I'm new to skating and did A LOT of research before settling on Lollys. I wanted something that would be good for a beginner but inspire/encourage/support growth. Ultimately, I decided to spend a little more (1) on something that got me excited to get to the park and (2) to support Moxi (I watched Michelle's explanation of all the skates on YouTube and loved the thought and energy put into creating them). I'm still learning the basics and getting comfortable on wheels, but with these skates, I feel confident that I'll be able to. I absolutely love the way they fit and feel, that they are beautiful and personal and made by people who know skating. Also, there is something about the Pineapple color that gets me so damn excited to get out and get them on, making that potentially terrifying period of total beginnerness (for me, at least) a lot less intimidating and way more fun.
Moxi did forget to send me a tracking number, which made me wonder for a while. But then when the skates did arrive (within six days, I believe), it was a very unexpected and pleasant surprise.
