Design & Build Quality

I’ve been skating for a while and I recently purchased my first pair of Moxi Skates. The design and build quality of the skates is great. The wheels and trucks need to be loosened before use.

The tongue and laces are thick and may need adjustment, but the padding and support of the boots are great. The colors and construction are also nice.

There’s enough room for your toes to wiggle and there are toe guards for extra protection.

Wheels & Trucks

Before using my Moxi skates, I suggest loosening the wheels and trucks for a more comfortable ride.

I found that most of the wheel maintenance is easy to do and can be completed with just a screwdriver.

It’s important to adjust the trucks appropriately so that you can achieve the right balance and feel for your skating style.

The trucks also need to be loosened to a certain degree to make sure the wheels can roll easily.

I found that if the trucks are too tight, it can be difficult to turn and maneuver.

If they’re too loose, you’ll find it hard to stay in control at higher speeds.

It’s important to take the time to get the right balance for your skating style.

A few adjustments can go a long way towards ensuring a safe and comfortable ride.

Tongue & Laces

The laces and thick tongue of my skates needed adjusting for proper fit and comfort. I was careful to lace them up using techniques that avoid damage. This was important to prevent any further discomfort on my feet.

I started from the bottom, going up and around the tongue. I used a criss-cross pattern to make sure the laces were tight and secure. To prevent the laces from sinking into the tongue, I made sure to lace them up evenly.

I then tied them in a bow, making sure the knot was loose and would not put too much pressure on my feet. After a few skate sessions, the laces and tongue had molded to my feet and provided enough room for my toes to wiggle.

Padding & Support

I transitioned to the Moxi skates from a cheaper pair, so I was pleasantly surprised by the padding and support. The quality of the padding was definitely improved, with a snug fit and arch support that was comfortable. The padding was thick enough to protect my feet from the hard shell while still allowing for flexibility.

I appreciated the thick tongue and laces, which allowed me to adjust the skates to my feet, but I had to be careful not to overtighten them and cause damage. Overall, the padding and support of the Moxi skates was definitely better than the cheaper skates I had used before.

Colors & Construction

Attractively designed, the Moxi Skates had a solid construction and came in cute colors. The design options allowed me to express my personality, while the sizing options meant I could get the perfect fit.

The toe guards provided extra protection, while the thick tongue and laces may need adjustment to avoid pinching.

The wheels and trucks were also suitable for outdoor use, though they’ll need to be loosened before use.

Overall, the skates were a great option for beginners, offering improved quality compared to cheaper skates and an affordable alternative to higher-priced skates.

The construction of the skates is solid, with a thick tongue and laces that may need adjustment. The colors are also super cute, with something for everyone. The padding and support of the boots are great, giving you a secure feeling.

Performance

The Moxi skates have definitely helped me improve my skating skills and I’m looking forward to exploring what else they can do!

Durability

The solid construction of Moxi skates make them a great choice for lasting durability. I was pleasantly surprised by how well made they were when I compared them to other skates. The toe guards are especially strong and provide excellent protection. The wheels and trucks were also strong and had no signs of damage. I’m confident they’ll last a long time, even with regular use.

The laces and tongue are thick, so I suggest loosening them before skating to avoid any discomfort. The color and design of the skates are quite cute, too.

Overall, these skates offer great value and longevity. They are definitely worth the price and are perfect for beginners.

Responsiveness

I found that the responsiveness of Moxi Skates was great for a beginner. I followed the sizing chart closely, but went up a size from my usual 9 to an 8, which gave plenty of room for my toes to move.

After breaking in the skates, I noticed they had a nice, responsive feel. It took around 12 hours of skate time for the skates to mold to my foot and avoid blisters–patience was key!

Despite the thick tongue and laces needing adjustment, I was impressed with the overall quality. The wheels and trucks were easy to loosen and the toe guards provided a good amount of protection.

Overall, these skates are a great option for those looking for an affordable alternative.

