Review on NIKINER Classic Premium High Top Leather by Steven Jackson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

True to size, good quality for everyday skating

Classic high roller skates with transparent wheels. They are snug but not tight and if you know your European size they will true to size. The US conversion seems a bit off so I went with the EU size to be on the safe side and it fits perfectly (US size would be too big). The skates are smooth and roll well, and the front stop works well enough for slow to medium skating. Fittings for trolleys and wheels are not very high quality, but they are suitable for everyday use. They work best on sidewalks, hardwood floors, and smooth stone or cement floors. The trucks are almost entirely plastic but they are good quality but not something I would consider for competitive or advanced driving. The bearings are decent but average from what I expected at this price point. The trucks can be loosened or tightened depending on your driving style and are pretty well adjusted out of the box. The skates come with a thin zip bag that is good enough to keep dust out but is not very durable. All in all a pretty decent set of skates for casual use and the wheels and bearings can be upgraded if desired. The boot part seems to be the most enjoyable part and seems like it will take a while.
