Riedell R-Fit Footbed Kit Overview 

+Mitchell P. Yes these can be used in art boots. The Kit includes 3 types of arch supports that could help with your issue. Be sure purchase the footbeds marked in your size for Men's High Tops.

Apologies for any confusion. The R-Fit insole (or sock liner) is to replace the insole that came with the skate. So you'll want to take out the old sock liner, trace and cut the R-fit insole to match the size and shape of the old sock liner, then insert just the new R-Fit sock liner into the skate boot. Thank you.

Yes. Our R-Fit Bootbeds will work with our Model 336 boot. Be sure to order this one: www.roller.riedellskates.com/Catalog/Tools-and-Accessories/R-Fit-Footbeds/R-Fit-Footbed-Kit-Mens-High-Top. Thank you.

The R-Fit Kit was designed to work with Riedell-branded skate boots. They should work with your SEBA inlines, but we can't guarantee fit accuracy for products beyond our own. Thank you.

Thank you, @@RiedellRoller

They should. Are the vintage 297 boots black or white in color? If white, we'd recommend going with the Low-Cut/All Women's Hightop R-Fit Kit (www.roller.riedellskates.com/Catalog/Tools-and-Accessories/R-Fit-Footbeds/R-Fit-Footbed-Kit-Low-Cut). If black, we'd recommend going with the All Men's Hightop R-Fit Kit (www.roller.riedellskates.com/Catalog/Tools-and-Accessories/R-Fit-Footbeds/R-Fit-Footbed-Kit-Mens-High-Top). All the R-Fits will require some trimming to fit exactly with the boot, but there should be an R-Fit option that will work for your needs with your vintage 297 boots. Hopefully, that helps. Thank you.

@@RiedellRoller the boots are red. i believe it’s a 6 in men’s sizing if that helps

@@brcsephina we'd recommend going with the All Men's Hightop R-Fit Kit (www.roller.riedellskates.com/Catalog/Tools-and-Accessories/R-Fit-Footbeds/R-Fit-Footbed-Kit-Mens-High-Top). Thank you.

@@RiedellRoller the men’s r fit kit for hightops in size 6-7.5 did not work unfortunately :( they were too wide at the arch, and trimming them would have defeated the purpose of the adjustable arch height

@@brcsephina We are sorry to hear that. It sounds like the vintage 297 boots were actually a woman's width boot, not a men's width that you had indicated.

Yes, since we manufacture Moxi Lolly skates in our facility, they use our footbed dies in their products. The R-Fit footbed works great with the Lolly. You'll want to purchase the "All Low Cut and Women's High Top" version of the R-Fit Kit: www.roller.riedellskates.com/Catalog/Tools-and-Accessories/R-Fit-Footbeds/R-Fit-Footbed-Kit-Low-Cut. The footbeds are made slightly larger in the ball to be trimmed to the specific footbed dimensions. So you'll want to trace your current footbed onto of the R-Fit kit and then trim the excess. Thank you.

Yes! Check our the R-Fits available for ice skates by visiting our website at www.ice.riedellskates.com/Catalog/Accessories/R-Fit-Footbeds. Thank you.

You could put paper towel or facial tissue to fill up space in your boot. However, you may need to change this regularly as it could get sweaty when you skate. Another option would be to visit your local shoe repair shop. They might have a solution or some material that could be inserted into the toe area to fill up space. If that isn't an option you could always contact our Repairs Department, and we could look at relasting the boot for the smaller foot down a size or a half size to fit your foot better. There would be an expense to this and our Repairs Dept. can over that with you. You can contact us at 800-698-6893 or email customerservice@riedellskates.com. Thank you.
