Sneakers on wheels can make in the eyes of the child a serious competition to roller skates, skateboard or even a bicycle. After all, there is something magical about this, as in everything new, which can not be said about the other already familiar objects. Children's sneakers on wheels can be a great gift for a birthday or any other holiday.
A distinctive feature of these sneakers is the presence of a special groove, located on the sole in the heels, into which the rollers are attached.

Similar footwear is produced not only for children, but also for adults. Among its amateurs, even a new kind of sport, called steppraiding, was formed.
