I appreciate this honest review, & your attention to detail when comparing the slades & flaneurz! E.g. the way the sandpaper on the flaneurz can get caught on clothing/trap dirt- that’s not something I’d considered, but it’s definitely good to know ^_^
Only sale now from $300 to 180! And yes they are the ONLY company that does this detachable plate... so they have the market and can price how they like.
I was searching for this kind of topic and you happened to post it literally an hr ago! Thanks so much for this. This justifies my purchase of slades which will be arriving today I can't wait!
What you can do if you want the technology now but can't afford Flaneurz is get slades first and get used to it, save up money etc and then replace the plates. I did exactly that, all I wanted was the technology. I got rid of the sneakers and the plates and got new plates from Roll line for 160€ and adidas top ten. I was lucky because I got the pre-order price of 150€ for the slades (instead of now 230€). So i got 2 pairs of shoes and basically a premium set-up for 450€ (instead of iconic series from flaneurz with only one pair of sneakers for 400€). Of course the prices went up now... slades now cost 230€ and Change your shoes Option costs 120 (instead of 100€ that I paid back then). But I think this option is still good enough if you want the skates now and can afford 230€ right away. It also gives you the freedom to choose the plates you like (e.g. I chose shorter plates than the premim Flaneurz would give me for my sneaker size)
@@esdavilo No, you can't get the plates alone. I bought plates online and mounted them myself. You can only get either a set of the rolling part + sneakers or only the sneakers. But unfortunately you can't get the rolling part/plates alone
@@steffanosdot6687 ok, I think I understand, you just changed the nylon plates that were supplied with the detachable wheel part of the shoe for a better quality plate? That’s a really good idea. Thanks for responding, I’ll definitely keep this in mind for when I get my Slades.
@@esdavilo Yes, that's what I did. This way I could use the slades and enjoy the benefits and upgrade when I had the money to get the plates. All in all, the mechanism is really worth its money. Still convinced that it was my best purchase 2021 xD
@@steffanosdot6687 this was very smart of you and a great idea. I certainly plan on upgrading my Slades a bit later on and I will save a lot more than simply purchasing the Flaneurz. Thanks a lot 👏😊
I just visited my university (HS graduate here) and it's... So... Big.. I immediately thought of this video as an option to get around the school! I'm excited to buy them and your video was super helpful, thank you so much!!
thank you for this video!! i first found out about these through your tiktok videos back in december and i've been dying to grab my own pair ever since and i finally bit the bullet! used your code too :DD
The slades you could use shoe paint & customize make em cuter. Be interesting to see. Wish they were verified ethically sourced fair trade for real from raw materials to end product with adjustable toe stops & a slight heel option. Areas for improvement, obviously.
I'm so glad that I came across your account on tiktok! I was in a really deep thought, thinking if I should buy or not, because I've never tried skating. It's very nice hearing an honest opinion! Also a small question, are the slades beginner friendly? (Sorry, English is not my first language, i hope it make sense!)
Hey!! This is such a late comment, but I'm wondering how fast you can go on these skates? I'm thinking of using these for commuting and doing DoorDash/Uber Eats deliveries, and I wanna know what I can expect in terms of how fast I can go on them through city streets. I'm trying to decide between these and an electric scooter, and whether a scooter's higher speed is worth its increase in size/weight, and having to recharge it. I'm also curious, when going uphill while wearing these, have you found it easier to skate or to walk? How much do uphill slopes tend to affect your speed and effort? You can probably tell these comments are coming from a total beginner lol. Anyway thanks so much and amazing & super informative video!!
Uhhhh it def depends on ur skating skills - i can go a little slower than a cruising bike at top speed on flat ground. Id do electric lol. Uphill is hard esp if ur gonna be carrying stuff. Its not worth the lack of stability and increased effort.
Thank you for the super informative video and discount code - just ordered my Slades!!! Sorry if you've already answered this question but where are your wheels and flower stopper from? Thanks!! 🥰
