An amazing skate. I have wide feet and was worried. My foot is about 25.2 and I have the 8.5. Could be a little wider, but after a 19mi skate, my feet still feel great!These skates are definitely a whole level in performance and comfort over my powerslide zoom 3x110. I would want to stop in those by 12mi or so. I will definitely get to marathon distance this summer with these skates.I have used without the cuff, but honestly would probably only use on a closed course with smooth roads. The cuff has been comfortable even on longer skates.The skates are well ventilated from sole and upper, and keep feet fairly dry. They look, feel, and work as good as you would hope for the price. They really are something special in person, and seem to be holding up well. You are going to want a place to put these where you can look at them.... oftenI am Impressed with the performance of this inline skates at high speeds for the price,they feel very stable going 15 to 25 mph with the 125 mm hydrogen wheels,but I recommend having protection because it's turn rate and stoping require more practice if you are used to 80mm wheels.A little on the expensive side but they are really nice.Love these skates. I thought the size was going to be too big but it was perfect. I am a size 13 but I got a size 13.5.Light portableGreat rollerblades, but poor client service, Had mine but tried to contact the seller as they didn't fit because the size chart was not accurate ?and still haven't seen a response.I have several additional speed/fitness skates with a Powerslide Swell City 3x125 and a Rollerblade Speedmachine 4x110. I purchased the E2 125 pro for the flexibility to switch the boot and for the long frame size with the 3x125mm wheels relative to the Powerslide which has a much shorter frame. I was concerned about sizing but glad I used the measurements and added a half size above the recommendation rather than a full size. My MP of 26.3 put me between 8-8.5. I got the size 9 and it is perfect- speed skates need to be snug and these take some time to get into but once the heel falls in they are great. These are very padded inside and quite comfortable. Really a very nice skate for either long distances or for speed skating. Well made from top to bottom. highly recommended.
