I am an 18 year old girl who bought these
shoes because of the influence of Mr. Toby "Tobuscus" Joe Turne. Before buying, I had searched through the
women's Heelys and found an alarming lack of choice and style. This style more closely resembles
Vans shoes because of its clunky appearance. I suggest trying on
Heelys in a store before ordering offline. I wear a 5½ snugly and these
shoes in
men's size 4 fits me perfectly. The extra space in the
sole (for the wheel) adds about an inch to the user's height with just the plugs,
and 1½" with the wheels in. I have worn these
shoes with plugs to school. They have more support and comfort than my
Vans, although there is an unusually small space for the heel of my foot inside the shoe. That being said, these
shoes are not to be run in. Because the soles are used as breaks, they do not bend easily. The wheels are durable, but one small pebble will send you sprawling. Overall, I have been very pleased with my purchase of these
shoes and would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a new shoe, skate, and skill, all in one.