Hello! I am considering getting the slades version for transportation, but I have 0 skating experience. Would it be difficult to learn how to use these as a beginner and get good enough at it to use it for transportation?
So what you recommend is buying shoes, for example; I were to buy a pair of airforces and then send those over to Flaneurz and have them installed the little holes and thing, then buy the skates and key separately? If thats right how could I go about sending them the shoes?
Yep!! I did exactly that. And i put the final address via flaneurz when putting in an order, and they emailed me to confirm. Really good customer support.
hi thanks for the video, i am thinking of buying the custom flaneurz, do i just add a link of the shoe BEFORE i buy? or do i have to buy the shoe then send the link ?
When I ordered my customs they didn't have iconic in stock so I had to get the $100 extra plate! Also how did u order on Nike France I can't read a thing
Loved this thanks. Looking to get one or the other but still thinking is this really comfortable to walk in? With the plates and all? Does not seem like it and since im not in france i cant really try them on. Can u tell a dif between the same shoe with and with out the click in plates? Could u expand on this? Im already convinced they r good skates the walking in the shoes is ….leaving me thinking
It's comfortable! I can tell because if i step on a rock or something on the metal part then i can hear it crunch since it's a hard metal picee against the rock, but in general, nothing will get caught or anything. low key its kinda asmr satisfying to crunch on rocks lolol
@@clara.hwajoon thanks so much for ur feedback. So it that the same for both flaneurz done shoes and sladers? Or r the slades better since the sole is already done with this in mind? Im worried i send in a pair of shoes i use daily and have a new pair modified and than feel dif. I mean like in the way the sole folds when we walk. The low key asmr makes sense.
@@jessicadoe1599 You can only send in new shoes, so i'd recommend sending a shoe directly from checkout of that shoe to flaneurz. Slades and flaneurz are the same feeling. the sole still folds the same bc the hardware is only on the ball and heel of the foot, the rest of the sole is the same.
can you ship your own personal shoes to them? or do you have to send brand new ones. i want dr martens skates and i already own a pair, can i send them the pair i already have or do i have to pay for new ones?
Does anybody know some good normal skates because I’m a size 15 us and they don’t make these in my size and I just want to get into skating just because I want to get around easy
Do you know if slades or flaurez makes a different plate for wide set shoes? Would you know if it would be comfortable or unstable? Feedback would be nice if you had any. And if you don’t then where else could I find this information? Thank you!
I don't think they do.. I haven't heard of much info as it has to do with wide set feet + skate plates. I can't imagine it to make a huge difference, though, since the alignment is to the center of balance on your foot!
Nah theyre not heavier than normal skates. If anything theyre lighter since the shoe is lighter than a normal skate boot. But plates are real skate plates and real parts so theyre the same!
This skate company might be associated with Lamborghini they don’t have to advertise to make money. Their skating customers don’t sit around watching tv lol
I did a search and didn't find any other brand that makes skates with this technology, this could also be one of the reasons they are expensive, i think
What is the name of the brand ?
Flaneurz
@@RandomB00kright now the slades are 186. Instead of 300-700
wow that discount was a total lifesaver! just ordered a pair of slades for skating around in college. thank you so much for the review!

Wondering if you know if the toe stop on the flaneurz Iconic plate is adjustable/ removeable or bolt on? Images look like a bolt on.
Removable!
did you size up or get the same size when you ordered from slades? im scared that it won’t fit me but also thank you for this review it was helpful!

Inflation is hard out here 🥲🥲
I loveee the pink toe stop is it also from flanuerz? ✨
Nope! Its the moxi petal toe stop!! :)
Hi Clara thanks for the review !! do it think they are good for beginners as the first skate ?
yes i do! they're pretty affordable and since they can switch shoes i'd say they're worth it in case you do decide u like skating :)
The price is good yes ! But I meant like its ok to learn how to ride in the first time on them ? Thank you

Slates are made by flaneurz
yup, they're the more affordable version with less customization out of the box
I forgot to add on that people complain about the prices of the shoes.
Yet laptop, computers, iPhones, etc costs wayyy more expansive.
thank u sm for this!!🫶
