Superior Carbon Fiber Construction in Men's and Women's Roller Skates

At Bont, we exclusively source our carbon for roller skate production from Toray of Japan, the world's leading carbon manufacturer. The carbon base of Bont roller skate boots, including our men's roller skates and women's roller skates, is meticulously crafted by hand, sandwiching different types of carbon. The fibers are strategically laid in the matrix based on the strain they will have to bear. The carbon is then embedded with an epoxy thermosetting resin. This meticulous process results in roller skates, roller derby skates, and speed skates that are not only super strong but also incredibly lightweight. Experience the Bont difference today and find your perfect pair of roller skates near you.

Unmatched Comfort with Our Foam Padding

At Bont, we prioritize your comfort and performance. Unlike most brands of roller skates for men and women, we exclusively use closed-cell memory foam in our roller skates and roller derby boots. While open-cell foam, used by many other brands, is cheaper, it absorbs sweat and water, which can compromise the comfort and durability of the skates. Our closed-cell foam, on the other hand, does not absorb sweat or water, ensuring that your Bont roller skates remain comfortable and high-performing, even in the most demanding conditions.

Resin Development: The Bont Difference

At Bont, we go the extra mile to ensure the quality and performance of our roller skates for men and women. We are likely the only skate manufacturer who develops our own resins in-house. This allows us to formulate a resin for our roller skate, roller derby, and speed skating boots that is super stiff, yet becomes moldable at low temperatures and has a fast cure time. Our resin softens at just 60°C (140°F), the lowest in the industry, and once set, it is permanently molded without the need for remolding. You can also reheat the resin as many times as you like.

Unlike most manufacturers who use a process known as pre-preg, where the resin is "pre-impregnated" into the carbon fiber by the carbon fiber manufacturer, we control the entire process. This ensures that our resin meets the heat moldability requirements of modern shoes, allowing our roller skates to be molded at much lower temperatures for a perfect fit. This level of attention to detail is what sets Bont roller skates apart.

One-Piece Skate Construction: The Bont Advantage

Bont stands out in the roller skate industry with our unique method of producing high-end roller skates, speed skates, and roller derby skates through a process we call One-Piece Construction. This process is more skill-intensive and time-consuming, resulting in higher costs than the mainstream skate construction method, but it's what allows Bont roller skates to lead the market in performance.

Unlike two-piece boots, where the base is pre-made and the liner and outer skin are glued onto the base, our one-piece construction involves stitching the outer skin to the anti-stretch material that has been bonded into the carbon. This results in a more durable and long-lasting boot. While two-piece roller skate boots may have cosmetic stitching, the stitching on Bont one-piece roller skate boots serves a functional purpose, contributing to the overall strength and durability of the skate.

So, whether you're searching for "roller skates near me", "mens roller skates", "womens roller skates", or "roller skates for men/women", Bont's one-piece construction offers superior performance and durability. Experience the Bont difference today.

HISTORY

Bont Skates was founded in Sydney in 1975 when Inze Bont, a recreational short track ice speed skater decided to fiberglass the back of his leather speed skates to gain more support. Bont quickly became the world's largest producer of ice speed skates and then branched out into inline speed skates, quad speed skates, roller derby skates, and long track speed skates. Bont was the first footwear manufacturer to use exotic material like fiberglass in 1974, Kevlar in 1986 and Carbon Fiber in 1989, and the first to use heat moldable resins and thermoplastics. Bont was also the first company to use adjustable ice blades and remains the world's largest producer of speed skates and custom speed skates.
