![]() This is thanks to softer foams, which could be used here as the skate is not aimed at people who seek performance, but created with comfort in mind.Īs expected from retro-style skates, Impala come with composite frame, riveted to the boot in ten points. Overall, it is really well designed and breaking in period is very short – for most people, the skates will be pain-free to use right out of the box. It gives a high level of comfort and holds foot well in place thanks to carefully modeled heel pocket. The liner is anatomically shaped, comfortable and with thick padding. Cuff is of course closed by a plastic buckle. Ending the subject of the shell, as expected in retro throwback skates, there is no 45 degree buckle or strap – thus, you need to lace it with care for a firm fit. There are slight differences, though, as Impala are equipped with new, more streamlined cuff than one used on Cult boot. For those who wonder how Impala managed to use the same shell as another company: it is an open mould, which means it is factory owned and available to use to every customer of theirs. It is a proven, reliable boot with long history. The mold used here should be well known to all die-hard inline skating fans – it is the same boot as one used by Razors aggressive skates, the Cult. Impalas are hardboot skates, built around a rigid outer shell with comfortable liner inside. Just put them on, lace up, close the top buckle and you are ready to go! Same as in case of classic skates like Rollerblade Lightning or Roces FCO, which ruled the streets in the past. All Impala skates look great and are ready to roll out of the box. Simplicity and style is what counts here. These skates are not about advanced tech, high performance or wide range of customisation options.
