Those were my first skates, ever. I wore the wheel down so much, they had holes in them and had sharp edges. My mom had to throw them away. My second pair were white vinyl boots with red and blue stripes. I'm 2 months shy of 51 and still skating.
First skates were the “stick your shoes into” kinds. Then moved up to white boots with metal wheels. Then clay (I think 🤔?) wheels. Then urethane, wow!!
These were my first rollerskates in New York City and we used to have to share them with all the kids in the neighborhood I remember keeping tabs on my skate key😂. I just started skating again last year and I am 60 years old.
@@Eden-rd2tc google them - they're a french skate company that specialise in converting brand name sneakers into skates with detachable plates, so you can take the skate assembly off, and walk away in your Cons / Nikes. They're not quite the same as old strap-to-your-shoe skates, but as close as it gets nowadays. They're not cheap either, but you can send them your favourite style of shoe, and they'll turn them into custom skates for you.
These are considered antiques now huh. Feel a little older now. Still remember in the 90s we got these types during school for activities. Thanks for the old memories
I bet with the modern day tech available to us now that design could be recreated for a more functional version. Also I had the same kind of skates as a hand me downs in the 80’s, my dad replaced the ankle strap with an old skinny belt he punched holes into. Love that you tried this out😁
I was going to say the same thing and figured someone else had the same thought. What’s cool about these is you can wear whatever shoe design you want. With Velcro and elastic you could even come up with a simple slip in design.
I'm a 93 baby and I had something similar to this! Honestly I wish someone would rework this idea of making something that you can strap onto any shoe. Flaneurz is cool but not quite what I wish was out there!
I'm in my 20s now but I remember my first pair of skates as a kid were the 90s version of these! Clip-on and adjustable to your foot length, but made of hard plastic. Honestly I'd love to try something like that again!
Those were fun but so uncomfortable lol. I had them as a child but never actually skated enough to learn more than getting pulled down the driveway by family
Here in the UK in the 60s and 70s we had similar skates, but with rubber wheels and a lace-up leather fastening over the toes. The only thing I ever had as a child that was 'top of the range', was a new pair of "Warwick Flyers" each christmas (the crappy road surfaces here ate them up fast!). 56 now, I've just bought my first pair of new skates in about 40 years, and loving your channel!
You are awesome! I stumbled across your vids a few weeks ago, I'm 51, got me some new quad skates (I also have inline figure skates, I'm an adult figure skater) I'm loving the comeback of roller skating and the whole vibe...keep on rollin'!
These were my first skates too. I remember wearing holes in the wheels. I used to loop the key onto the strap. The skates are long gone but I still have my skate key. Try loosening the stuck bolt with a little WD40. Spray it on and let it soak in a little. By the way, if you want to see a great skate routine on those old skates, watch "It's Always Fair Weather" with Gene Kelly.
I had these when I was a kid. I also cannibalized some to make a skateboard back in the 1960s. (A lot of us did). I loved this video! I am glad you took the look back and discovered what it was like for those of us from generations past!!
I recently got into roller skating. When I told my grandma about it, she told me about how she used to skate when she was young and in Costa Rica. I think it’s cool that she was into what I’m into right now!
About the position of the rear wheels: there are plenty of illustrations and surviving skates from the early 1900s showing the rear wheels placed under the heel where we're used to them (which is necessary for certain spins), so my guess is that these particular ones might have been marketed towards beginners and occasional skaters, and so made to be more stable and a bit easier?
Here's what you need to do: Go get yourself a strap type dog leash the same width as the old leather straps, take a few measurements and with a hot knife, make some replacement straps. Myself, I'm wanting to retrofit modern skateboard wheels onto the axles of the pair I have, thus modernizing them.
I had these skates in the 60s.. I never liked the strap rubbing on my ankles So I wore mine with my brogans..a lace up boot. Kinda like timberlands now
I learned to skate in that type of roller skate in the '70s! Mine had red leather straps (on the foot and strap). Mine laced up at the front though, so they were easier and quicker to put on. They were pretty fast too! 😊 They were really great.😁 I used to come home from figure skating lessons, and practice the same things on my roller skates lol. Ahh, the "good old days" in Scotland 😉🏴💖
I saw a basketball court and tennis court. Would you do a video on alternate places to skate if you don't have a skating rink or park available? (I understand that some places don't like skates/skateboards & have rules against them...) Also, I've been told that tennis courts are bad for skating because they aren't smooth but bumpy. What do you think?
I’m now 57 years old and getting back into skating haven’t been on skates in 35 years. These were my very first skates I was given for my 5th birthday. A few hints, the back portion of the clamps should be just covering the knuckle of your big toe. That puts the front truck directly under the balls of your feet. Lube the bearings with motor oil. These are dry bearings and do require occasional oiling. You can use 3 in 1 sewing machine oil as well. If you van get some mole skin, use that to line the heel and clamps to help protect your shoes. And the coolest thing to try is film yourself at night on concrete and wash the sparks fly.
I've been a rollerblader as a kid and I've been trying to switch to roller skates. It's interesting how you said the wheel further back was more stable like inline skates. I've found that a big issue for me switching, I find that it seems so easy to fall forwards or backwards in roller skates. Also, you can get adjustable rollerblades for kids because they grow so fast :)
I remember we had to share those old skates, hence the skate key. The skates seemed pretty smooth to us at the time, they weren't cumbersome at all. We had hours of fun .
I have a pair like this from the 1920s, but they're too small for my feet. They were made for adults, but for some reason over time people's feet have been getting bigger. Either way, finding these antique roller skates is what started my love for skating
So I need some advice. I'm going to be buying my first ever pair of roller skates really soon as in within the next few days or so. The pair that I'm looking at is the Rosa pair by Rookie Skates. Before I buy them, would you know of them and/or recommended them or even know anyone who has tried them out in the past?
I love ur vids! Also when the theme song of Planet Rolled Skate but all I saw was a black screen but what ever amazing video! My dad skated in India and he had a iron one like that but he wore is bare foot and he used to get cuts. I skate too now its a family thing😁
I was able to try skating in these when I was a kid 😍 My friend’s dad owned a pair, and no one skated among his kids, so he told my friend I could borrow them for a few weeks 😍
Two weekends back I found some Antique skates I bought . I line them I too learned to skate on metal wheels . I’m 51 I’ll be 52 this year 2021 I still skate ! Love it
What a memory charger. I grew up using these skates. Eventually the toe grabbers would make a wedge on your shoes but every little girl related. I was 14 when I got a boot pair with pom poms. I thought I was the cats meow. Dad would oil the bearings periodically which made the wheels spin smoother.

