It's finally here! We've managed to find a space for both stock and fitting!
The Fitting Shop, located to the North West of Cambridge city, is easy to get to from any direction.
All of our stock is on site - this means when you come to visit us, a fitting may automatically include a chance to try on the skates/kit you're interested in*, within the same sitting.
* While stock is on site, we cannot carry more than we can store - so in some cases a fitting may still require a return visit.
Due to my services being provided over the entire Cambridge area, with the Workshop and some fitting appointments being situated inside Cambridge Ice Arena, currently The Fitting Shop is open by appointment only. We will be making an appointment booking system available in due course, but in the meantime please contact me to set up an appointment!
Boots, blades, skates and accessories for both Figure Skating and Ice Hockey.
We stock: Edea, Risport, Graf, Jackson, CCM, Warrior, Winwell, Sherwood, Blue Sports and more!

I hate talking about myself - fortunately for me, my customers speak for me.
When we met Richard, he immediately put us at ease. He’s a genuinely lovely, friendly, and kind man who makes you feel comfortable and clearly takes great pride in his work. Drawing on his background in engineering and his passion for skating, he offers a truly bespoke service — one rooted in a deep understanding of the dynamics between foot, boot and blade.
We had initially purchased our boots from a shop in London but encountered ongoing issues: the wrong size and shape were recommended, the blades were poorly sharpened (a few degrees off), and we weren’t even provided with the additional screws that should have been included. When we sought adjustments, our concerns were dismissed as trivial.
Richard, by contrast, was able to resolve every problem we had, including several we hadn’t even noticed ourselves. He offered sound advice and insightful recommendations and genuinely took the time to educate us during the appointment. His expertise and approachable manner makes him ideal for skaters of all levels, from beginners to professionals. We learned so much from him in just one visit and wouldn’t hesitate to travel a considerable distance just to see him again — he’s absolutely worth it. Richard is exceptional at what he does, and we’ll absolutely be returning to him from now on!
All the best and see you soon!
