anyone remember these (soap shoes)

never had 'em growing up, but now as an adult I want a pair
Combine these with heelies and parkour for maximum urban mobility.

I'm guessing the black parts slide like wax? For 'grinding' without a board?
That's the gimmick, saw them around the 90s skater culture and a bit after as I recall.

Immediately thought of Sonic Adventure 2 lol I've never met anyone who actually owned a pair (I don't think they ever made it to Europe but I might be wrong)

I still want a combo shoe of soap shoes + heelies. I think someone makes a kit to make your own heelies.

They are also called Grindshoes. I also never had one of these but I am also thinking about buying a pair.

you can be a fruitbooter without the fruit

Now as an adult you can't afford using them because you will hurt yourself, badly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Oh yes, I remember reading an article about them. They caused many severe injuries and I mean really many.

As an orthopedic surgeon who wants a bigger yacht, I think this is a great idea

my older brother owned a pair of these so obviously they were the shit.
but realistically if I got a pair now I would simply give myself broken bones and brain damage.

Heard aboutbem cause Sonic but never saw them irl. They seem like a bad idea and I skateboarded

Every once in a while, as an out of shape guy in my 30s, I think about buying myself a pair of heelys.
Was never a skater, never really had much interest in them as a kid, but something about the idea of rolling around in Costco while I do my grocery shopping appeals to me.
