ya know I'm not positive, I did'nt check............. I hope they do not reqiure a key, cause that sounds like it would be a pain... you might go on finishline.com & see if it has a description.

I just got 2 pair heelies retractable wheel by button NOT key. On ebay @<hidden> heeliesrus buy now boys size 13 $17.95 & Boys size 3 $19.95 S&H 18.95 :D. I snagged a pair on BF that I'm going to return.The wheel has to be removed by a key, then you have to carry it around with you & the wheels so you can either make them skates or shoes.So your either carrying 2 wheels or 2 shoe bottoms plus the key to switch them:eyepoppin I know my boys would've lost them the 1st week then they're useless!!!!:mad: JMHO :)

My son has the Heelies and he can pop the wheels in and out without the key, and he doesn't always use the caps which you do need the "key" for...

We had bought knock offs with the button and it is so hard to push the button and half the time he was stressing out because it just didn't want to work. And the shoes were so heavy.

I hope your button kind is better than the type we bought.

Buy.com had authentic Heely's for $59.99 w/free shipping... and using google checkout gets you an extra $20.00 off for a final price of $39.99 :)

The "heelies" linked above on ebay are knockoffs... they're cheaper but you may keep in mind that sometimes on ebay you get what you pay for - or in some cases you even get much less :(
