Description
The BOTAS Cindy is a white leather figure skate for women and girls, made in the Czech Republic and listed in Botas’s Sport line. Botas builds it for active figure skaters and for skaters starting to compete: a reinforced, waterproof-finished leather boot on a brown plastic sole, with the blades already mounted.
Key details
- Upper: thick coated leather with a waterproof finish, built up with Botas’s LTT (Layers Thermo Technology) construction — bonded layers that keep the shell tough and impact-resistant without making it stiff. Gold-tone Cindy lettering on the outer quarter, a gold botas logo on the tongue and clusters of vent holes on the quarter and tongue.
- Fit and padding: Botas’s PAS-FIT anatomic support shapes the tongue, heel and ankle, with soft internal padding that beds in around the foot; a soft elastic Stretchy Cuff wraps the top of the calf.
- Lining: laminated fabric lining, with an anatomically shaped, textile-lined tongue over the laces.
- Lacing: a full row of metal eyelets under four antique-brass hooks a side, so the ankle can be tightened separately from the foot.
- Sole: solid, hard-wearing brown plastic with a stacked-look heel and an inset metal botas nameplate; the blade plates are screwed to it.
- Blades: steel Botas figure blades with a toe pick, carrying the European TÜV GS certificate — the TÜV mark is etched into the steel near the heel.
- Colour: white boot, brown sole and heel; one medium width.
Where the Cindy sits in the Botas range
- Cindy (this page) — coated leather with LTT reinforcement and an elastic cuff at the calf; adult sizes only, US 4.5 to 13.
- Dagmar and Diana — leather boots on the same brown plastic sole, fitted with Botas Sabrina blades; both run down into youth sizes.
- Regina — a synthetic upper rather than leather, on Botas Nicole Ni blades.
- Cezar — the men’s and boys’ skate built the same way, in black.
Fit and sizing
Botas builds its figure skates for a medium-width foot only, and sizes them by foot length rather than by shoe size — the label inside each boot prints the length in millimetres alongside the EU and US sizes. Measure your longer foot and read the row below. If you fall between two sizes, Botas advises taking the bigger one; if your foot is wide, Botas recommends looking at another brand.
| US size | Foot length, in (mm) | EU size |
|---|---|---|
| 4.5 | 8⅝ (220) | 35 |
| 5 | 8⅞ (225) | 36 |
| 5.5 | 9 (230) | 37 |
| 6.5 | 9½ (240) | 38 |
| 7.5 | 9⅞ (250) | 39 |
| 8 | 10 (255) | 40 |
| 8.5 | 10¼ (260) | 41 |
| 9.5 | 10⅝ (270) | 42 |
| 10 | 11 (280) | 43 |
| 11 | 11⅜ (290) | 45 |
| 12 | 11⅝ (295) | 46 |
| 13 | 11¾ (300) | 47 |
The run is unbroken from US 4.5 to US 13 — every size in the table exists on this listing, and the selector shows which are in stock. Botas steps the Cindy in EU sizes, so US 6, 7 and 9 are not part of the run; US 10.5 (EU 44) is the one size on the Botas women’s chart that this listing does not carry. There are no youth sizes here; for smaller feet the Botas Dagmar starts at youth 12.5. Full conversions are on the Botas sizing chart.
What’s included and how to care for them
A complete skate: Cindy boots with the blades already mounted, ready to sharpen and skate. Botas asks that you clean the boots with water only after use — no detergents — lift the insoles out and let everything dry at room temperature, away from radiators and other heat sources.
These Botas Cindy figure skates sit in our Women’s Figure Skates and Girls’ Figure Skates collections, and among our Recreational Ice Skates.
