Please, Please do not purchase this product it is awful. I purchased this for my daughter's birthday and gave her a skate party and would you believe the things broke 30 minutes after putting theme on for the first time. My daughter fell and was injured because the wheels completely broke off.

I would not recommend this product to anyone. First of all they're described as "unisex", but when I received them, they were in a mens size. The second and most important reason I would not recommend these skates is the poor quality. I ordered these for my daughter and two friends as Christmas gifts. It is now only two weeks into January, and two of the three pairs ordered are already broken. Some of my daughter's other friends received the same brand of skates for Christmas as well, and most have broken as well. Save your money!
Honest reviews on Chicago Bullet Speed Skate ,Black
This is a great inexpensive skate if you are just using them to skate around in. However I do roller derby and the wheels are extremely slippery when I go around turns. The skate overall is really good. Just those darn wheels need to be replaced.

I bought these skate for my daughter, she wanted to try it out and I didn't want to spend much money in case she didn't like it. I also bought a pair of nicer speed skates for myself and we hit the rink. The Bullet's boot is not a bad one for the price. The wheels are total junk though, they are made from really cheap plastic and offer no grip indoors, After 2 times at the rink, I replaced them with some nice Sure-Grip (made in USA) Zoom wheels. That helped a little but she kept telling me that she felt like she was gong to fall backwards. I inspected her plates and compared to mine, they were at least 3/8 from the end of the heal which is far too short (mine go all the way to the end of the heel). Not very good at all for the beginner, the wheels should be centered over your heel. To far forward and it's not easy for the in-experienced. Also, the axles and trucks looked very cheap like they would break any minute. I'm not sure if any of the other sizes in this brand are that way but I assure you the size seven is and that's just a bad way for someone to learn to skate. So, being the handyman I am, I replaced her plates and trucks with some Sure-Grip probe nylons which are made in USA. The Zoom Wheels were 40 bucks and the plates were 54. Add that to the 50 bucks for the skates to begin with and maybe you all see my point here. The boot was the only useable part and it's vinyl, not leather. But hey, she has the nicest Bullet skates around! If I were you, I would buy something a little safer that's better built. I know that there are a lot of good reviews on this skate but then again their is also a lot of people who don't know better. You get what you pay for. If you want something better built, I would start with a set of skates from Sure-Grip. They make a nice speed skate with a leather boot and Probe plates with many different combinations of outdoor, indoor or outdoor indoor combination wheels starting at about 140.00. The main benefit is everything but the boot is made in USA and everything but the boot is guaranteed for life, not 30 days like the Chicago's are. I hope this helps.
