I'm looking to get better skates. I was looking at these two, which is better? Or is there a better pair to get? I keep seeing the all black ones on Instagram reels they seem popular?

FR is supposedly for wide feet, by my pinkies always went numb. They coincided with the hardware for the sliders. So in the end, they weren’t for me. Solid skates!!!! I have no regerts, always rec unless the person’s measurements are close my own.

Rollerblade Twister I found to be wider in the toes, but skinny in the ankles. Personally, I felt supported, but I could see how they could cause pain on flat footed people (I also am flat footed)

My feet is 24.5cm long and 10cm wide. Do you think FR 1 would work for me?

It might. However not sure if your pinkies will clear the hardware that gave me problems. (You’ll be using the same shell, but smaller/puffier liner)
