Review on GTX 500 Black Roller Skates Ladies by Richard Lamptey

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good skates for beginners

I bought these skates for my son who is still studying but he needed his own skates not skates to rent. They're affordable considering he'll outgrow them in a year or two. I was told to order a size up to allow some room to grow and they fit well. They scratch very easily in the toe area, so I'm deducting a star. He seems to have liked them since he first used them on the rink. These are very popular skates, especially among beginners and children. I would recommend them to beginners. **Update** My son loves these skates. However, the toe area was badly scraped after only two times on the ice rink. While they have room to grow I'm not sure the boot will last that long. I may need to order toe guards if these skates have one.

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • Useless functions
