Boot Fit: Solaris VS Jet

- The good folks at Skate Ratz (sk8ratz.com), Bryan and Kristin, sent me a Riedell Solaris and an Antik Jet boot for a sanity fit-check, before I plunked down big $$$ on a skate boot purchase.
I knew where I was going before the fit-test and everything changed once I got the boots on my feet.
This video may be value added if you are on the fence. My suggestion is try before you buy! Visit Skate Ratz!!

Great video keep making them, cheers Brian
I had the Solaris and sold them in a few months. They stretched out so fast it felt a full size too big. Tall antiks hindered my mobility and I couldn't move as well. I'm in bonts but pretty sure the size is wrong. Now I'm looking at the jet carbons.
I just bought myself a Solaris boot myself, waiting on a set of Aries Plates to be ordered and mounted. I also loved the way the boot molded to the foot,initially felt great. Hopefully made the right choices. You're gonna have to do a video after you've have skated on it while.
The heel strap was the deciding factor for me. I hope you've enjoyed them!
Awesome review. Love your humor !
Hey there ! I was L@@King at your cool Video. I bought the Solaris from Sh8ratz few months back too, I haven't. I also got a red Arius plate, not place together yet. I'm about too :) but I was also interesting on the Antik jet Carbon too, but I guess you made me think about getting these, but I really don't like the strap thing :( I also like the Riedell Grand Prix cool boots :) but for now I'll stay with the Solaris :) Thank U :)
Too bad they didnt offer a lace cover option on the solaris like they do the 395s
"Its making love to my foot right now" lmao
Thanks for the video! Waiting on my Solaris. How’s it been so far?
Super-stoked with the Solaris boots!
Bill Gassett got mine! Awesome! Super comfy and improved my skating!
Could you post a video of your finished skates. Just wondering what setup you went with plates , wheels , bearings
Hey Johnny, see my reply to Christopher (above)....
What size shoe do you normally wear?
I wear size 12-13 in street shoes, depending on the brand and usage. The Antics are 11.5s and the Solaris is a 12.
Street shoe size 12. Apologies for the late reply!
Thanks for posting a sort of review for these! haha It's kind of hard to find much anecdotal information about them. sk8ratz is my shop too!
By my, I mean the one I shop at. :)
