After years on K2 Moto Fitness skates, I "upgraded" to the Moto 90s. They tie up a little different than the Moto Fitness skates and chew at the laces. After the first day, one lace was almost chewed through. They also don't feel as secure around the ankle as my other skates. After a few days, one of the wheels starting making a terrible sound that could be described as chirping. K2s response was dirty bearings, but for skates a week old and used for a couple of hours I doubt it. No longer happy with the K2 bearings, I ended up replacing all the K2 bearings with my older Bones bearings. The skates felt true to size and are comfortable, though not as secure as I'd like. As far as appearance, the skates are very white and look like new shoes on the first day of school. A fan of K2 for years, I'll now consider other brands for my next purchase. As usual, Zappos service was outstanding and the skates arrived much sooner than expected. Thanks!

Skates rock -
I have tried all the previous k2 models below these in past month on the track (Exo, Alum, Moto (Hilo). These are by far the best of the lot so far. Was going to try next up but I have found out Hilo setup not too good. Back wheels like to lost traction crossovering and you can flip back of your foot out while straight skating. I went with the 2008 model being k2 improved the fit for this year. I took off the 90mm wheels to SAVE" the best for after break-in period. Comfortable from start just right after a few hours of skating and stayed there. With 80 wheels and ilq9 bearing these screamed, manuvered great. Most fun I have had since I got great equipment. Was able to try new thing and these skates stuck and worked flawless. Putting the 90mm back on today for next outing. I would recommend these highly. Everything stays snug, makes you feel secure skating and become more daring. Also like to say ZAPPOS rocks for K2 skates. Fast free shipping fantastic product. I dealt with another place during my trials and they rate a zero for K2's.

Great skate, comfortable in the long haul -
I've put well over 60 miles on these since getting them about a month ago, including the NYC skate marathon. I've had 0 blisters, chafing spots, or pressure points. They're very comfortable and well built. They're fast and more than stable enough to take me over the unforgiving terrain of Chicago streets and sidewalks.
I've had K2 skates in the past, and therefore knew that these would be compatible with the shape of my foot, and knew what size to get. I would always recommend trying a skate on before you buy it, unless you're sure that they'll fit. On the other hand, I can vouch that these have no break-in period - they were perfectly comfortable from day 1. They're also quick and maneuverable - I use them to commute to and from work in Chicago, and so far I haven't had trouble dodging cars, dogs, or pedestrians. Having been a skater for 10+ years, I can say that these skates are a good bet.

Excellent skates - and the shipping cannot be beat!
I bought these skates approximately one month ago after a several-year hiatus. My old K2 Carbons were in fact quite old by this point and slowly coming undone. At the time I had thought they were quite the skate and comfortable too, but they can't hold a candle to my new Moto 90's. If you're not ready for 100mm-Speed Skates, these are the only blades I would recommend. They've held up well so far, and I've already put a good 50 miles on them (rotated the wheels once so far). Heck, for as well-cushioned and snug as they arrived, they hardly needed any breaking in. My third day owning them I went on a 22-mile trek and never once had to consider pain in my feet.
Highly recommended!

Wonderful skate for an advanced intermediate skater -
I've been fitness skating since 1999. I go along a shoulder of a state highway. The shoulder varies in width from narrow to several feet wide, and there are some very steep hills on my route. So I need a skate that I can trust and that will help me tolerate imperfections in the surface. After all, if I fall the wrong way, I could end up in the road, getting hit by a car going 60 mph.
I bought the Moto 90 a few weeks ago to replace a pair of K2 Flight ALX that I've had since 2000. I am lovin' the Moto 90 skates. The 90 mm wheels do help, and I like that having big wheels mean that the rubber can be hard yet the wheels are forgiving. The comfort is very good, but not great...at least not yet. I might need a few more runs to feel really comfy in the skates, but they are certainly more comfortable than the Flight ALX.
I tried the skates with the original insoles and with the Superfeet grey that Zappos recommends, and they are definitely better--more comfortable and more efficient--with the Superfeet insoles.
One other thing I want to mention: Zappos was absolutely amazing in filling this order. I had decided on July 3 that maybe it was time for new skates. I called Zappos on July 4 (a pretty major holiday), late in the afternoon, to ask about sizing. (I had read people saying that these skates were a full size off. Incorrect: they are true to size.) I placed the order around 4:30 pm on July 4. And I had them by 10:30 the next morning! Wow. I have never encountered order fulfillment like that before.

Comfortable skates but poor quality -
The skates are extremely comfortable and I can enjoy long sessions (> 25 miles) without problems. Having that said, the quality is somewhat poor: One of the shoelace began falling apart the first time I pulled on it, and the strap's buckle attachment ripped after only 2 months usage. Nothing a bit of thread couldn't fix but this never happened on my old rollerblades and Salomon skates and they lasted 5+ years each...

Great for intermediate -
Great skate, I highly recommend. The 90 mm wheels can blow all the smaller size wheels away. ILQ-9's are the way to go.

EXCELLENT SKATES !!
I love these skates !! I looked at several others before choosing this pair. Always been a loyal K2 customer. I recommend these to anyone looking to upgrade like I did.

Overall good rollerblade -
These are the first rollerblades I have owned in years, and I am absolutely satisfied with them. They are very comfortable, and they hold my feet securely in place with no slippage at all. The wheels are large at 90MM; I was very surprised, but they allow you to move almost effortlessly. The only thing I don't like is that after only a couple weeks of having them the graphics have started to wear & the orange brackets holding the wheels have started scratching, removing the orange. Other than that they are an overall good skate, maybe a little overpriced for what you may be doing, but I bought them to exercise with on the rail trail in my city.

Moto 90's Rock -
After waiting several years to replace my old, worn-out Rollerblades, I settled on the Moto 90's. They're fast and smooth. Overall, I love them. They are easily adjustable, fit just right and quick to put on or to take off. The only thing that I don't love about them is that the velcro strap that goes on top of the foot has a tendency to grab the laces. I wouldn't recommend these to a beginner, but they'll do for any intermediate/advanced skater...and they're fast.

I bought the Moto 90 as an upgrade from a previous K2 skate, and I am extremely satisfied. The construction and support of the boot are great. I wasn't sure about wanting/needing the increased wheel size at first, but I can really tell a difference in speed from my previous pair. These also seem to give a smoother ride on rough pavement.

K-2 Moto-90 -
My brother convinced me to switch to K-2 from rollerblades and we each purchased a pair. His fit great and he likes them. I felt they were a little narrow and had an intense pressure point on the left skate that I did not want to deal with. Also felt they lacked lateral support in relation to my pair of Rollerblades so I returned my pair. My brother is entirely satisfied and I will be looking to get another pair of Rollerblades.

K2 Skates's Moto 90 - very comfortable boot -
Two things I appreciated about these skates: very comfortable soft boot and no-nonsense sturdy construction overall.

Good but a little difficult to turn -
I got the roller blades about 2 to 3 weeks ago and I love them. Since I have such a big size this was one of the only pairs of roller blades that I could get. I don't think that they are street hockey roller blades because they are hard to turn in but I guess that it just takes some getting used to. Thanks.

K2 Moto 90 -
Great upgrade to a better inline skate. The 90mm makes all the difference. The 90 Moto has great comfort for the performance.

 |  | To Whom It May Concern: I received my Ariat boots a couple of days ago. I just wanted to let you know they were exactly as I had expected. I've worn the black ones and received so many compliments on them. I told them how happy I was with Zappos and how quickly they came after I ordered. Keep
up the good work. Mary Ann |  | ~ Mary Ann, September 28 2009
