Impala Lightspeed Inline Skate - Black

It has been 17 years or so since I did inline skating. I decided to try to get back into it as a fun way to get some much needed exercise. In searching for good inline skates for beginners (as I consider myself a beginner again after not skating for so long), I came across these and was immediately drawn to their look. I also read that these are excellent beginner's skates. Now, I am a bigger woman (approx. 240lbs) and I have wide calves and ankles. Therefore, I was worried that I would not be able to latch the top ratchet strap on these. Upon receiving the skates, I was pleasantly surprised at how well they fit and I had no problem with the straps! Because the wheels are a smaller 70mm and are soft/gummy, these skates offer a lot more stability which is essential for beginners by helping them to stay upright and gain more confidence. The boots also provide very good support and the padded liners are quite comfortable. Finally, these skates just look great! I tried them out at the local skating rink and they rode smoothly. The boots are true to size and fit well. I did not get any blisters when skating (which I am prone to getting with new shoes, etc.). The only soreness I experienced in my feet and ankles was purely due to my lack of fitness (which I hope to change by skating more often)! Needless to say, these skates have definitely re-awakened my joy of inline skating!

These rollerblade are great. Comfortable for long periods of time. Fits well. Wheels and bearings are good but they’re not high end either. You can go pretty fast for what they are but if you want real speed and extra smooth ride, you’ll want to upgrade the wheels and bearings. The black variant is what we got and they look clean with a good design. Easy to put on and take off. For the price, this is a great buy without having to speed way more for the real high end rollerblades. Definitely recommend.

Very high quality. If you are worried about them falling apart on you don’t be, these blades are super sturdy. It comes with a brake you can install and it was a fairly easy task. Overall fun inline skates i recommend for beginners like myself

Wheel alignment was defective had to send the skates back

Los compré para mi novio pedí talla 9, según esto es la talla de USA, sin embargo para hombres viene reducido dos tallas, por lo que era 9 para mujeres y 7 para hombres, para que lo consideren al pedir.Saludos.

I bought these for my 11 year old daughter and she pretty much lives in them! She wears aSize 7 1/2 in women’s but needed the 8 for comfort.

Don’t listen to other skaters who claim these aren’t quality. It’s not true. Good quality boot, they are not for advanced aggressive skating, speed skating, or crazy tricks, but they are well made for someone starting out and go fast for what they are. They do run big though, I had to return original pair after trying and had to size down one size smaller than my shoe size!

The media could not be loaded. Easy to use for beginners. Super durable materials too.
