Questions & Answers

I am dressed in a size 5 for children. If I'm a 5 in the air force and can wear a 5, is it okay if I get a men's 5?

If your foot is still growing or you like to skate with thicker socks, you might want to go with a size 6.

Are these something you'd recommend?

It is up to the skater to decide. This is an excellent choice for frequent session skaters or beginning jam skaters; the wheels are for indoor skating, but you could replace them with something softer if you skate outside.

Is it preferable to purchase these via the internet?

They were cheaper on Amazon than at our local roller rink, and I bought them for my son because they didn't have his size there. I'm not sure about the free service at the roller rink because my son knows all of the guys up there and they help him with whatever he needs. Except for lubricating the bearings, there isn't much you can do to maintain them.

When I got my skates, I noticed that one of the bushings was cracked. Is there supposed to be a gap between the toes as well?

I'd return them if they weren't defective. I'm not sure where the chasm is.

The quality is good, but there are a few parts that aren't that great
3/5

Update: One of the wheel hubs has snapped. Isn't that fine? Isn't it true that they're justified? I've been attempting to contact VNLA for the past two weeks with no success. Before making a purchase, I would contact them first. My Reidell Ombres, my starter skates, broke a truck, so I called Reidell and got a replacement in three days. My jams cost half as much as these. come on! Okay, here's the good and the bad for me. The patent leather, while attractive, is easily scuffable. It's my fault, but I'm still getting used to plugs instead of stoppers, and I've already scuffed the patent on one toe. The plate and trucks are both nylon, so they won't be as strong as aluminum trucks, but they should last a long time. On the plus side, the wheels feel nice and grippy even with the higher 95 rating, so you won't have to upgrade those. The wheels were also slightly overtightened, but once adjusted, the bearings felt as good as, if not better than, the roller bones I'd been running on my Riedells. At this price point, the overall build quality is excellent, and the leather boots are of A1 quality in my opinion. Will you be able to upgrade to better trucks and plates in the future? Time will tell how they perform when it comes to rhythm dance skating.

I was let down
3/5

For my 11-year-old's birthday present, I bought a pair of skates. The size was too big, so I returned it after purchasing the correct size, and the refund process took an eternity. I had to contact Skate Direct at least three times before I got my refund. I was let down.

Skates that are incredible
5/5

I've never had better skates in my life. These were a little shaky at first, but it turned out that I had over-tightened the wheels and trucks. After obtaining assistance with their adjustment. From the age of seven until now, 35 years later, it felt as if I had been skating. I used to skate all the time, but I never wore low or 3/4 skates. Between low and 3/4 skates, these are the next best thing. They're incredibly agile, which I admire.

A good skate for a reasonable price
5/5

I know this is a "jam" style skate, but it also works well as a rhythm skate. I'm 5' 7" and weigh around 140 pounds, and the wheels had plenty of grip to do pretty much anything you needed them to do on a hardwood floor. They're extremely comfortable right out of the box, and I'm sure they'll only get better with time.

Some of the most expensive skates on the market! These are some of the most high-quality skates available
5/5

They only necessitate a small amount of break-in time. BEFORE SKATING, USE A WRENCH OR A SKATE TOOL TO TIGHTEN THEM UP AT THE BOTTOM! They'll be ready to go once you've done that. These skates are the most comfortable I've ever worn. They are both comfortable and fashionable.

Skates made by VNLA
5/5

These are INCREDIBLY well-fitting. I went with a men's size 10! My wheel bearings keep me rolling smoothly and quickly! They also appear to be fantastic! The only thing I don't like about them is that the back of the skates rubs my leg, so I have to wear double socks to keep them from rubbing my skin! Apart from that, they are fantastic!.

Skates of excellent quality
5/5

This is my son's first pair of skates, and he absolutely adores them. I recommend getting the toe guards because the second time he wore them, he scuffed up the toe of his boot.

Nice!
5/5

Excellent skates that fit well. For my monstrous ankles, I need to break in the ankle area. Overall, these skates are fantastic!.
