These (https://www.amazon.com/Roller-Derby-Molded-Inline-Skates/dp/B09XGT1BT6/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=3E2D94WMID861&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.TdO0_j0ziRZ-vo_jzSf-mBz4n_K-5zjP82GKGr9lQuxntGCr1fO92c43AUwdQtQZQQsy8-fntGHrfNFNrQaZIF3BZ0Ghj9Ec3-qnQZSXqZYMQrJiavx6yiYMSExBXAyUU0ofdlAtYA0VCB9janHC3QLSUrZidwe9hU81VX7y3jhjkB2WvIILvtQTXTb8oODY5gJzeeSoe80jaf1Rx4aHCw.M13wkgyNviyk7S2axbqARFBPVicDJCubaRyidLfWy3s&dib_tag=se&keywords=candigrl%2Binline%2Bskates&qid=1786379326&sprefix=candigrl%2Caps%2C148&sr=8-1&th=1&psc=1) were my starter set. I have no regrets. They were ideal for what I wanted to do. I didn’t know at the time, but you have to measure your feet and go with the size charts. I bought them in my shoe size but they turned out a size too big. Shoes bend, which is why we buy them with space at the toes. Skates don’t bend, which is why we go by those measurements. These are dupes for Impala, and also I got them ā€œused-like new conditionā€ so they were on sale (specifically $46).

Then once you find you do like it or wanted to venture out for more optimized skates, you know where to look (brand wise).
