Heely Shimmer Shoes - Really like this shoe. Bought them for my granddaughter. She wears a size 1-1 1/2 shoe right now. I ordered a size 2 but was sent a size 3. I thought they would be too big and I would have to send them back, but they fit perfectly. They are well padded and very well made. Very pleased with this shoe. Thanks!

Terrific - My daughter loved these and they were a great price compared to stores. Easy to use, great fit, does run 1 size smaller than what you normally wear, but we ordered appropriately. Love the shoes.

First of all the service received was nothing less than stellar and the folks I dealt with on the phone were more than helpful. Even more rewarding was the fact that I spoke with a real live human being not 30 minutes of listening to a voice recording, asking me to make selection after selection. These folks really know the meaning of customer service. The product we ordered was a top quality product, and the only problem was that I did not follow the advice of others, and did not order the next whole size up. This was not a problem though because I was able to contact Zappos and they had an exchange on the way in no time at all. From start to finish dealing with Zappos was a very pleasurable experience and I will definitely being doing a lot of my shopping with them in the future.

This is my 7th pair. I’ve been wearing them for a really long time and almost everyone I knew who wore them lost interest, but I’ve never gone weeks without wearing them. I still love wearing them when I feel like it… mall, movies, airports - wherever they are fun!

Shoes that roll. Once you lace up these shoes, you’re ready to take over the world! Exclusive to Heelys kids’ footwear, these powerful, lightweight athletic shoes feature a single-wheel housed in the heel, allowing athletes of all skill levels to walk, run and transition to a roll at any moment. Roll into all situations, or simply remove the wheel and transform your Heelys into a pair of fashionable street shoes.

Heelys kids’ skate shoes also include Sidewalk Sports with Maxtrax™ technology. Maxtrax™ technology brings freestyle walking and riding to a whole new level. Now, worrying about staying on your board is a thing of the past. Heelys youth Sidewalk Sports is the lifestyle footwear line that locks your feet where they need to be. Active kids can now focus on their skills and not keeping their feet on their board. These high-performance shoes provide traction for action.

Your favorite Heelys sneakers or Heelys shoes provide a fun way to get around town, while also getting some exercise. Zappos carries only authentic Heelys brand footwear and wheels, not to be mistaken for counterfeit, often misspelled Heelies. So remember it's spelled "Heelys", not "Heelies!"

Great Shoes! I bought these for my granddaughter and she loves them. She wears them to school in the day time. After school she puts the wheels in and off she goes... Fast service Zappos!!!

Heelys - My daughter loves them. This is her second pair, both pairs bought from Zappos.com. The only problem is that they are heavy. This is probably a design consideration that may not be changeable.

Great value for price - I ordered the Heelys shimmer for my daughter for Christmas. They fit her perfectly and look great. I especially like the fact that this style comes with the heel plug and removal tool, allowing her to wear them as "normal" shoes to school.

A TOTAL HIT! Our 7-year-old granddaughter loves her Heelys! She loves that they look like regular tennis shoes and unless she rolls no one knows what they are. The extra support inside makes them comfortable to wear as tennis shoes or Heelys. These were definitely THE Christmas gift for her this year. I love the fashion look they have. They are sized smaller than a regular shoe. She wears a size 1 normally, and I ordered a size 2. The sizing chart is confusing because a size in youth is different than a size in women. However, we ordered one size larger and it fits fine.

Excellent - I love the Heelys that I got for my daughter, they fit perfectly. I ordered a bigger size since I read the comments from other customers and they're perfect. And the overnight shipping from Zappos was awesome. I'm very happy.

Love ‘Em - Got these for my bday. I love them, I love the blue and white, I love how they look. The only thing I changed was the shoe laces. The heel is worn out that’s how often I wear them. Order one size up, e.g. for a size 2 men’s order a 3 or 4.

Great Quality - I bought these for my soon to be 7 yr. old, but my 9 yr. old owns a pair of the skater style ones as well. Both kids think they are very comfortable, although they wear them more as regular shoes than as skates. My daughter likes the fact that they make her look taller due to the thick sole. The thing that has impressed me most about the Heelys brand is that they are very durable. My 9 yr. old typically wears through a pair of Vans in 3-4 months, but he's been wearing the Heelys for over a year. They look rather beat up, but they're still in one piece.

Love them - I love them I got them in 2 days because I ordered them on Sunday. They are a little big which is good because they run small. They aren't clunky which my parents like. When I don’t want to wear the wheels I pop them out and put in the plugs.

Grandchildren Heelys - I ordered the Heelys for my grandchildren who have been having a wonderful time wearing/skating with their Heelys. They used them when we went to Disneyworld in Florida a few weeks ago. They skate now more than they walk. Glad I bought them.

Highly recommend - These are well made shoes in addition to a lot of fun! I’m glad my daughter (8yr old) is wearing them for the support instead of sandals this summer. Order a size larger - they didn’t feel big at all. She is a fan of roller blades and still had to work at the knack of wearing Heelys. I recommend a helmet, she took a few spills. They are wonderful on smooth surfaces, the road we stay off of since small pebbles will lock up the wheel unexpectedly. Love them tho - running errands is no longer a bore for her – I’m still getting used to this little bonus!

Nice shoe - My daughter really likes her Heelys. They aren't too heavy and are comfortable. The only problem is they are hard to keep clean. But she is happy with them.

My daughter loves these shoes - Lots of fun...but takes some learning so be careful. They are really cute and work well as shoes without the wheels, too.
