    The Revolution of Custom Skates: Bont’s Pioneering Journey

    In 1974, an innovative leap from Bont forever changed the skating landscape. This was the year when Bont introduced the world to custom boots, a concept that was not just novel but revolutionary. It began a new era in custom skate design and comfort, spearheaded by Mr. Inze Bont. His dedication and craftsmanship led him to develop these unique skate boots customised for the wearer, setting a new standard in the skating world.

    Interestingly, it took a year of diligent work and refinement before the first pair of Bont custom boots were sold in 1975. This patience and commitment to quality underscored the ethos of Bont, a characteristic that continues to define the company today.

    Fast forward to the present, and Bont is a custom skate manufacturing leader. The company proudly produces more custom boots per week than all other custom skate makers combined. This is a testament to the popularity of Bont's products and the exceptional quality and craftsmanship that goes into each pair.

    The boot makers are at the heart of Bont's custom boot success. Each custom boot maker at Bont has a minimum of 15 years of experience in the art of boot making, exclusively with Bont. This level of expertise ensures that every custom skate boot is crafted with unparalleled skill and precision, offering skaters the best in comfort, performance, and style.

    From the inception of the custom skate boot to its current status as a staple in the skating community, Bont’s journey is a remarkable tale of innovation, dedication, and excellence.

    How Custom Skate Boots Are Made

    Ever wondered how custom boots are made for roller skates? Let's dive into this fascinating process of custom skate manufacturing.

    Custom Skates Step 1: Taking a Mold of Your Foot

    It all starts with your foot. We use various methods like resin-impregnated socks, laser scanning, or plaster bandages. But our unique method, invented by Inze Bont in 1974, involves alginate and plaster. This technique perfectly captures your foot's shape to help create the perfect custom skates.

    Custom Skates Step 2: Sculpting the Mold

    Next, we refine the mold used to create your custom skates. We trim away the fatty tissue areas and shape the Achilles region to ensure a snug, comfortable fit. This step is crucial for that perfect fit.

    Custom Skates Step 3: Building the Boot

    Now, we build the skate boot around your foot mold. It's a meticulous process, ensuring every part of the boot conforms to your foot's contours. The foot mold is then carefully broken and removed, leaving a custom skate boot shaped just for you.

    Step 4: The Finished Boot Comes to You

    Finally, the finished custom skate boot, crafted to your foot's unique shape, is ready and sent directly to you. It's not just a boot; it's a custom-made skating masterpiece for your feet.
