The first pair I received were used. I tried them on any ways and as I was lacing them up one of the eyelets, tour right through the vinyl material. Hence to say the material is quite cheap. So I sent for a replacement instead of dealing with the shipping charges.

On the second pair I realized the material is cheaper than it should be, so I'm not lacing them as tight as I would a good quality skate. Even so first time I laced these ones up, one of the clips on the top bent. Not really a big deal but they should last longer than lacing them up one time.

They are comfortable, and the blades are good quality for the price.
