Panther XT Inline Skates for Men with Adjustable Strap, 82mm Wheels and Soft Boot Fit for Skating, Roller Derby, Street Hockey (12.0-Black/Gray)

Skates were of low quality, not comfortable at all and not original brand.. returned

This isn't comfortable at all. It's adjustable but not something you can wear for long. Also, it's not the 5th element but some random brand.Not very smooth for an adult, I bought it for myself and now I have ordered Decathlon. If you are an adult avoid this low quality item. For kids you can invest in a high quality skate.

I love these worth the money. My friend bought some for $160 and said he liked mine better so it worth it and the material is great

Bought these for my son and he loves them!

Super good

These are good skates for the price. I weigh 220lbs and when I skated like 3+ a week (when I was in my early 20's, I'm 35 now) I was really good. I could skate for miles! These are ABEC-7 and 82mm wheels. What I used to skate with was ABEC-5's (technically not as "slick/smooth") and were a smaller wheel at 78mm. As of right now, I'll be honest and say that it's probably because I haven't bladded in over a decade that I "don't like these as much as my old blades"What inspired me to get these, was the other night I broke out my old Salomon blades and took my dog for a very quick stroll. Not really much of a learning curve. Kinda like getting back on a bike. However... With these much bigger wheels and better rated bearings, I almost busted myself! Definitely NOT digging the bigger wheels and the BIGGEST most IMPORTANT factor to me and not doing so well on these is possibly due to the size/quality around ankle support. My Salomon blades are a size 10.5 (what I wear) these weren't available in that size, so I got the 11's and because of that, my ankles aren't supported enough like my Salomons, I have to make them tight as heck to get anywhere close to my old blades (Granted, this could still be because I haven't bladded in a while and need to get my ankles back and fit, but I can still ride better with my old ones, with busted and worn wheels. Honestly these probably are good blades after broken in, but if you wear a X.5, I'd suggest ordering a size .5 smaller Ie: my situation. Better to be a little tight and secure than too loose and blade like a newborn calf with weak ankles.After I break in these wheels more and get more acclimated to the 4mm bigger size wheel and whatnot, I'll post an update.Hope this helps.

I ordered a size 12 but they fit like an 11.5Size up.
