Customer Reviews Heelys Atomic (Youth/Adult)

ZAPPOS ROCKS quick shipping and BEST PRICE ON HEELYS! I bought Heelys for myself, my husband, and my daughter. It is a little intimidating at first, but pretty quick to learn, about two days of practicing and you'll get the hang of it...although my daughter (4 yrs. old) is much better than us. I recommend you buy a size larger than you are in other gym shoes. I bought the Atomic men’s size 9 when I normally wear an 8 to an 8.5 in men’s gym shoes. They fit, but are a bit narrow by my pinky toe. I do have a wide foot in women’s shoes but in men’s I never have a problem with width so I say this shoe is a little narrow in the front. These are great but be prepared to remove the wheel on long trips, we were at Disney and the endless walking was too with the wheels (and the plugs don't feel that much better so we wore them without anything and it felt better after we were worn out). My daughter never took the wheels out because she would get pulled by us when she was tired. Much better than dragging a stroller around the parks. Even though they are technically not allowed at Disney Parks (per some cast members) we never really ran into any problems. Everyone thought they were cool and wished they were around when they were young.

Heelys Rock! My five year old son LOVES his new Heelys. He may be a bit young to be effective in them but he still thinks he's super cool. It's great that he can wear them with the wheel in the heel, but also take them out to wear them to school and that's easy to do...even for a five year old.

For my son - I got this shoe for my son. He seems to really like them. He was a little mad that we could not get the color he wanted, but they still work the same. Don't get them for your child if they do not have good balance.

Can't be that great if he won't wear them! I was so excited to get Heelys for my stepson. I have to say I am disappointed in the shoes and really wondering if studies should be done on the effects this shoe will have on developing bones. They FORCE you to walk awkwardly when the wheels are in. Unfortunately, one cannot Heely continuously without ever walking in them, which results in a severe amount of discomfort for my son. Also, he elects to wear his old junk shoes over these because he says they have an uncomfortable bump in them, even when the wheels are out. I have decided not to purchase a pair for my younger son. They can't be all that if my son leaves them home every day. He seems excited to have them only so that he can say "I have Heelys".

I bought Heelys for my child and was disappointed to find how uncomfortable they were. He complained that they were uncomfortable for walking without the wheels. I assumed they would be more comfortable for the price.

Young boy’s Heelys - We received the shoes within days of our order. My son loves them, he still a little young and has not mastered how to use them with the skates in them yet. They are a shop looking shoe and he enjoys wearing them even with the skates in.

Heelys Atomic Review - My son, 9, is who I bought these for. He has not had them long enough to learn how to use them. He is wearing them as regular sneakers without the wheels. I don't think he likes the color or style so much because he wanted another style for more money but I didn't want to spend that much money because his feet grow fast. I liked them. They fit me and I wanted to wear them!!!!
