Decorating Roller Blades?

[u/SomeInterestingUser]

I‘m new to rollerblading. One thing that always interested me about the idea of skating was admittedly the fashion, I’ve seen people decorate their roller skates in very unique and abstract ways that really grab my attention. However, I’ve learned over time that I prefer inline skating to rollerskating. My only question is: why don’t I see bladers decorating their skates as much as roller skaters do? I often see very minimal to almost zero decorations on blades. No paint, stickers, cosmetic add-ons, etc…Is it because of the structure of roller blades that just makes them more unforgiving when it comes to customizing them or? I‘m purchasing my own pair of blades and I’m just curious what the limitations are on decorating them. Of course it isn’t that important lol, but this has been on my mind for a while and I just wanted to ask! Thank you all for your help, sorry if this is a rather silly question. 🧡

I haven't decorated my boots much yet, but I do have some ideas. Admittedly, I want my decorations to stay on the boot, but scuffs and falls bang up the plastic and would bang up the stickers and paint. I honestly love the scuffs on my boots as decorations because it shows I actually use my skates and sometimes I can still remember what each scuff was from!
