> 24 hourGreat quality, Jackson has been making great skates for years in Canada, awesome ankle support and padding. ABEC 7 bearing are superior to any skate in this price range, most have ABEC 3 or 5. The higher the number the smoother the ride, less effort. Wife just loves them.

> 24 hourProduct came as described. They are very cute and comfortable. Ive had lots of ride time on them and no signs of wear and tear! Occasionally I will accidentally run over a little rock and it doesnt stump me, its a smooth ride Im usually a size 8 or 8.5 in shoes. I ordered a size 8 in skates and they fit me perfectly fine, but if my feet were any bigger I would have gotten a size 9

> 24 hourA very good quality skates, with awesome outdoor wheels. At first the skates was stiff but after breaking it in, it comforms to my feet and very comfortable. Shipping arrived quicker than expected. I am 7.5 to 8 in women size. I got a size 7 and fits perfectly. Very happy with these skates.

> 24 hourThese look great and are very fun to skate in. Excellent wheels for outdoor skating. Stiff and supportive, yet comfortable boots. Trucks and plate make for a very smooth flowing ride. Only complaint is that the foot bed is a little firm, so I may add a softer insole. Good bearings, adjustable toe stops, long thick laces, comfy padding inside.

> 24 hourI bought the Jackson Viper after I bought a pair of cheap skates and ended up tipping over as the plate was not in an ideal place for a beginner that needs to learn balance. I know that Jackson is well known for their ice skates and I was not disappointed! I am a size 8, and bought an 8. There is enough room to put a thin insert, which I am happy about! The ankles are nicely padded and offer support and yet are still soft! They arent stiff and rigid, just structured. With ankles that roll, i need that. As a beginner I did not wat to spend the super high amount for real suede and these are the perfect alternative. The Atom wheels glide over cracks in the road beautifully! Absolutely gorgeous skates!

> 24 hourI used to figure skate and always owned Jackson skates. When my daughter and I decided to get roller skates, it was a no-brained for me. Jackson makes quality skates and I can count on the fit. These were beyond expectation! The wheels are super thick and gummy, perfect for outdoor skating in our little beach town. I researched other popular brands, and these far exceed them all!

> 24 hourI own both the Finesse and Vista models so here is my combined review: The Mint Finesse are beautiful and comfortable. The material is a textured pvc- easy to wipe clean, but also easy to scuff so if you skate hard, put a toe cover on them! Very supportive boot and an overall good quality skate. The Red Vista skates are more of a sueded microfiber texture so they should be easy to care for. The red color is deeper and more beautiful in person than on screen. The Vista boot is more padded and a bit stiffer than the Finesse boot. I would say (in my novice opinion) the Vista boot is built for more advanced skating where the Finesse are more for beginner or recreational skating. Both models are awesome, imo.

> 24 hourLove my new skates!! Be warned. They are heavy and a full leg work out. Extremely well made and true to size. Not fond of the plate just because I am used to metal. That said, there are zero stability or control issues due to the material. Ankle support is outstanding and up the calf a bit more than I expected, but that is a huge plus. Will be a bear to break in, but worth it. These skates will be rolling 30 years from now.
