Business 2 Blogger: Heelys Campaign

This is my first project with Business 2 Blogger, a site that matches businesses with bloggers. Heelys are wheeled shoes that come in several different sneaker styles. I decided on the Sassy, a light purple glitter and stud, Converse style shoe.



I love how these shoes look, but I am absolutely dreadful when it comes to rolling in them. The Heelys site has several videos on the tricks one can do while wearing their shoes, but the only feat I have been able to accomplish is propelling myself forward while clinging to the kitchen counters in an attempt not to fall backward and slam my head on the floor. When I'm not attempting to roll, I just stomp around like a sparkly-footed elephant. Heelys are for all ages, but it is a pity that coordination is not included. I would even pay extra. Thankfully, taking the wheels in and out is a snap, so I will be wearing these shoes sans wheels. On a side note, these shoes are as safe as roller skates, so a helmet and adult supervision are both good ideas when it comes to kids in Heelys.


Besides my lack of skill, my only complaint is the sizing. I found the website a little confusing, and ended up ordering the wrong size the first time. The shoes, also, run a little wide, so my shoes are starting to crease in spots. As for style, these shoes may be a bit over the top, but that's what I love about them.
