Derby City Skates - Susan thanks again for all your help love my new skates Tony (Miami) - Skate Shops Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

So as a very new skater I was doing research on local spots to skate and found Derby City. I had no idea this place was .4 miles from our home! Not only do we live in walking distance but it's the only stand alone skate shop in the entire southeast. The owner, Susan, is a skater and former derby girl. She is incredibly knowledgeable and very helpful with tips and tricks for newbies like myself. I'm kicking myself for not finding this sooner and getting my first pair of skates from her but I let her know with upcoming birthdays and what not I will certainly be a returning customer! I have a lot to learn on this skating journey and I'm fortunate to have this shop close by along the way. Her phone was ringing off the hook while I was visiting so it's clear skating has exploded in the time of COVID. If you've thought about trying out skating or you used to skate and want to get back into it swing by and chat with Susan. She has loads of gorgeous skates, wheels, gear, etc. I look forward to being decked out in the shop's merch in the year to come. read more

Derby City Skates - Skate Shops Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

What a great shop! My daughter has been a casual roller skater for a few years, but of course during the pandemic, had a lot more time, so she spent a lot of time skating. Her old skates just didn't cut it any longer. We searched high and low and skates were just nowhere to be found! So many places had things on back order for months! We found the perfect skates, but couldn't find them anywhere. Until we discovered Derby City! They were flying off the shelves, but we made the trip to the storefront after Christmas and they had a huge order come in! My daughter was able to try on the skates, made sure she got the correct fit and tips on how to keep them up. They have lots of extras like tools and bags, etc, but nothing was pushed on us. I felt like we got answers to all of our questions, and we left happy. Very accommodating and helpful! Before we arrived the owner text us photos of some skates they had in stock, so we could see before we made the trip. She spent a good amount of time on the phone with me so I was comfortable knowing they had stock and options for my daughter. They are a small business, so they were also busy shipping out orders while we were there. Very nice people. We will definitely go back to them for all of our skate needs! read more

I have been to DCS as a brand new skater and as an intermediate skater and never felt lost or unsure when making a purchase. They are so helpful and nice and always guide you the right direction without worrying about price or how much money they can make from you. It's always genuine help! They carry everything you need to skate and have a lot of options. I love it here!!! read more

See all

Yes, I'm old school. I cannot order everything online... roller skates is one of those things. I need to talk to someone, I need to try things on. This is where I needed to go! The owner confirmed yes, she deals with lots of unhappy online skate shoppers. She was very patient with me, having me try on all sorts of styles, brands, fits in roller skates. In the end what I choose wasn't even close to what I thought I'd want based on looking online. My skates fit perfectly and I love them! The place is a gem of skate supplies and knowledge. Lots of cute accessories in here besides skates. Once you come in, it's like you've made friends. Everyone was great, even the customers that stopped in gave great advice to me while debating on which skates to go with. read more

Google has the hours wrong, they are closed on Mondays. However the owner was close by and ran right over. Seriously awesome customer service. She helped me determine the skate for me and even helped me with how to stop. With the pandemic everywhere has been sold out of skate gear but she had a pretty good selection. There is different price ranges and asthetics, go checked them out!!! read more

Derby City Skates - The skates, helmet, knee pads, elbow pads and wrist guards I got from Derby City Skates! Love them!!! Great quality, perfect fit! - Skate Shops Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

Absolutely stellar customer service! The owner of Derby City Skates really went above and beyond to make sure that I was able to get what I needed for my skates when I was in town. Coming from a small town, it's hard to find skate supplies and I was super excited to discover that there is a skate store in Winston-Salem. I cannot recommend Derby City enough and I will continue to purchase products from them in the future! read more

I bought skates to skate with my grandkids, this is a perfect place to buy. Have a choice and be supportive of my hobby.
