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!

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!!!

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.

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!

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.

Excellent choice for 10 year old girl!
Our niece was so tickled and proud of her new Heelys! I think that nothing could have made her any happier. She normally wears a 3 or 3.5, but the size 3 (youth/adult) fits her perfectly. The width is good, and the support is excellent. She whizzes around like a pro! Very good value, and cheaper than we've seen in the stores. Quality is excellent! Love the color too! (UNC fan here)!
Thanks very much, and with the no sales tax, and no shipping, the value is even better than the price alone!!!!!!!!!!!

Trays Heelys -
Zappos is a great Company. I placed my order on a Thursday night at 10:00pm and received my shoes the next day. Wow they were fast and there were no problems with the order. I would definitely recommend this Great Company to the consumer. Thanks Zappos!!!

 |  | Dear customer service guys: I wanted to say how awesome your staff is. I've dealt with several via phone doing some shoe shopping, and they're always, always, always cheerful and they personalize the conversation. Your staff seems to enjoy their work and makes shopping online/exchanging via phone a breeze. The VIP overnight shipping is great too, but I could do without that as long as your staff continued their positive, personal service to customers. Thanks so much to whoever trains your staff...you've obviously got great staff training programs and great managers/supervisors. Thanks again!!! |  | ~ Elizabeth H., November 08 2009
