VNLA (Vanilla) has designed and manufactured high-end roller skates and skate components since 2005 and is the premier brand for jam and rhythm skaters. The VNLA Á La Mode is the newest addition to the VNLA collection and is the sweet ride skaters have been asking for!
The roller skate boot is made from genuine suede in 5 creamy colors inspired by your favorite sweet treats: Mocha Brown, Blue Moon, Pistachio Green, Ube Purple, and Creamsicle Orange. The boot offers structured support throughout and is lined with an ultra-comfy patterned liner to keep your feet feeling snug.
The new Jelly Roll wheels by Backspin are designed to handle rough terrain. They roll smoothly over the bumps and debris you'll encounter outdoors! The transparent urethane wheels with a nylon hub measure 62mm in diameter and have a hardness of 78A. They come complete with VNLA Reaction ABEC-9 bearings.
Sizing tip: the VNLA A La Mode boot runs approximately 1/2 size large. Half sizes should go DOWN 1/2 size as opposed to up. If your boot is a little roomy, we recommend adding a VNLA Contour Insole.
For example:
If you wear a Ladies' 8.5 shoe, order the Men's 7 (Ladies' 8-8.5).
If you wear a Men's 10.5 shoe, order the Men's 10 (Ladies' 11-11.5).
We also have a "Worry Free Guarantee" - if the skates are not a great fit just send them back to us and we'll ship you out a better size at no additional cost.

Love them!
My fiance and I both got a pair, and we're so happy with them! Pros: - Very padded and comfortable - LOVE the brown suede boot color - Feels very high quality and well-made - Cute sweets themed interior lining - Laces are better than some others I've seen - The box is also a cute ice cream shop theme, which is fun - Cost-free exchange was very easy, painless, and truly cost-free (no hidden fees or hassle), so I'd recommend purchasing from RSN - You can mix and match wheel colors! - The hardware is good quality and easy to adjust as desired - The wheels are comfortable, cute, and don't send you into orbit over sidewalk seams - The green wheels and brown boots are true to color based on images online (so much prettier in real life, honestly) Cons: - I received the wrong color wheels. The orange ones I got are definitely more of a yellow color, so be aware of that if you're a big orange fan and are considering those. I'm disappointed that I didn't get the blue ones I ordered, but I wanted to actually skate around and try them out than process another exchange. I'm sure RSN would've been happy to amend it if I brought it to their attention. - I've noticed the toe stop keeps loosening and even fell off while I was skating. I believe I figured it out, but just be aware of that if it's your first skate and you're not used to adjusting things yet! Always double check! Purchase Experience: We purchased through RSN because, as first-time roller skate owners, we were unsure about sizing and fit. I'm glad we did, because we followed the size chart inseam recommendations, and those ended up being way too small! The exchange process was quick and easy. I was able to change the color along with the size for my pair, which was exciting because it was the color I originally wanted (was out of stock in the size I ordered). I did end up with the wrong wheel color (ordered blue, got orange), but I didn't want to wait longer before getting to try them out, so I decided to keep them. I ordered them on the weekend, the order was shipped on the following Monday, and my skates arrived on the following Wednesday. If you're ordering these, get a pair true to your usual street shoe size, that was perfect for us!

Comfortable
I’ve never owned a pair of skates until now. I’m still breaking them in but they are really comfortable and I like the ankle support the high-top gives me. I’ve made minimal adjustments so far.

Best skates!
These are great skates for the money, roll smooth like butter over outdoor surfaces. Great fit and perfect if you have wide feet! Couldn't love them more! Roller Skate Nation was really helpful throughout the purchase process. Highly recommend.

Skates
I love the skates, they are very comfortable and fit great but it feels like the right skate tracks to the left and is constantly pulling towards the left, I’m wondering what I can do about it.

VNLA A LA MODE
I decided this year is the year to do the thing you’ve always wanted to do. So, I bought the skates. Customers service was top notch! Very helpful and answered all my questions! The skates run large as I’m normally a women’s 10/11 and so I ordered the men’s 9 as the chart shows and they were huge! My toe came to the stitch line so I contacted customer service and they agreed to size down. So the new size 8 arrived and they fit perfect! I would say these are definitely wide feet friendly. Can’t wait to start my skating adventure. Roller skate nation for the win! Highly recommend them!
