I just bought this product here at Zappos and it just arrived today. It took about 3 days to arrive, so that was pretty fast. At first, I had trouble putting them on until I found out that you could take the first strap off. Whoops? My own flaw. Well the skates have been working and comprehending well. Though I'm a beginner skater and I sadly don't know how to stop. The color is a bit ugly, and it's very conferrable. Practice makes perfect... ;)

K2 Athena skates great - These are great skates - comfortable and cute as can be. I love that a portion of the K2 profits goes to breast cancer research also. One word of warning: order a size larger than you think. I learned this the hard way with a previous K2 inline skates purchase and unfortunately I had not purchased it through Zappos so was unable to return it. Zappos was great... I love the guarantee and I experienced a nice bonus: an email stating that they were upgrading the shipping at no extra cost to me. I ordered these skates late Thursday night and was skating in them Saturday. Love the skates and love Zappos!

Excellent beginner skate - This skate has excellent support and great stability for the beginner or more advanced skater. It feels true to size, is very adjustable, and is extremely comfortable. It has a very nice color and design as well.

Amazing skates - I ordered these a day ago, and Zappos was kind enough to surprise me and upgrade my shipping choice for free. So, I got them today! They are amazingly comfortable, and I love the green designs. The skates are very light on your feet, as well. But I'm comparing the weight to the extremely heavy aggressive skates I also have. Not the same brand. I bought these for transportation reasons on my university campus. It's much easier to skate around than to drive, walk, or bike. For any skater, I suggest these. K2 is a very durable brand. Thanks Zappos! You've made a happy customer.

K-2 Skates Athena - The K-2 skates Athena look great and fit great. I have a slightly wider foot (but I don't buy wide tennis shoes) and the skates are very comfortable on me, but you may want to order 1/2 size larger to fit like your regular tennis shoe size (glad I did or I would have had to send them back and order a larger size). Very comfortable. Color is lighter than appearing on picture (like a medium to darker pair of blue jeans and there is real denim trim on skates which I couldn't see (picture appears to be more black than blue). Very cute skate, wheels roll nice. Zappos shipping is very fast. Friendly, helpful people taking orders. Hope this review helps. Someone else's review helped me with sizing & saved me a re-order & return.

K2 Skates T:Nine Athena - I got these for my 12 year old niece and she loved them. This is the 3rd pair of K2 skates I've given her, and the first pair in adult sizes. She wears a size 9 1/2 women’s shoe and I got her size 10 1/2 in the skates. We're very happy with the quality and appearance, and know from our previous experience with K2 skates that they are very durable.

Fantastic Skates!! I loved them from the moment I put them on. Not like the uncomfortable inline skates I tried 10 years ago. I could skate in them immediately (I am relatively new to inline skating, but am a proficient quad skater), I highly recommend! And did I mention - THEY ARE GORGEOUS!
