Where to get W/Heelies?

fishvixuk · 17-12-2007, 13:59

I have bought my daughter some heelies and nephew from Morrisons in Sheffield, but I can not think where to get some for my son. He is a Size 13 (age 5) and he loved them so would love to get him some for Xmas. Any suggestions PLEASE!!!!!!

Yes, Windsors (infirmary road) have them for £15 (all colours boy/girl and they have ones with wheels and flashing heels).

I would say that for a 5 yr old you are better not to go for the £50 versions. In my experience its better to learn in a cheap model then move up if he gets used to them. (their feet grow too quick aswell!!).

i saw them in sports soccer meadowhall, dont know what sizes they had in though, and im not sure if its soccer sports either lol, but im sure you know which shop i mean.

You'd be surprised the amount of places which have a disclaimer on the door, addressed to parents about heelies. They're probably fun to be played in, but not to go to Meadowhall, or elsewhere in for safety reasons!

I got some from the Moor in front of Woolworths, Bart ones with Velcro too, so thank you very much, I will have a happy little boy on Xmas. (Even though he says he only wants a real banana, and a DS.

Totally agree Heelies are a stupid idea, but if you are intent on spending boxing day in A&E they had loads in costco.

My kids had some 2 years ago before they were popular in the UK, and they could use them from then. I am not worried about them falling over in them as they can skate fine, and only wear them when I am around. Thanks for the concern.
