Amazing skates ! The size runs big if you wear a size 8 shoe buy a 7 . These are made so good and are comfortable!

Granddaughter loves these. Good quality and cute color. Lots of fun.

My daughter wanted Roller Skates for Christmas, so I bought these from Amazon. She loves them, They are very pretty. Mostly white with trim in really bright hot pink. the wheels are plastic so they could be used indoor or outdoor. The shoe strings are in the hot pink color too match the trim.They were a. better price than Wal-Mart. The shoe or upper of the skate is comfortable. Now, if she'll just start using them.

These are my first pair of new roller skates ever. Growing up, any skates I used were either borrowed or hand-me-downs. I am now teaching my son to skate and decided to spring for new skates for both of us. I received my skates today and immediately noted the wheels don't roll worth a hoot. I adjusted them so they roll freely and now there is some slight play in the wheels, but they seem to work well enough and don't feel wobbly. I also noted that the comfort of the boot changed with the wheel adjustment. NO, adjusting the wheels did not specifically change the boot, I'm simply saying that not fighting the wheels makes my foot sit in the boot more comfortably and break-in will not be torture as I feared prior to adjusting the wheels.As far as fit is concerned, my foot is on the wide end of normal and I immediately noted that I will want to wear thick athletic socks or install insoles.Overall, they'll do for now as my first pair, but I have ordered new indoor wheels and bearings. My 3 star rating of value for my money is optimistic, but only as long as the factory wheels and bearings hold up for outdoor use. My assessment of value will be greatly reduced if the bearings give out within a few uses - especially if the bearings in the factory wheels really cannot be replaced as stated in another comment.If you are an avid skater looking for a decent pair of skates, add at least $55-60 to the cost of these because that was the cost of the kit I ordered which included better quality bearings and wheels and that was at the low end of replacement cost. You'll want to upgrade one or both immediately.They are an upgrade from rental skates but will take some added investment to tweak out some better performance.Update:I received my new bearings and wheels and decided to try and remove the bearings from the old wheels. They popped right out and were easily replaced by the better quality (albeit not top of the line) bearings. Not sure what the discrepancy is with the reviewer who stated that the bearings cannot be replaced (different skate maybe?) but with better bearings my skates roll much better! Also would like to note that the indoor/outdoor wheels are lousy outdoors...except maybe on really smooth concrete. I took my son down the street to a local church's asphalt parking lot that I thought was newly paved. It was not as smooth as I'd hoped but not as bad as some I've seen. This was with the old bearings too, but the wheels made for an awfully rough ride. Therefore, I'd recommend keeping them for use as indoor wheels and get a set of good outdoor wheels if you plan on using them outside. I upgraded my rating to 4 stars because with minimal cost ($20) in upgrading the bearings they're a pretty decent pair of rink skates. Very soon, I'll order some bearings for my new indoor wheels so I can easily swap for the skating rink. I'd have saved some money if I ordered outdoor wheels in my $55 kit but I knew I'd be too impatient to wait until they arrived before I made a trial run. You could spend more money on better quality skates, but I'd only recommend that if you are very knowledgeable about skating and know exactly what you want. I have responsibilities, like feeding my kids - so a different pair of skates for every occasion is not feasible. Plan to upgrade the bearings and if you want to skate in multiple places (indoors/outdoors on asphalt, gravel or whatever) get a second set of wheels and bearings designed for that purpose and swap to whichever wheels you need when you go.

Love the skates! I haven't roller skated in many years. I bought these to go skating with my grandkids.

I purchased these skates for my fiancée because she really wanted to get into skating with me. She was very happy when these came and thought they were gorgeous. They shipped and landed on our doorstep right on time. The shipping and handling process was flawless.She immediately tried them on and they fit like a glove. I highly advise using the sizing chart because I purchased her a size 6 after I used the chart. She normally wears a 7 -7.5. The quality seems to be great, and has held up since the purchase. We go to the rink once a week.Once we received them, I immediately changed out the bearings. I tried spinning the stock ones and the wheel rotated just one time. So if you want to make sure you have some speed, you may want to change them out.Overall, she loves the way they look, feel and roll (after the bearing swap.)

Purchased May 6, 2022. Thought they were a good price for quality at ~$50. My daughter has only used them indoors. Maybe 8 or 10 times since purchase (school roller-skating nights). First use, toe stopper came off while skating. She saved the piece and my husband fixed it. March 22, 2024 a wheel broke off. Techs at venue fixed (needed a bearing) for $30. Maybe I should have spent more.

Very comfortbale and cute!! I say order one size down in size
