I know salomon don't do parts for rollerblades anymore, but does anyone have a suggestion for replacing the buckles on my Salomon tr-6?
Thx

I'd check out the other buckles on the site for most similar and then jsut rivet a new buckle set on there. Or...you can get new skates!! :)

Can't get new skates because I am in Darwin Australia, and we do not have a skate shop :(
And these skates fit me perfectly (i think the memory foam is the reason behind this). I went thru a series of skates that did not fit me well, and suffered blisters etc.
I was looking for your expertise in finding a compatible buckle that I can rivet on.

Problem is that Salomon is not distributed in the USA any longer. I am very limited. The skate is so old that I can't compare myself with anything we have, so I believe that your having the skate and being able to see what is available online, your judgement would better than mine.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

Would it help if I posted some pics of the rivets that hold the buckle in place, and the strap (ladder?). I can take the pics alonsgide a digital caliper that you can use to help me identify a compatible buckle.
Thanks for responses BTW.