For your next video you should do a moxi rainbow riders review and test them out and give your opinion on how they work for a cheap skate 👍 like so Indy can see this 🌈
Awesome video Indy!! I had always wondered about these skates 😄 Can someone create a modern high quality version of these that don't cost a fortune!!! 😆 Please????

Thankyou so much for sharing this Awesome memory! WOW!!! It was really amazing what you were able to do on them!!! ❤ ❤
Oh my god !! I'm literally just starting skating and I'm learning on these ! I'm on a super budget and found them on a market 🤩 To be honest I'm surprised about how well it's going and seeing this video was super fun! 💕
I had these same skates back in the day! They were inexpensive and all the kids had them… so fun to see you trying them out and also enjoyed the various fixes for the broken strap! Love your channel! Thank you!
I had something similar when I was very young. The top front was the leather not metal and I would put it over shoes. I could have also adjust the lenght if my sister wanted to borrow them. I remember loving skating and cruising around the barrio :D
I am so glad when you upload new videos. You are the best !!! I have started restating for something to do other than walk. I am a clumsy girl but you are my inspiration. One day you and I will skate together!! You are the best Indy.....thanks
Indy I love to watch you do your stuff. I cringe when you falll...been watching you for awhile. I like the simple and easy stuff too! Rock on girl, pretty sure I have seen you doing amazing things.
I'm 25. And I've had this exact similar to this roller skates in my childhood. It had a tie up thing too around the toe to tighten it from the front.. A belt to wrap around the ankle..When I was 6. And these are so much fun.
I roller skated from 1973, still have the skates, Hammaco figure skates. My daughter now has them, we have just bought her her first pair of Moxi skates in the UK. Skating was my life, getting the panther skates. Xx
Hey Indy😁 Love the video👍 I was wondering if you could show us your roller skate/roller blade collection??😍 It would be so amazing, to see all of your skates😌
Well you can watch her im moving to nyc video. She had to leave some skates behind. I myself have ice skates. Im currantly in the market for rollerskates chicogos no.
This was such a great video. I loved it so much. You absolutely killed it and made those antique skates look brand new again!! 🙌🏽💞🦋🛼 I love your channel so much. Keep up the amazing work. Idk why but maybe a "What's in my skate bag?" Video?? Just a suggestion I love seeing peoples skate gear. I also wanted to let you know that you're the reason I started skating. I really appreciate you. 💞
I have a question, I'm thinking about buying roller skates but im on a budget of 150 euro's, I found 'roces' but im not sure if they are good enough, what do you think about them?
OMG I had these when i was a kid...except mine had a lace up bit around the front so you didnt need a key... i went everywhere is these... I actually think they are more vintage than antique... I'm only 51...
Don't know why I cannot find such detachable skates new, no one makes them anymore. Not these kind that can attach to any shoe. This is something that can be put in a backpack and makes a convenient way to get around. Surprised no one makes a modern version. May have to get a pair of these antiques off ebay.
Awwwe I wore converse with my prom dress too!!! 💜💜💜 back in my jam skating days! Taking my niece skating tonight! She’s not been with me before so she in for a treat! Aunt Kaycee is a beast on 8wheels lol

Modern wheels actually have different sizing on the bearings
She’s at the park i grew up next to lol 😂 wiiild

OMG I had these when i was a kid...except mine had a lace up bit around the front so you didnt need a key... i went everywhere is these... I actually think they are more vintage than antique... I'm only 51...
I’ve got a pair and I actually love them!
Don't know why I cannot find such detachable skates new, no one makes them anymore. Not these kind that can attach to any shoe. This is something that can be put in a backpack and makes a convenient way to get around. Surprised no one makes a modern version. May have to get a pair of these antiques off ebay.
I actually love how loud they are 😂
Btw, the name of the skate, Hawthorne is actually a place, my grandma lives there with my other relatives, kinda cool right?
Awesome!
My grandma had Douglas Snyders she gave me as a kid that I learned how to roller skate in. They were the best skates ever!
HIIIII IM EARLY WOW THE LIGHTING IN THE WALL LOOKS DO COOOOL
