A Legacy of Excellence
In 1696, King Charles II became fascinated with ice skating and requested John Wilson, a noted toolmaker of that era, make a pair of skate blades for him—and the world of ice skating has not been the same since.
The reputation of John Wilson grew, and in 1841, Queen Victoria instructed the company to make Prince Albert and her a pair of ice skates. Today, John Wilson continues to be the standard of excellence for skaters worldwide, offering an unsurpassed English elegance.
