Riedell Orbit Roller Skates are a colorful re-invention of Riedell's model 111 boot, which is a popular high top that offers good ankle support and a comfortable fit. Instead of traditional black or white, Riedell has made a colorful infusion on these outdoor skates so that they can truly shine outside and under the sun! Riedell Orbit skates come with hybrid wheels, best used on smooth outdoor/indoor surfaces. (We highly recommend getting bigger/softer - 78A/65MM - outdoor wheels for a more smooth feel on rough outdoor surfaces or long distance skating.)
