> 3 dayThese skates are good, well made and comfortable even tho my left foot always go asleep after 30 mins and i have to lose the laces a little. I would say that they are too pricey, that is for sure. A lot of other brands have similar products for way less money but i really wanted moxis for the designs and because i absolutely love Michelle. ONE PROBLEM, which is Amazon faults. My skates had nothing when i got them and that is how i knew i was getting a return. It did not have laces, tools, keychain or anything in the box at all. Just the skates . I wonder what kind of person has the nerves to do such thing. Amazon need to inspect their return but they do not and thats why you see reviews like mine or people complaining about getting different wheels on their skates because previous people ordered the pair to switch their wheels on their skates so they dont have to pay for it.... Sad

Greater than one weekI will start off with saying I am not the most skilled skater, but I do have a lengthy independent background. I was SUPER excited to get the Lollys, not only are they super cute, but excellent quality. They were definitely made with cruising outdoors in mind. I did a significant amount of research before deciding on these and from what I can tell they are authentic. Came with the exact same equipment, looks the exact same. MY ONLY COMPLAINTS, and I feel like these are important, but not game changers, are: some of the eyelets are not smooth and caught horribly while I was lacing them, also makes it a little difficult to loosen and tighten laces. I was hoping to replace the laces with something cuter, but now Im going to have to figure out how to fix this first. Next, I noticed there was a small knick on one of the nylon thrust plates on one skate, Im hoping this wont be an issue in the long run, but Im not planning on dropping into a bowl anytime soon so Im not super worried. And lastly the stock sole insert is SO thin, but I was already planning on replacing it for something more comfortable. Something that REALLY bothered me though, was how they were shipped. They were shipped in their decorative box AND IT WAS OPEN, I nearly had a heart attack seeing that! Im really surprised everythin made it here in one piece all together. No tape and the hole on the top of the box was punched out for the handle and the box was wide open, like holy smokes dude. Straight miracle I swear. And now for the good stuff. The bearings are sooooo smooth omg it rolls like butter. The color is so vivid and I love the yellow way more than I thought I would. I am a true 8.5 wide in womens and I opted to get a slightly bigger boot (size 8 boot) since I know I always struggle with narrow shoes and these are definitely narrow. I know that because theyre genuine suade they will fit better width wise after I break them in a bit, but I like the extra room so I can add a nice insole. I love the structure of the boot, the suede is strong but flexible, which is exactly what I was looking for, I tried out other boots and was really not okay with the stiffness that comes from a synthetic leather, but this will be just right after I get them broken in. The wheels are so nice, theyre soft and wide and will be perfect outdoors, if I take them to a rink Ill definitely switch them out, but thats just a given, not a problem at all. It also comes with a skate tool, which is perfect for adjusting the bearings and everything before you really take them out. Make sure to test everything out and loosen and tighten the bolts before you do anything else. Theres even an instruction booklet on how to do some maintenance. Overall Im pretty happy with the Moxi Lollys.
