I got these to see if skating is a hobby I'll stick with before investing in a higher-end pair of skates.There are a few options at this price point and some of them are probably low-quality junk, but I'm really pleasantly surprised with how well these are made for the price.Are they as good as the $300 skates? No. But theyre comfortable and they roll well and they're working well for me as a beginner.What I like:-The boot part is well padded and is really comfortable.-I ordered according to the size chart and I think they definitely fit true to size. There are some reviews that say to size down or up, so maybe it depends on what batch you get.-The wheels feel really nice. Soft enough for outdoor use. I had to adjust the tightness a bit out of the box, but the tool is included.Cons:-The toe stop isn't adjustable. It's more of a harder plastic than rubber. It will probably get chewed up with regular use.-the trucks/frame of the skate is plastic rather than metal.Overall I'm happy with the value at this price point and it's a good fit for beginners looking to skate indoors or outside!Super comfortable and definitely worth the money!Comfortable and true to size !! Very nice !!I take the kids skating every Sunday. These skates are really smooth! They roll perfect. Make sure you tighten the screws so you won’t all and your skates fall apart. One of the screws came off from the bottom and the wheels.I fell in love with these skates. When you first look at them, they are stylish and cute. Once I tried them on, they fit perfectly (true to size). They look like they are well made and I did not see anything wrong with the design, wheels, etc. Once I started skating around, I was gliding with ease. The wheels are nice and rotate beautifully. The only negative thing I could say was that I'm not too crazy about the stopper. It almost felt like it was plastic and didn't really glide to stop me. It was a choppy stop. All of my previous skates that I've owned, the stopper felt more rubbery and glided to a stop instead of being choppy and hard to stop. It's not too bad since I don't plan on speed skating. I just skate leisurely around so I can stop quick enough. I've only skated indoors thus far, but I will take these outdoors soon. Overall, I really do like these skates and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a good pair.I love themSo far these have held up for awhile. I'm an outdoor skater, so had to replace the wheels after a few months. All in all a great skate especially for beginners.Update: It is has been a year, still a great skate..I have gotten into alot of tricks and turns now and am just replacing the skates due to thinking the plastic truck has warped slightly. Once again I use outsoors...this would probably last quite longer as Rink skates.I love these skates!! They are the perfect fit. I was able to glide so easily in them. I received alot of compliments every one liked the fact they they light up. The black material feels like a nice boot or high top tennis shoe. They look like they will last a long time
