A great first pair of skates for the kids! The Marlee has a flashy new look and all the features needed to have a blast on wheels.
The vibration absorbing composite frame is interlocked with the base, keeping children more balanced by being lower to the ground. The familiar traditional lacing allows them to lace up on their own while the Stability Plus Cuff provides a secure fit with ample support for that extra confidence boost.
Also a great value for parents, the Marlee has five full sizes of adjustability, keeping these skates in use for more than one season.

Finding your perfect size
Foot length is crucial to find your ideal K2 Skates size. It is important to measure both feet, because they are often different. To select your size, choose the longer/wider foot and it’s better to do it in the evening or after sports when they are most swollen.
No tears, just fun
When it comes to fit, the most important area is in the heel pocket of the boot. The heel should stay put, without any movement when you kick and slide.
Why?
Proper sizing prevents blisters and also ruining the liner boot.
Instructions on how to measure your foot length:
- 1. Wear your skating socks (the socks you would wear when you skate) and place your feet onto a piece of paper. One edge and your heel should be parallel and slightly touching the wall. We recommend standing and make sure you are on a truly flat surface.
- 2. Trace your feet with a pencil to avoid leaving any serious markings on your feet/socks.
- 3. Measure the length of your feet from the edge until the top of your longest toe.
We recommend to add a few millimeters to your foot length that you have enough space for kick and glide. When you check the foot length (cm) in your sizing chart, if you are in between you should round up to the next size. If you now look for your shoe size in our size chart, you should round up. (e.g. from 24.7 cm to 25 cm)
