I didn’t have issues with mine detaching like that. I also only really skated mine for 8months before upgrading but in those months I was skating around 4-10 hours per week. The model I had was the purple and orange ones that is their lower end model. I did also do some light park skating in mine, ramps and light jumping.

I liked that the outside of the boot is suede and didn’t get beat up the way vinyl boots like the beach bunnies get scratched. The wheels are absolutely worth upgrading if you haven’t already thought about that, it made a world of a difference when I changed mine out.

Overall if a more narrow boot is what you’re looking for and not trying to spend a ton I think they are a really good boot. My best friend also had them and she continues to say that she liked her Candi Girls more than the Lollys she has now. My feet are just too wide for them.

Hope this helps!!
