Chicago Bullet Men's Speed Roller Skate - Black

Finally got to use these. I guess you get what you pay for.Now I would call myself a beginner to intermediate indoor skater. I used these exactly 1 time before they fell apart...literally (see picture). I had finally gotten everything cleaned up and lubricated and took these skates to the rink for the first time today. I made it about 2 hours of very mild to moderate skating; no crazy turning, jumping, or tricks at all, just around in a circle. I was coming out of a turn when the wheel just fell off. On closer inspection I found that the one of the external bearings of my outside foot simply was destroyed, and the wheel had ripped over the external nut holding it in place! Frankly I'm lucky not to have broken my ankle. Not happy about this purchase. It lasted maybe 2 hours of pretty mild skating. Now I have to shop for bearings to replace these and maybe even a new plate if it as bent it seems, because I'm outside of the return window. Be careful of this purchase. Pay a little more for better quality.

I purchased these skates for myself. I'm a 48 yr old female getting back into roller skating. These mens skates were very comfortable. I wear a size 9.5 to 10 in Women's shoes. I ordered a size 9 Mens based on the chart recommendation but could have ordered the 8.5. I opted to keep the 9 and I wear a thick sock to accommodate the small difference.These skates are very comfortable and were extremely smooth skating inside of my house. Once I got outside I felt Everything on the road...the Wheels on these skates are horrible for outdoors (which I read in previous posts). In the pic, the hard original wheels on top and the bottom wheel are my new ones). I purchased a Pair of Miami Boardwalk Outside Wheels along with Rollerbones Bearings and OMG what an extreme difference that change made for outside skating!! I felt like I was rolling on silk. A Fantastic addition to these sturdy Skates!! As you can see I also changed my Laces...basically because I'm a girly girl so I needed them to match my new wheels. ;-)The only other thing I can add is if you are a newbie or getting back into roller skating (like myself) you will Definitely NEED another Toe Stop. The one that comes with the Skate won't last pass a few months.On another note, I bust my @$$ in the kitchen on those new Fancy wheels. So I am out of commission with a pulled hamstring for a few weeks...lol...Overall, pretty good buy. Enjoy!!

These are OK for the price. The boot is comfortable. I didn't feel any blisters or pressure while skating. The bad news is that the toe stops are absolutely useless plastic placeholders. You will have to replace them. The wheels are flimsy and cheap. I took these skates to the rink but ended up getting a pair of rental skates anyway. It was disappointing. I guess I should have known better. With all the money you would spend upgrading these, you might be better off spending a little more money to get a mid pair mid priced skates.

I'm a size 9 in womens, I purchased both sizes 7 and 9 (mens)... the size 7 fit tight with socks, I would recommend footies. After I skated, I broke them in, after breaking in the size 7 with footies the fitted perfectly. The size 8 I had more room, felt slightly big, but if you have wide feet like myself I would recommend the size 8 with a sock. The wheels are great! If you want to buy new wheels I suggest skate with the included wheels first. The stoppers are terrible at first but do some breaking in purposeful lightly(stopping) I recommend new stoppers or you could possibly be hurt (falling face first before stopping!) Otherwise it would have deserved a 5 stars!

My nephew plays roller hockey at our local rink. He has been playing for the last three years since he was 8 years old. He is very good and very skilled, and needs a pair of excellent skates to accompany his skill. These skates originally were bought as a cheap pair for him to practice in. ((I say cheap because certain brands, features, etc have some skates upwards of $200+)) After a few uses we realized these were not going to work for that and would become regular skate - skates. For the average skater, these are wonderful. The design is great, the materials are nice, the fit was good and normal for him, the bearings are strong, and the wheels weren’t bad for the price. The biggest negative would be the “rubber” toe stops. They are too hard to be effective but more importantly, the placement is useless. He was able to use them for a little bit before the angle that was worn onto them become completely ineffective. No, it wasn’t a weird angle or anything user related - skate stops wear down from normal use, that is their purpose. In the end - poor design led to this issue. Outside of that, again - for a REGULAR skater skate night, these are a good skate. Anything more, I would not recommend.

We needed something other than the rentals when My husband was teaching our son to skate. These seemed way too good to be true for the price. Let’s just say they outperformed our expectations. Looked like we spent way more IMO. Brought back great memories of skating as a kid.He wears a men’s 9.5-10 and got size 9 as you want them snug. Fit perfect!

I bs you not I was skating for the first time down the river trail which is entirely FLAT, all of a sudden I’m going face first into the ground. The bolt on the front truck snapped in half. Now I am messed up and have to walk 3 miles back to my car in socks. I am currently in my way back to my car and will be calling amazon for my money back after I post this.

Bought these roller skates for Christmas so not used yet. They look fantastic very well made thank you

Your browser does not support HTML5 video.  Muy buena calidad pero no son para uso en superficies de concreto cepillado o de asfalto debido a que las llantas son muy duras. Golpear con las ruedas pequeños objetos como rocas, ramas o incluso polvo te hará tropezar. El freno es muy duro y realmente no funciona. El mejor lugar para usarlos es en pista de madera o de concreto pulido.Actualización 31ENE2019: Remplacé las llantas por unas marca BLAZER dureza 82A y ahora puedo patinar sobre asfalto y concreto cepillado.

El producto cumple con su función, buenos materiales. Solo el detalle es que la caja llego muy maltratada y el patín izquierdo con un pequeño rayón en la punta de enfrente. Soy talla 3.5 MX encargue los 6 y me quedaron perfecto.

En cuanto a costo-beneficio fue una súper compra. Nos habían gustado otros modelos pero la variedad de tallas está muy limitada.

These skates are great on smooth surfaces but you can feel every little bump anywhere else.
