Chorus

I am on my second pair of chorus boots- I love them! It wasn’t painful or a long journey to break them in and they are so comfortable. Down side- i can’t seem to get more than a year out of them. I have all my single jumps and i skate 3x a week.

I’ve had these boots for a week now and I absolutely love them. I wish I had gone for Edea boots when I went to get my first pair of skates back in 2007 instead of Risport. I feel like I would be still competing if I had. I am now skating as an adult skater but not doing competitions.

For me the C width is perfect for my ankle and arch, a bit tight in the toe box but after a few sessions of intensive use, they fit like a glove. That said the break in time was minimal. I didn’t get blisters whatsoever. Risport was guaranteed to give me those.

I get the amount of support I need during jumps as well as the required height. I’ve been told I jump high enough to do doubles. Though I’ve always been a high jumper having transitioned from 8 years of gymnastics before switching to figure skating at the age of 12.

i got these when i had my axel and was working on doubles and had them for 1.5 years. i landed all my doubles in these! would totally recommend these because of their short break in time and comfort. to kids who have one or two doubles and for more heavy jumpers who are working on doubles.

I got my Chorus boots when I was working on my single loop and flip. I have had them for nearly 3 years now. They are quite broken down, but that’s due to use. They are so comfortable and were from the beginning. I would recommend them for people doing singles, I don’t think it will have support for doubles.

I had these on a pair of inline figure skates, but they were not supportive enough for what I needed (adult skater, working on doubles). Edeas in general are supposed to be comfy and easy to break in, which they were due to the soft padding on the inside of the skate. However, this padding made them feel too loose at the ankle for my liking. I know that other people like this ankle flexibility and the fact that there is no break in time, but to me it felt like I had no stability at all, especially trying jumps above axel.
To be honest, I think they are a good boot for the right person (lighter skater/child learning doubles or adult skater learning singles) but for my skating needs, they simply weren’t supportive enough. I got a crease in the side of my landing boot very early on (after only about a month) so had to switch.

These fit in the shop, but after a couple of skate sessions, my feet started sliding around & my heels lifted up & down. I did like the low cut back & the higher heel, but they were just too long & wide. I was able to sell them, but lost $$$. I also did not care for the cockamamie lacing & the ridiculously loose ankle.

I switched to Chorus from Overtures with one year skating experience. I think the boot is good but just didn’t fit me right. I had a hard time getting them tight enough- I felt like my ankle did not have enough support if I didn’t land my flips in a perfect position. While I didn’t get them tight enough at my ankles, I got bruises on the top of my foot. I had to get them stretched to make fit for a bone that’s sticking out a bit in my ankle but the techs couldn’t get it completely fixed so I ended up changing after one year. I think they’re still good for someone with a different shape of foot

I am a 5’4″ 125 lbs adult skater with one year of experience, working on single jumps and basic spins. I’ve had my Chorus boots for almost half a year now and I can confidently say they were the right choice for me. Being Edea, they are lightweight and took me no time to break in. The tongue and ankle support is very comfortable, I feel like I have the right balance of stability and flexibility. Make sure you go to a pro shop and get properly fitted – for me, moving up to a B width made such a surprising difference. They are easy to clean and have resisted most damage from falls, scrapes, nicks, etc. Honestly, I love them so much, I can’t really imagine needing any other boot.

A bit about me and my skating:
I’m a 23 year old adult skater with quite a few years of experience but not too many skate trials under my belt. I started skating at 11, but due to the cost of the sport I only had about an hour of ice time per week until I was 19. I took three and a half years off during college and picked skating up again at 22. Because I haven’t skated consistently or from a young enough age to where I had several growth spurts, I haven’t broken down too many skates. I had about 2-3 pairs of Reidells, which I had no issues with as a beginner, got into Edea Choruses as a teen, and three months ago switched to Edea Concertos. I have consistent doubles through double loop and am working on double flip/lutz. I worked through consistent double sals and double toes with my choruses.

A bit about the skates:
I think they were great for what I needed. These skates are rated through doubles, meaning that’s the most a skater should do in them. I’m an adult so I think that my fairly athletic (not prepubescent) build combined with my consistent practice of axels, double sals, double toes, as well as attempted double loops and flips took a strain on these skates and caused them to break down a little earlier than they might for a kid. The price is reasonable and I think if you’re a kid trying to get consistent doubles or an adult doing singles through axel—this could be your boot! Comfortable and supportive for someone who is definitely committed to learning to skate.