Control

The responsiveness of Moxi skates was great, but the control is even better. Breaking in the skates is important, as it takes around 12 hours of skate time to mold them to your feet.

It’s also important to pay attention to the toe box width for comfort. My skates had a slightly narrow toe box, but I was able to adjust the laces and tongue for better control. The thick foam padding provided great support.

The trucks and wheels also need to be loosened before using, for better control and maneuverability. I could turn and skate on the spot with ease.

The design also helps to keep your feet in place and provide stability. Overall, the Moxi skates provided great control and maneuverability for a beginner.

Maintainance

As a beginner Moxi skater, I’ve learned that proper lacing techniques and tightening of wheels are essential to ensure a comfortable and safe skate.

To ensure that my skates fit snugly around my feet, I make sure to use the criss-cross lacing technique to evenly distribute the pressure.

Additionally, I make sure to tighten my wheels to the appropriate level before each skate session to ensure a smooth and safe ride.

Lacing Techniques

Lacing my Moxi skates properly is key to avoiding discomfort and getting the most out of them.

There are different lacing techniques depending on the type of skate and the desired fit.

I like to use the ‘criss-cross’ method, which involves crossing the laces over each other in an X-shape. This is great for making the shoe snug and secure, while also preventing tongue damage.

I also like to use the ‘ladder’ method, which involves lacing the skates in a series of loops. This provides a more relaxed fit, while still keeping the foot securely in place.

I always make sure to avoid lacing the skates too tightly as this can lead to blisters and other foot problems.

Finally, I like to double-tie the laces for extra security and to make sure the laces stay in place.

With a few simple techniques, I can make sure my Moxi skates are comfortable and provide adequate support.

Tightening Wheels

Before skating, I always tighten the wheels on my skates to ensure a smooth ride. Adjusting the tightness of the wheels is an important part of maintenance and should be done before every skate session.

I prefer to tighten the nuts and bolts on the wheels to the point where they are just slightly tight to the touch. If they are too loose, I risk them coming loose during skating, but if they are too tight I can damage the trucks.

To adjust the tightness, I use a skate tool to turn the nuts and bolts until I feel they are tight enough. This also allows for some flexibility to increase the tightness if needed.

Maintenance tips like this are essential for beginner skaters like me to ensure their skates last for years to come.

Who Is It for

I’m a beginner skater and Moxi skates are a great choice for me. They’re comfortable, good sizing, protective, and suitable for outdoor use.

But who should avoid them? If you have wide feet, you may want to try a different skate. It’s also important to use the sizing chart and go up a size if you’re unsure. With lacing and proper tightening, I found the toe box to be narrow and cramped. So, make sure to loosen the wheels and trucks before use.

It’s also essential to break in the skates, which can take up to 12 hours. But, with patience, you’ll avoid blisters.

Worth Buying

Overall, I’d say Moxi skates are worth buying for beginners who get the right sizing and fit. I bought a used pair and was pleased with the padding and support of the boots. The toe guards provided good protection and the wheels were suitable for outdoor use.

I followed the sizing chart but should have gone up a size. It’s important to note that skates need to be broken in, so patience is key to avoiding blisters. For a comfortable fit, I suggest lacing the skates up properly and loosening the wheels and trucks before use. The thick tongue and laces may need some adjusting, but overall, the quality is much better than cheaper skates.

My advice is to look for sizing tips and don’t be afraid to go up a size if unsure.

How We Tested It: What We Liked and What We Didn’t

I tested the skates for comfort and fit, noting what I liked and didn’t like.

I followed the sizing chart and opted for a size 8 instead of my usual size 9 and found that there was enough room for my toes to wiggle.

I compared the Moxi Skates to another pair of skates, and what I liked was the padding and support of the boots. However, I found the toe box to be a bit narrow and caused my toes to feel cramped.

I returned the skates after 10 days due to the discomfort and opted for a more flexible suede skate instead.

Testing methods and comfort comparison revealed the Moxi Skates to be a great starter skate, with improved quality over cheaper options. However, patience is key to avoid blisters due to the need to break them in.
