Choose from BNT colors, the Gwendal limited edition (GLP7), and the Erin Jackson limited edition in this USA warehouse closeout. These lightweight 195mm inline speed skating boots are designed for experienced skaters and professional racers. Their 100% carbon fiber bases, snug heels, and thin neoprene padding suit experienced skaters seeking a responsive, close-fitting racing boot.
Gwendal limited edition (GLP7)
Seven-time world champion Gwendal Le Pivert, a member of the French National Team and Team Bont Europe, designed this limited-edition boot. A matte white Durolite upper with shiny gold accents gives the BNT's clean, classical lines a distinctive finish. BNT embroidery on the lace cover, GLP 7 branding on the side, and Bont's circle logo at the rear complete the design.
Erin Jackson limited edition
This limited edition celebrates Olympic gold medalist and world champion Erin Jackson. The BNT is the boot model she wore to win gold at the world championships. Its Durolite outer skin changes color with the light, with Bont embroidery on the lace cover, Erin Jackson branding on the side, and Bont's circle logo at the rear. The clean, classical design keeps the lines simple.
Lightweight carbon fiber construction
The 100% carbon fiber base has a matte finish and uses Bont's epoxy thermoset resin. Its one-piece construction and minimalist design keep the boot light, without excess padding or zippers. Standard BNT colors and the Gwendal limited edition have no bumpers or thermoplastics; the Erin Jackson limited edition includes toe protectors.
A close-fitting racing boot
The snug heel and thin, firm 2 mm neoprene padding provide a highly responsive feel. The closed-cell foam does not absorb water, helping the boot remain lightweight. This fit is intended for experienced racers who prefer close contact with the boot; skaters who favor generous cushioning should consider that difference when choosing.
The Durolite outer skin is also used on Bont's Vaypor skates. Inside, the Suede-L liner is comfortable with or without socks. The fully heat-moldable base and thermo-moldable EVA innersole allow the fit to be adjusted.
Secure lacing and a ventilated tongue
The ventilated tongue helps keep the foot cool, while Velcro holds the tongue in place. Tongue padding helps prevent lace bite, and waxed laces have minimal stretch to maintain consistent tension. The lace cover and buckle are simple to access and adjust.
195mm mounting and durable hardware
The boot has a 195mm mount separation and a 12 mm pitch. Aluminum mounting blocks use a hardened steel nut for durability, and the mounting screws are treated with Loctite to help prevent loosening during races. Bont reports that it has never had a skate returned because of mounting block issues.
