefer white than black shoes.

@@ngoduc4510 it has been a standard for male and figure skaters for years. If they a wearing a particular costume that calls for the skate to match the costume colour they just have boot covers made for that performance.

@@ngoduc4510 Men usually wear black pants with their costume, so black matches the best. There are some places that require women to wear tan boots but women generally wear white.

As a rule, black figure skates are boys or mens, and white are girls or womens. That said, with either type of skate, you really need to buy from a pro shop if at all possible. Poorly fit skates or cheaply made skates lead to injury. While skates can be bought online if absolutely necessary, as it was for me, buying a reputable brand, such as Riedell or Jackson(the most popular beginner figure brands….not sure what the equivalents for hockey skates are as I skate figure) and ideally from a specialist store.

@redmilk23 the rise of AI youtube channels is getting annoying. Bad grammar is rampant on them. And I'm really starting to suspect vids like this are using scripts made by chatgpt or something. It just seems very not human in the phrasing on nearly all of them. Also the info isn't anywhere near correct sometimes. Like the prices of hockey skates being 50-500 dollars? Most mid skates start at like 400. Information that could have been found by visiting one webstore.

What gloves do hockey players wear when fighting though?

Why was the audio for this recorded in an echo chamber? Very bad quality. Bummer that this is the first video to come up when searching this issue.

The "figure skates" you are using in the video on the lake outside are recreational skates imitating the look of figure skates. I hope that you are not basing your comparison on these. Since these skates are so soft, they crease at the ankle. This only happens to figure skates at the end of their lifespan - they are pretty much rubbish from that moment on.

My mid range hockey skates (Bauer Vapor 4X) were $500.

You're not going to find a pair of new senior hockey skates for $50. The range for player skates is generally from $130 for barely usable plastic to over $1100 for top-end skates, and goalie skates go from $210 to $1300.
