CHICAGO Bullet Speed Roller Skate for Men, 62mm Urethane Wheels, ABEC-1 Bearings, Lace-Up Vinyl Boot, Black – Indoor/Outdoor Racing Skates

Great skates for rink skating, this is the second pair I've bought. My first pair lasted four years, and even survived a few bouts of outdoor skating.If you're looking for skates that roll, are lightweight, and aren't gonna get all rickety on you, these are them. They are well constructed and durable and the wheels are good for indoors. Everything is straight and tight on arrival. These skates work for spins/bunny hops but they are NOT trick skates. These are for no-frills skaters, the minimal amount you can achieve with the most enjoyment, for learners and casual skaters.CONS: The brakes (toe stops) are very hard, maybe good for outdoors on asphalt but not grippy enough for indoors, so plan on replacing them with other (bolt on) toe stops. The bearings aren't awful, but as a general rule they should be replaced with something else no matter what wheels you're on. If you want to skate outside, you will want softer/larger wheels. I have been able to skate outside on what they come with, but the cracks and textures will really mess you up.GENERAL STARTERS RULES:With every new pair of skates (and preferably before you put them on every time) adjustments need to be made. Listen very carefully: NEED. You need to tighten everything down firmly before you get started. Dont tighten the ones with the rubber cushions that attach to the skates much, if you tighten it much more then you'll ruin the cushion. Once the wheels and toe stop and the little nuts on the boot are tight, you want to go to each wheel and loosen it a quarter turn (90°) or less and spin the wheel, once the wheel spins freely and sustains for a little bit then its loose enough. If your wheel slides/rattles on the pole holding it (any more than just a tiny tiny bit of wiggle room) then you need to tighten it down all the way and start again.

super excited about these! My son is 9 & wears a shoe size 6, I bought these in a size 6 & they fit him perfect! He just learned to skate using some old skates that were too small for him & didn't roll very good, so he is super happy to have a pair that fits & rolls amazingly. I squeezed my foot into them & they roll nice & smooth. We use them for outdoor only as we have no rinks here. He skated through the neighborhood & really liked everything about these skates. They also look really nice! Jet black with white stoppers. Update... The next day my daughters skates arrived. She wears a ladies size 7-7 1/2 shoe. I bought her the size 7 & they fit great. They also fit me perfect & I wear a womens size 8 shoe. We are super happy with these skates! Awesome purchase!

I’ve been skating since I was a kid, now 33. I’ve had multiple style skates. Speed skates are my favorite. My last pair the wheels actually grip the skating rink floor giving me more control, but these wheels are kind of slippery and they make me slide. I send skating at Cascade on Wednesday night and almost fell because of it. Great skate but you may want to replace the wheels if you’re used to using these kinds of skates.

I love my skates !!

These have gone up in price since I've purchased them a couple weeks ago so must be a hot item! I purchased size 6 since I'm a size 7 women but they are a little too loose on me so i may exchange for size down. Keep in mind these are speed skates so the wheels are wider than your standard.

My son wore this skates around the house for 2 days after getting them. He absolutely loves them. They are so comfortable and easy to skate in that it has actually improved his skating skills compared to the rental skates

The boot is comfortable enough and fit great with my own insoles. I feel like this skate would be amazing if the stopper weren't so obsolete. Not to mention, I went remove the stoppers so I could install the toe protectors, and one screw would not loosen up. Come to find out, it was cross-threaded AND the screws used to secure the stoppers were actually different than each other. I have to try to find another stopper that works for these skates 😮‍💨 AND find a bolts that will fit them perfectly.

I used these skates a few years back in high school, had to buy another pair. Got here a day early and I was so excited !!! I got a size 6 (men’s) and I wear a 7.5 women’s and they fits perfectly.
