I bought these for my son. He wears a size 3, and since I know these run small they were perfect. He loves them because they have the double wheels.

Purchased this shoe for my 11 year old. He normally wears a 7 to 7.5. I bought the 8 and it fit perfectly. Of course he loves this shoe! It's really well made and surprisingly heavy-duty. It takes the abuse until they just don't fit anymore and they continue to look good. All in all, really good buy and no kid in his right mind wouldn't love it. It was sitting on my desk at work and even the grown men in the office had to stop by and ask what what the shoe was. Some swore to buy a pair for themselves! Highly recommended!

I was extremely pleased with the Heelys I got from Zappos! Not only were they high quality, but I got them the day after I ordered them, which is unheard of in these days and times. I actually ordered two pairs, one for my 8 year old grandson and one for my 5 year old grandson. The 5 year old grandson was relieved because the Heelys had two wheels, which he hopes will make it easier for him to learn. My 8 year old grandson liked the two wheels just because it was something new, and he thought he might make it a little easier, too! They were both thrilled and thought they were cool looking, they couldn't get the boxes open fast enough! And the prices were competitive with the shopping mall, which I didn't have to fight my way through during Christmas rush; I still can't believe I got it next day, right at Christmas though! Wow! Thanks Zappos! I'm a loyal customer for good!

This is the second pair of Heely Rapid we've gotten for our son. The double wheels in each shoe provide better balance and offer stability. It is less work to keep the toe of the shoe up, so he doesn't trip over his toes.The shoe is so well constructed that his other pair still looks great. He just outgrew them. We bought this pair two sizes big, for growing room. Even so, with the way the shoe is made and the plush padding, they fit comfortably and he'll get more use out of them.

I purchased the heeleys as a christmas gift for someone very dear to me. This type was specifically requested and it was important to me that I find them. This was the only website that I was able to find them. I was very pleased with the look but he was even more pleased with the performance. I would highly recommend not only purchasing heeleys from Zappos but any product. Placing the order was easy and they shipped in a timely manner.

My 9 year old son loved these shoes! The double wheels are great! This is his first pair of Heely's and he was able to master them in a day or two. The trouble is, he doesn't want to take them off! They really do run small. Order at least a size larger than normal. I picked this pair because of the positive reviews from other shoppers. Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback!

We got exactly what we wanted. The price was reasonable, and less expensive than other places even when we added in taxes and shipping. The box said Zappos all over it (which only matters if you're mailing a surprise to someone). The shoes were in perfect condition!

These are great shoes, and better then the single wheel Heelys. Two wheels version offer greater stability. I bought 2 pairs for my children. They love them. Remember these shoes run one size smaller than what kids normally wear.

I had a great experience buying the only pair of affordable Heelys in the United States that I could find to fit my young son. Even after ordering online, I had to call to ask a question and the service person was extremely pleasant and helpful!

I recently purchase Heely shoes for my grandson for his birthday. The shoes were excellent quality and arrived exactly on time. Purchasing from Zappos was a good experience!

Zappos.com has an amazing selection of shoes. I was having an incredibly difficult time finding the right pair of Heely's for my nephew, but then I came across Zappos. Zappos had a great selection of Heely's for all ages and the product was actually in stock (unlike other sites). I ordered the shoes and they arrived two days later with standard shipping! They also have a very easy and customer friendly return policy, but of course I did not need to use it. I am now a loyal, Zappos customer for life!

My first purchase online.
Yes it was my first purchase ever on the internet. I was so happy when the heelys arrived on time. My son loves them. We ordered a size up just as suggested by others, and they fit great. A very nice product.

My son loved them as a shoe, unfortunately we must have received a defective pair, as the threading kept unraveling out of the sides of the shoe creating a very messy and ragged look. I am still giving them five stars since they would have looked and felt perfect except for the loose threads sticking out EVERYWHERE making him look like a "ragamuffin." I even tried just snipping the loose threads, but they were just fraying all over the place. Zappos is always very fast and great about returns, luckily. On another note, he wasn't too keen with skating (too young, I think), but he said they were the most comfortable shoes he had every owned!

Awesome Heelys! I ordered these for Heelys’ fondest customer...my twelve year old grandson. He needed them in a hurry, as he was rapidly growing out of his first pair and couldn't be talked into another pair of shoes until he got those. In no time flat, he had the look, fit, and style he needed to 'rock & roll.' Thanks a bunch!

Functional and attractive -
These run a little small in my opinion. Maybe we just like ours with room to grow. These have the extra wheel, so that took my son some time to get used to. Overall we are very happy with the way these shoes performed and looked.

I love Zappos.com - I was so impressed with how easy it was to order the item. Free shipping and I received the order within a couple of days. I will definitely order from Zappos.com again! The shoe is 1 size smaller than it is marked but I was able to order the size that fits because the size difference was listed on the web site.

Customer Service is Back!!!
I ordered these shoes for my grandson. They were delivered the next day. He loved them. About a week later one of the wheels would not move. I emailed Zappos and received an immediate reply. They stated they were shipping another paid out and sent instructions for the label for the return pair. I received them the next day! My grandson was thrilled! I was thrilled! Thank you Zappos!! Some things are the way they use to be. Hallelujah!

Heelys Review -
My son loves his Heelys. He's not to thrilled with the skating part. However, he loves the shoes and wears them everyday.

Heelys -
These were true to size. My daughter has wanted a pair with the double wheels for quite some time. They don't make them large enough in the womens for some reason. We did try the womens in the same size but the mens seem to fit better. They are wider.

Wonderful shoe!
We bought these shoes for my daughter’s birthday. She absolutely loves them, and wears them all the time. Shipping was amazing!!! We ordered them at 4:45 p.m. on Thursday and received them at 10:30 a.m. Friday! And the price was fair. We followed the sites advice and ordered a size larger and they fit perfectly, not too big, but just enough growing room to last into the summer. I have already recommend Zappos.com to 3 or 4 family members.

Mother of two boys -
My boys love Heelys!! This is the second order
as I ordered last year and they outgrew them. I
now know to order them two sizes larger and they
should be able to wear them a little longer! I
ordered the rapids for my youngest son who is eight he wanted two wheels as he had one wheel
last year and is a very good skater on them. For
anyone considering a cheaper off brand I would
suggest not to do so as the Heelys are safer
and easier for kids to skate in as the wheels
roll better. I will always order Heelys for
my kids.

I really can't think of another online shoe store that can match Zappos top-notch service! My son decided to change his Santa list just before Christmas so I made a mad dash for my computer to place the order with Zappos. The shoes came to my door stop hours before Christmas Eve and couldn't thank Zappos enough for giving our family one more magical Christmas together! You have to order one full size larger when ordering Heelys.
