For those ordering from Amazon, Please try to stay with the main colors of White and Black skates. If you choose the "fun" colors, you need to realize that they are more for the recreational skater. If you are in StarSkate, you are no longer a recreational skater and require skates that provide more support for what your skater will be doing.
