My mom remembers union hardware roller skates. I don't. Does anyone have any history on them. My mom has her old skates but no date. She said she thinks they were wooden first. Union hardware in torrigton conn does not exist anymore. History, pictures or background would be appreciated.
Does anyone remember metal skates. I'm trying to explain to my son what I used to wear. Union Hardware?
go to www.history.com and look up the type of skates or the origin of roller skates and follow the instructions.
Happy New Year
Reply:Metal skates with metal wheels that attached to your shoes using a skate key.
Reply:I was trying to explain metal skates to my son yesterday. He thought I was kidding. They did fit well on the saddle shoes. They were fun too.
Reply:Sorry I can't help you with the history but Thanks for the memory jog,Mine fit just perfect on my black and white saddle-oxfords and I always carried my key.
