Saudi Arabia
Roller Skating and Inline Skating in Saudi Arabia.
Specialist Roller Skate Shops in Saudi Arabia are non-existent as far as we can tell. There seems to be some skateboard shops and general sports shops scattered around, but nothing that you could regard as having a wide range of choice or specialist inline skate or rollerskate brands. Surprising really, considering the healthy scene of inline skaters, rollerbladers and roller skaters that we come into contact with weekly here at the shop
Pop-up rollerskating rinks are gaining more popularity and we recently helped out with a couple of large installations across two malls in Riyadh.
Be sure to check out Alula On Wheels, which is an open Air Rink in the Al Jadidah Arts District which started as a pop-up.
We've had a great relationship with skaters in Saudi over the years. Our specialist range of skates appeals to a demographic of skaters who want to push their skating and equipment to the next stage, as well as offering the largest range of reputable-but-affordable models of skate. The Saudi authorities are pretty laid back with products being imported, so it's easy to get a pair of skates delivered to Saudi Arabia from Loco HQ in the UK.

Delivery and extra costs when you buy skates from outside of the Saudi...
Packages usually arrive in around 3 business days and the import taxes and delivery costs are very reasonable. You can choose to pay any duties, taxes and fees at checkout when shopping on Loco. You'll actually find that each product listed on our site is a little cheaper if you are in Saudi (compared to if you were browsing from the UK), this is because we build in a 10% (approx) co-efficient into our pricing to offset some of the import costs that are charged on the order
As an example, have a look at the final 'door-to-door' pricing associated with one of our best selling products...
