Roller derby is a fun, physical sport where the aim of the game is to skate around an indoor oval rink and lap the opponents. A variation of this sport was invented in the US in the 1930s, but today, is played all around the world. In total, there are already more than 1250 teams, known as leagues. Most roller derby games are played on flat tracks rather than banked tracks. The sport is known for a high level of women players and for being welcoming to all kinds of people across the board.
Roller derby players wear boots with four wheels that look similar to classic roller skates. When competing, players choose their own name, which acts as their alter ego whenever playing derby. Furthermore, players are known for adding flair to their uniform, wearing for example vibrant makeup, face paint and fishnets.
Derby skating is known for being a very physical activity, and wearing protective gear is a must. Despite this physicality, junior leagues exist for younger players.
What Are Roller Derby Skates?
Roller derby skates are designed to give you an agile skating experience when taking part in a bout of roller derby. Derby skates are known for being low cut and with a short wheelbase, allowing for more movement and flexibility. The skates contain padding to ensure a comfortable fit and provide you with protection against any hard impacts.
Roller derby roller skates can be made out of leather, vegan-friendly artificial leather, or nylon ensuring a quality, durable boot.
How Should Roller Derby Skates Fit?
With derby skates, it is important to get a tight fit while at the same time not squeezing your feet. Depending on the model, some skates can be heat moulded to provide the perfect fit, however, be sure to check with the individual product before doing this.
So, what size roller derby skates should I buy? Remember that all brands develop their skates slightly differently, so it cannot be generalised if roller derby skates run big or small. Therefore, it is important to check the individual model’s size chart to make sure you get the right fit.

Choose the Right Protections for Roller Derby
Roller derby is a very intense, even aggressive contact sport in some cases. Therefore, wearing the right protection is a must. First, you will need a high-quality skating helmet: don't skimp on this item, the risk of concussion is really just around the corner! In addition, quality helmets allow more ventilation, which is no small advantage when temperatures rise. Then, you'll also need some good roller derby knee pads, elbow pads, and wrist pads: they're usually even more padded than regular skating pads; but if you already have pads for skating at the park, you're all set. Last but not least, a mouthguard that allows you to talk during matches or practise: roller derby is a team sport, so being able to communicate is essential.
In this category, you'll find many roller derby accessories such as protective gear, spare parts for your skates, and anatomical footies. But if you're looking for a backpack or bag to carry your equipment, check out our Skate Bags and Backpacks.
