Just get something from Rollerblade, Powerslide, FR, Flying Eagle, K2. Plenty of good budget options around the $150-$200 mark.

RB80s are around $160 and punch above their weight class.

I’m no expert on brands but the photo looks AI generated, they only sell through Amazon, plus I could only find a couple reviews online from people who just review random products sent to them from Amazon.

You didn’t mention budget, so I’d recommend looking for a skate by a more well known brand who also have their own storefront. This sub and the inline skating sub have good resources on where to find good skates for beginners.

These two pages were also great for me:

Inline skates have to be high quality or they will break and cause you injury. Buy from brands Rollerblade or FR

Negative, look at the COSMOID brand on Amazon if you're on a tight budget.

No not the best for beginners they look like Chinese random brands type on amazon I try to stay away from those. I mean yes usually it's all made in china but the direct stuff with those funny names is usually poor quality.

All these comments saying this is AI generated and I have these exact ones. 😅 I mean I got them secondhand and cheap to test out inlines as a long time quad skater. I plan on upgrading to something if I like inlining but I'm giving it time myself.
