    hi chelsea! i’ve been following you on instagram and i got these 135 boots thanks to this review, and even though online it says production time is up to 12 weeks now, it’s really great to hear that it didn’t take too long for yours to come in!!

    Thanks for the review! I appreciate your point of view. I personally think both skates are awesome. I wouldn't knock on nylon plates so much. Nylon plates perform extremely well with more than twice your weight - and are lighter. I have a 350lb-ish friend that skates daily on Lolly's and has for years. That is a testament to Riedell - they make a quality boot. For me the big difference is the fit and feel between the boots. The Lolly is more comfortable and ready to skate right out of the box without any mods. I also feel a bit more confident in it.

    Riedell is a great brand. They’ve been around forever, and good suede can take a lot of abuse before you see any wear.

    If the protectors are not washable, put them in a freezer bag and then in the freezer for at least 24 hours to kill the bacteria that are causing the odor. You do the same thing with running shoes. The parts should of course be dry beforehand!

    I really enjoyed your review. I’ve had my 135 tan boots for about 3 years now and they’re looking really nice still. I do wish I ordered mine with an adjustable toe stop though (I need to ask someone on how to change that lol). I have a friend who works at a skate shop, and she did tell me that the moxi boots do have a double suede lining although they do have that fabric overlay more-so for aesthetics. A boot that doesnt have the double suede would be the boardwalk boot from suregrip. Although, they are practically the same boot, the upcharge is more-so for the brand because both models come with the same powerdyne plate, double suede lining and even come from the same factory.

    • @ChelseaViroz
      @ChelseaViroz  4 роки тому +2

      ah okay thanks for the insight! i’m under the impression the inside lining wasn’t leather even under the decorative fabric. the Lolly isn’t as stiff as the 135. the Jack is stiffer though, so maybe it’s lined with leather. you can upgrade the linings when you customize them too so i’m not sure when they come with leather lining, maybe just the jack boot? I’ve heard from someone who used to work in the factory that the Moxis are made slightly less quality to make up for the upcharge of all the fancy colors (if you ordered the 135 boot from Riedell you’d have to pay $100 for a custom color). that’s something i was looking at when i was originally gonna order the Lolly and I ended up just getting the black boot and avoiding and further charges lol. the only upcharge i paid was for my plate is in reference to getting an aluminum instead of a nylon. Nylon plate is standard on both, but I upgraded to an aluminum plate. my total was $40 more than a pair of Lollys and i upgraded $170 for the Reactor Neo plate (so that’s a deal!). I know Riedell manufactures Moxi, but Riedell is more affordable in their packages, just with less fun colors. (also, Moxi charges $100 for a wide size, but with Riedell that’s free). it’s a give and take depending on what you want! if I keep park skating I might end up wanting to try a Jack boot. and nice to know your boots are holding up!! i’m looking forward to having mine for years. i learned to opt for the adjustable toe stop through much research and videos before ordering lol! i believe your plate has to be compatible and there’s two types (one uses a washer and nut, and mine doesn’t). maybe your plate accommodates the first one i mentioned

      Wondering if these are stiffer around the ankle than the lollies?

    • @ChelseaViroz
      @ChelseaViroz  4 роки тому +1

      Heather Beardwood hi there!! yes these are a TAD bit stiffer but nowhere near a Jack boot stiffness. they don’t feel stiff at all, but if you’re comparing to a Lolly the ankle holds up a little better and the tongue is a tad bit thicker as well. this is because it’s lined with leather on the inside instead of the lining of the Lollys. i’ve researched this and compared to friends skates and can confirm that the Lollys do not come lined with leather on the inside, they are visibly thinner than my Riedells but by one suede lining. I’ve been doing aggressive park skating and they are holding up so well and i can see in comparison to my friends Lollys that they hold up a little better by the ankle crease areas, but are virtually still not as supportive as Jack boot or other material skates. they’re gonna be long lasting and they clean up well even after taking a beating. however, if i keep aggressive park skating i might want to get a second skate set with a stiffer ankle support because when i practice jumps or new tricks i can’t imagine these would protect from an ankle injury

    Thanks for the review!! Have you noticed if the tongue slips on these boots? The tongue on my Lolly's starts sliding to the side after about 30 minutes of skating. It's pretty annoying but that is really the only issue I have with the Lollys. I'm curious if the 135 has the same issue? If not, I'm totally sold :) My first pair of skates I ordered from Riedell directly about 6 years ago, it was the Citizen 111. Great beginner boot with lots of ankle support. And affordable! Probably quite similar to the build of the Moxi Beach Bunny (but about $20 cheaper). The only problem with the Citizen 111 versus the Beach Bunny is the color. Citizen only comes in black and white. The Moxi Beach Bunny's come in such cute colors, they're very stylish. Might be worth the extra $20 to get a Bunny. In any case, Riedell makes a nice skate for sure.

    • @ChelseaViroz
      @ChelseaViroz  4 роки тому +1

      the tongue doesn’t slip for me much once it’s tied. i skate for an hour or two and it’ll have barely moved. the boot of the Riedell citizen and Beach bunny do look alike! (i also believe you can pay a custom fee to get the citizen boot in a custom color). the main difference is the quality of the plates. i’ve seen some questionably defective photos posted to reddit of the beach bunny plate since it’s made in China vs the high quality powerdyne plates you can get from Riedell. either is a good supporting boot! I just prefer suede boots. hope this helped!

    This video was super informative. I haven't gotten any skates yet but I never knew about cleaning the bearings. Where do you learn about skate care like that? Same with information about plates? I find that the only place I'm able to find info is the r/rollerskating reddit but its filled with so much talk about Moxi's skates.
    And I also wanted the Jade color! What made you decide on the black color?

    • @ChelseaViroz
      @ChelseaViroz  4 роки тому +1

      I learned everything from Reddit, UA-cam, and instructions that came with my bearing cleaner. The plates I didn’t know anything about until right before I ordered my skates someone I follow on Instagram had cracked their Nylon plates, that’s when I started looking into it and I saw a recommendation that if you’re near 200 lbs or planning on skating aggressively you should upgrade to metal plates. i figured it would save me money in the long run to start with good plates instead of upgrading later. and yes! the reddit has been slammed with Moxi talk even though they’ve created a designated place for that.. hopefully it gets more organized or more people keep posting general skating stuff. I chose the black because I was indecisive and impatient.. I knew I liked jade but I couldn’t get myself to commit so I decided to get a plain color since it would ship faster anyways. my plan is to set aside money every month so i can get a second pair of skates in jade and make them my park setup with blocks and stuff (changing my wheels everyday has gotten annoying!)
