RiedellSkates - Dart Ombré - Quad Roller Speed Skate

When I first got a look at the shape of my skates I was a little concerned with how narrow the toe of the skate was. However, when I tried them on and used them at the skating rink my concern went away. They felt comfortable and did not make the toes of my feet hurt afterwards. These skates are great and I am glad that I found them. Thank you,.

The media could not be loaded.  I really like the colors way more then I thought I would! Never been the pink waring gal, but thought I'd go for alittle something different then my usual. Im glad I did. This pink/purple just pops!The measurements online was extremely helpful in finding the right size skate for me. I usually ware a 8 or 8.5 wide and it was suggested I get a 7. So I did and spot on!These skates are really comfortable and feel amazing. I'm breaking them in as the wheels are new and very slippery (as to be expected). So I will update as I spend time using them.Shipping for me was off the charts. I got them in 6 days! From the time of purchase! Amazing 👏! It was supposed to be 2-2.5 weeks and most reviews said they got their skates 2-5 days early. I got mine 1.5 weeks earlier! Thanks a million!

My 8 year old loves these skates. She has had them for months and they are still in amazing shape.

These skates, ONCE CORRECTLY ADJUSTED, roll really well. It is hard to find a skate for a child that actually really roll like an adult skate. These actually have real normal sized bearings and wheels. They look good. They are comfortable. The only bad thing I can find about them is that they are really heavy, about 3 pounds per skate. In comparison these are much heavier than most adult skates.

My son loves these

I used to roller skate back in the day and in an effort to try to be more active upon reaching middle age, decided to try the experts advice that the easiest way to find success with a fitness program is to partake in activities that you like. I was a rink rat back in the 80s. Eventually got a pair of rollerblades that got some minimal use over the years but my old quad skates did not survive. Well, actually they were fine but after having two kids, my feet never fit them right again. How could they after almost 30 years! So I did a lot of research before settling on this as a replacement. I know this is meant for derby and not the same type of artistic boot that I had grown up using but wanted to give it a try and could not resist the fun colors. I love it but am still getting used to it. The brake sits a bit low and I know I can adjust them. The "shoe" part fits pretty comfortably, just the slightest tad big, but I did not want to go down another size. Can probably wear thicker socks. Can't quite pull the laces tight enough as I would like but the velcro closure makes up for that. There is no ankle support so I feel I had to work a lot harder in the back calf muscles to stay upright and moving. I've been out in them twice and after a few laps, start to get my confidence back. I can't quite describe if they are slick enough or not slick enough. On the one hand, first steps out I feel that it is quite slick but then after many laps and I want to pick up speed, I feel that I can't quite get any faster and I don't know if that is some type of subconscious safety mechanism kicking in to keep me safe or as if I've reached max speed on the wheels. Again I'm not describing this well and I have a feeling using some tools to adjust could very well do the trick. I don't care how old I am, I'm having fun again!

Just a bit narrow around my foot but I'm sure will be fine after they are broke in.

Love the color! Love the feel! These are super comfortable! But are really fast. Experienced skaters I would say! They are true to size. Used the size chart to help and was perfect!

Inconfortables pour mes pieds. Cependant, ce sont d'excellents patins.

Daughter uses them for derby skates. They work great!
