Can you skate on the sidewalks with these skates?

Don't see why not. I got them for my granddaughter to skate in her long blacktopped driveway.

Yes she does. I ordered her another set for the skating rink. She is learning.

You can use the wheels on these skates outdoors on smooth asphalt or concrete however, once they are used outdoors, most skating rinks do not allow them to be used on the wood flooring afterwards.

They could, but not advised. The wheels are polyurethane, however they are soft and will wear out very fast, and be too tacky to enjoy on pavement. On a wood floor, they are great... Not advised for outdoor.

Absolutely! My kids both used these skates. They are well made and can be used indoors or outdoors!

not super well, the wheels can slip a little bit, however, I simply put some grip tape that you can buy here on Amazon or at a local hardware store and it solved the problem. It works great outdoors on the sidewalks though without the tape

I would day "NO." They work on ice and snow. Other surfaces not so well in my experience.

Rink skates are meant to be used inside at a skating rink. Sidewalk skates are meant for outdoor use. They are a little tougher. You will have to ask the owners of the skating rink if they allow skates that have been worn outside, as little rocks and debris will damage their floors.

I wouldn't buy these, the bearings were shot when ours arrived. The skates are very shaky to ride on. It costs more to fix replace the bearings than the skates are probably worth. It pays to buy local, directly from a rink.

Wherever there is ice (no matter how thick or thin)...the cleats will work. Most of the time the lakes are snow covered and the cleats are not needed. But, if you really want to feel secure...put them on. Trust me...you will remain vertical.

My daughter has worn these inside our house (wood and tile floors) and at the skating rink. She has never worn them outside, but the wheels seem hard enough that you could if you had the right surface.

Both of my children have a pair of this brand of skates and neither one of them has ever taken them to the rink. They wear them inside the house sometimes but mostly outside on the sidewalks and street. Neighbor kids have worn them so they have gotten a lot of use for the past year! I imagine the wheels would be better if they were rink only but we didn't purchase them for that. We just wanted them to have a good skate and also had something to do OUTSIDE! :-)

We have not used them outside. Only at the roller rink. They are very good quality so I think you could use them on the sidewalk/driveway.

Yes they are outdoor wheels. My daughter skates outside everyday after school and they have held up nicely.

Both my grandchildren, aged 18 mos. and 2 yrs. have no trouble riding on sidewalks. Wheels are the same size as their big sister's scooter. They love their flybikes. And the bikes are so lightweight that the kids can lift them up and turn them around or even carry them by themselves.

Yes, I brought them last year for my granddaughter and she has skated outdoors most of the time. They are tough, fit well and a good value for the price. Buy 1 size larger than their shoe size at least.

These are rink skates, not for outdoor. For outside skates you will need a harder compound of wheels and bearings specially made for outside skating.

Hi Elizabeth, Yes you can! We wrap one of the ties around one of the wheels and fold it up when not in use so you can walk with a bigger stride.
