I ignored all the reviews against these, but I should've listened: UNCOMFORTABLE and CHEAP
I ignored all the reviews against these, but I should've listened! I thought for sure others were just being overly picky, since my standards were low. The low price and the look of them sucked me in anyway... They are incredibly uncomfortable! It feels like the arch support is on both sides of the foot, but sharper (and I have narrow feet!). I don't think the hard, plastic tongue would've been that bad (paired with a thick sock), but it added to the already high discomfort level. I could barely stand in them, much less skate! I also ignored all the comments about the insoles, but, no, they are legit awful! For some reason, the insole is a separate piece from the rest of the boot, and is loose, flimsy and constantly folding up on itself. Don't make the same mistake I did - just invest the extra $50 in something that will be comfortable and not frustrating! The only scenario in which I think these may work is for kids who don't care about comfort or for someone who wants to replace/fix the insole/boot, but then you're investing more $$ into more cheaply made skates anyway...
