Skate Soakers/Skate Guards

The Original Sublimated Skate Soakers/Skate Guards – Built to Perform

Junkyard Athletic is proud to manufacture THE ORIGINAL sublimated skate soakers/skate guards!

Since 2008, we’ve continuously improved our designs, refining fabrics, materials, and sewing techniques to deliver the best product possible. The skate soakers we made in our first year are nowhere near the soakers/guards we manufacture today.

Evolving with the Game – The Birth of HEAVY-DUTY Skate Soakers/Guards

When we first started making skate soakers/guards, they were no different from other products on the market. At the time, walking in your skates while wearing soakers/guards wasn’t common—they were simply designed to protect the blades during storage.

As the game evolved, so did player habits. Walking in soakers/guards became more frequent, creating the need for greater durability and reinforcement. In response, we didn’t just improve our existing product—we expanded our lineup. While continuing to offer our trusted STANDARD skate soakers/guards, we also developed our HEAVY-DUTY version, built specifically to withstand the wear and tear of walking while still providing superior blade protection and custom style.

Important Warranty Notice

We stand behind the quality of our products and warranty against any manufacturing defects. However, we do not warranty skate soakers/guards that have been cut through any part of the product, as skate blades are incredibly sharp and can damage even the most durable materials.

Choose the right soaker/guard for your needs and experience the original in custom skate protection!

STANDARD vs. HEAVY-DUTY – Which Skate Soaker/Guard is Right for You?

At Junkyard Athletic, we offer two levels of skate soakers/guards to match your needs—whether you’re looking for everyday blade protection or something built to handle extra wear and tear.

STANDARD – Everyday Protection & Flexibility

HEAVY-DUTY – Maximum Durability & Reinforcement 

Key Features of ALL Our Skate Soakers/Skate Guards: 

SOAKER SIZING
Our soaker sizing is based on the runner size of your skate.  Turn your skate upside down and on the holder part of the skate (the plastic holder that the steel runner goes into), there will be a three digit number.  That is the holder/runner size.

Check the chart below for the runner size and its suggested soaker/guard size.  If two sizes are shown, then they will both fit.  It will be a matter of how tight or loose you want the soaker to fit.
