I repair a lot skates with rivets that are rusted out. I answer the same question over and over. Why do they rust out? The key is storage. Skates should be stored upside down or hung, ideally with foot bed removed. This is a locker I built my son more than 10 years ago. Although it looks like a mess it has the ability to hang his skates. Up until recently when he took his gear to school his rivets were never rusted. When he came home for fall break I built another one for him to take to school with him. Anyone in need to have a similar locker built can reach out. Lockers similar to one shown unfinished $200 each plus tax and shipping. Custom lockers priced based on request.
