Figure skaters are always looking to push the boundaries; they want the latest technology to help them. Our highly skilled technicians got feedback on what skaters wanted from boots, combined it with the latest research to create our revolutionary new boot – the Piano.
Two separate layers of anti-shock material have been placed at the bottom of the boot over the whole sole, one in the outer sole, one in the inner sole.
The increased control and sensitivity combines to allow the skater to perform the most technical routines and moves.
Double stitching provides the boots with extra strength across the lacing area ensuring greater accuracy and feel in lacing.
To make our skate even more fashion, we introduced the fashion sole. (Please note that the drawings do not provide blade mounting reference.)
For easy fitting Edea Piano boots are available in 5mm increments and 3 widths
B (narrow), C (standard), D (wide).
Colours:
White available from size 225 to 280.

Every time a skater lands a jump, there is an impact, the force of which depends on many things including how the jump is landed and the skater’s weight. The force has been estimated to be between seven and eight times the skater’s actual body weight…
The boot is the most important part of the skater’s equipment. At Edea we’ve created boots that are highly technical tools and to work properly they need to be correctly fitted…
To get the right size it is important to measure the foot correctly. You need to get the length of the foot in millimeters and then compare with the length of the boot…
Having the perfect fit boot is the biggest advantage a skater can have over their rivals. It gives the skater the extra confidence to do the hardest of routines and the increased feel means the routine can be perfectly executed…
Generally, skating coaches might be able to determine if the skater has the proper boot size only by looking at the skaters during the on-ice sessions. In addition, the following clues can be used to help you understand whether you are skating in the right size…
Edea have worked to maximize the performance of their boots. Because of the specially designed sole Edea boots require shorter blades…
It helps to keep the foot in the right position and ensures that the boot can work to its full potential and maximize performance…
The heel area is the part of the foot that controls the skate and it is essential that the heel is kept in place during skating.
For this reason we recommend that rather than even tension throughout the lace that an ‘egg timer’ pattern is followed as this ensures correct foot position and maximum flexibility…
On our PIANO boots a further binding is applied over the tongue to avoid it bending and hitting the top part of the toes during strenuous movements. The tightened laces keep the tongue firmly attached to the upper to maximize performance.
Clean the boot with water and unscented soap.
As the boots are waterproof this won’t damage your boots but it will make them sparkle….
