> 3 dayI’ve been skating a lot lately and got tired of renting the dirty skates at the rink. Someone at the pro shop recommended these and I tried on a pair and liked them but they were out of my size. I was happy to find them on Amazon with my choice of wheel but I had a change of heart when they arrived. I was underwhelmed when removing them from the box, and they looked cheaper than I remembered too. They also are faux suede and my concern was how they would hold up over time. I wasn’t a huge fan of the gummy wheels and I just wasn’t happy with the quality overall, maybe because I had done more research between the time I ordered them and the time they arrived. I decided to go with a sturdier pair made from real suede so these were returned.

> 3 dayA 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.

22-11-2024I 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!

> 3 dayLove the fitting of this. I used to have my impalas for 2 months but I’m not progressing when it comes to artistic roller skating so I’ve upgraded to the vistas. It’s so light and you can’t feel the floor ( the cracks ). The boot is like a glove it just feels nice. I’m a size 7.5 women but I opt for the 7 and I wear socks too. My feet are wide and this is just absolutely lovely. Purple is my colour so that’s a plus. The only thing that I absolutely disliked was the wheels are so screwed so so so tight that I could not adjust them myself. It took me 2 days to finally get it unscrewed. Pls whoever supplied the JACKSON VISTA roller skates, you don’t need to screw them wheels and tracks crazy tight, coz skaters will and always adjust it in our liking. I just hurt my hand and my wrist because of this that’s why I’m only giving 3 stars. My right hand is still suffering from tremors post adjusting the wheels. But if you have anyone with a strong hand to do it for you pls don’t attempt to adjust it , you’ll just end up like me. I would definitely recommend to use a toe protector to keep your skates looking fab.

> 3 dayI ordered some Impala skates because they had all types of beautiful colors and patterns but just because everything LOOKS good doesn’t mean it is good! Impala skates were VERY uncomfortable! Tried to keep them for a while thinking I could break them in and just needed to give them some time, but after a month, and me skating faithfully every weekend and sometimes during the week nothing changed. I returned them and decided to try these Jackson Vistas I ran across here on Amazon. The color first off caught my attention as purple is my favorite. I read reviews and did my research and even went to my local skate shop and inquired about the brand. The price was a bit “up there” but let me tell you ITS WELL WORTH IT! As soon as I put my feet in them they felt like heaven! Like a breath of fresh air immediately! Then I took them to the rink to try them out and they DID NOT FAIL! I’m so pleased and happy with this purchase! Skating with the Impala brand felt like I was torturing myself whenever I tried to skate in them! They were so u comfortable, BUT THESE JACKSON VISTA!!! Omg! Can’t say enough good things about them…I can sleep in them they’re so comfy

> 3 dayQuality: top-notch, extremely comfortable, sturdy, and smooth. And when I say sturdy I mean sturdy. If youre looking for the ankle mobility you get in Moxy Lollys, you wont find that with the Vistas. These are ideal if you plan on getting a little gnarly. I know sizing can be challenging, so hopefully my experience can help someone. My foot measures exactly 10.5 inches, and I wear an 11 in vans. I tried both size 10 and size 9. Even after adding a superfeet insert, there was too much space in the toes in the size 10 and it felt unstable. The 9 is painful with added inserts, but without inserts its fantastically snug. My toes graze the end, and they give me amazing control. I did have to loosen the laces near the toes to give them some room. I hope that helps someone who is struggling with sizing.

> 3 dayI 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!

> 3 dayGreat skate but it was somewhat too stiff. Maybe I need to break them in a bit more. Overall it looks great and I know I should have gotten a size smaller since there are no 8 and half had to go to a 9.
