What's the Big EDEA
Who is Edea?
Edea was founded by Sabrina Merlo, the daughter of Antonio Merlo and Caterina Rizzo, and the niece of Armando Rizzo, who had founded Risport in 1972.
After two years of intensive research and development and thanks to the support of her family and the experts the first boots hit the ice on 02/02/02.
Research, development and production are entirely based in Italy and focused only on figure-skating boots (both ice and rollers).
Sabrin Merlo says ‘New materials, technology and thinking means the impossible is just an idea away. This constant search for perfection means we stay ahead of the ordinary. At Edea we concentrate on the future so you can focus on performance. We want your dreams to come real.’
