Oh wow, I *absolutely love* that the brake and brake bolt/shaft come not on the skate by default, so you don't need to find a spacer or properly sized axel.
I can’t wait to watch you do a front flip on those bad boys. Most of the Impala colorways are actually lifted from different TRS lightning models. The blue boots with white frames and pink wheels are lifted directly from my channel icon which is the original “Rollerblade Bladerunner” skate from the late 80s.

They’ve updated the website. There’s a whole shopping section for skates with larger sizes, but the color range isn’t as wide. They have plain black, and grey with electric blue detail skates both up to a women’s size 14, and a kindof violet with pink and white details skate but it’s in stock only in women’s 5 &14 as of right now
I am so confused… I am returning to online skating after 20 yrs and there is soooo much hate for Impala skates on Reddit and even some fb groups… I come here and the reviews are fantastic
I feel a purple would be cool! With orange maybe slap a black razors cuff on #90's. Glad you grabbed some I really had fun with my girlfriends. And yeah I was so impressed with the effort and the leaflets they may be skateboard based but you can see they really are trying and taking it seriously! I watched my girl with her booklet in the corner of a park just reading and practicing because she wanted to learn at her own speed. I was super impressed. Oh and I was wondering how long you could hold out before you get the drill out!
I originally bought the black cults and while they fit...they always "felt big on my feet". After being gifted some of the second skin liners and having WAY too much room in the boot, I made the leap to downsize shell size. Glad I did, feels much better. Kind of butt-hurt I didn't buy the smaller shell impalas so I could put on the moonshine souls. Alas, it will be ok.
@@iRollerboot oh. Trial and not exactly error. Didn't know if maybe one was for high performance comfort and the other plush caddy like comfort. The Impala sizing is super wild.
eff me.. this is the original roces boot impala from like mid to late 90s XD minus the PhatAF Hblock that we all somehow wanted to fit but ended up with skates in like 500$ range :D
I was just wondering if there have ever been any blaze orange (safety orange/fluorescent orange/hi-vis orange/whatever) boots. Might look good with a safety vest 😅🦺
@@iRollerboot Oooh! If you remember, let me know! My bf's fave color is pink and I'd love to have some representation of him on my skates! Maybe get a little positive energy from them to land tricks.
Do you think you’ll try and put on the cult soulplates and cuffs on these? Would be a cool option for people wanting varied color ways for their cults.
The thing with sizing, i kinda them having smaller sizing. That is as a women with small feet trying to find hard boot inlines is very difficult, most hard boots are targeted for larger man feet. so i would assume that impala are targeting people with smaller feet as it is a niche-er communities.
@@iRollerboot the dye may bleed under them, out the heat mat take them off but it be worth a try cause if they come off then it'll all just be the same color so win win!
I had to come back and watch this. Been thinking about the pink and then a hot pink leotard outfit to match. Why no mondo point in is video? Drink Ben. I know is early but damn I expect a mondo point in all my skate video reviews 😂😂😂
So xtremeinn is legit? They have by far the cheapest price right now on the new Feinberg Aeons, but I didn't trust them. If you got your product with no issues and say it's legit, I think I'm going to order the Feinbergs from them. Catching up on your videos that I haven't seen by the way. Lol
@@iRollerboot thanks so much. Appreciate the reply. I was a bit sketched about them. I don't mind waiting an extra few weeks if it means saving basically $65.
Every one chill out I got this ! Remove the frames ,an liners may b cuffs trow in ur new soul plates that u got on ur cults the razor cuffs an liners an boom 💥 u got a flavor cults LOL
If you rotate the outside spacers out and the inside spacers down they can fit 80mm rockered, might be a fun experiment.
Just bought these the yesterday, went skating today after getting some pads and wrist guards, and I love them!
how long did they take to come??
I bought them in a skate shop in Kansas City. Can't remember the name.

💯💯
Sublime green dye look awesome
Man Thank you so much . I’m 8 1/2 usa men’s size and I order 11 women’s size . They fit me so good . Thank thank you for your advice
Hot pink, hell yes! 🤩
I was going to suggest pastel purple but hot pink would look awesome.
Omg! Stoked to watch this!!
♥️♥️
13:37 video length was not a mistake 😆

Nostalgia overload bro, went from Rollerblade Lightning TRS to ROCES Impala 62's in the mid 90's!

Do an Ombre dip dye -- Hot pink to stock white. Pink toe to white back, or flipped. Or do a retro wave Hot pink to teal or purple.

Their quad skates are apparently made with unsafe plates but their inline skates don't seem to perform as badly from what I've read.

I like that we are the same shoe size helps me so much!!
Great video. Keep it up!
Is it a smooth and fast roll? Or do they feel more like beginner / kids blades that barely move
They feel pretty amazing tbh. The roll doesn’t feel overly cheap.
Great Review
I don't care what color u dye them... as long as u make them glow in the dark also. I want a pair... mens size 12
I'm curious why the different size cults. Different feel with different liners? Is the Impala liner better than the stock cult liner?

MINT dye it MINT! i would want the white ones the color is awesome.
LOVE me some mint.
Me too but I’m waaay to late for razor sl mint model so can’t wait to see the dye clip!
I was just wondering if there have ever been any blaze orange (safety orange/fluorescent orange/hi-vis orange/whatever) boots. Might look good with a safety vest 😅🦺
Bill was just talking about dying them orange. It's a possibilty! Hope you're well my friend!!
I wish those pink wheels came in aggressive sizes! I'd totally rock them!
💯 I’m trying to remember those pink wheels that were out a while back. 🤔
@@iRollerboot Oooh! If you remember, let me know! My bf's fave color is pink and I'd love to have some representation of him on my skates! Maybe get a little positive energy from them to land tricks.
I think I found them! Were you thinking of Gawdz wheels? I found two different pink Gawdz wheels. Showed them to my bf and he likes one of them!
I'm a bit surprised that men and women shoe sizes are not measured using the same scale.
I agree. Just like Imperial/Metric >__
Do you think you’ll try and put on the cult soulplates and cuffs on these? Would be a cool option for people wanting varied color ways for their cults.
I'm for sure putting the soul plates on at some point. Not sure about the cuffs just yet.
Hey do you know how much they weight ? :)
Hi, do you know how much they weight ? I can't find any information about Impala inline lightspeed skates weight 🤔🤔🤔
are these true to size...I wear a women's size 12, should I buy my regular size in the skates...
I vote for dying them mint and purple.
Mint green or baby blue!
These are just rebranded Rollerblade Lighting TRS from, like, 1992
And they are dope.

Not you putting the wherl in wrong with the black faving the other way 😢😂😂😂
You should dye them black 😂
lmao that would be hilarious. I'm thinking I'm going to experiment with pulling polka-dot stickers on the prior to dying.
@@iRollerboot the dye may bleed under them, out the heat mat take them off but it be worth a try cause if they come off then it'll all just be the same color so win win!
They have a black version
I just can't do it with Impala. I miss the 90's, but not that aspect of the neon colors.

Black
Seafoam Green.
Army Green or Sandy Beige
A “sand” was honestly crossing my mind.

only thing is my new moonshine souls wont fit on this larger boot :'(

I know right.
This got me wondering if there exists Inlines made entirely of beef or something
