I have 3 pairs of Chayas myself (Melrose Lavender, Deluxe Latte & Melrose Deluxe No War) and I agree. All 3 boots are pretty much the same. They are all well-padded & comfortable. All 3 have 62mm 78A wheels and are good for both indoors and outdoors. The only noticeable differences are the plates, toe stops, and wheels. My plain Melroses came with the plastic plate, fixed toe stop, and flat edge wheels, while the Deluxes came with metal plates, adjustable toe stops (nuts), and rounded edge wheels. Neither is really better than the other, it's all skater preference.
Another advantage of the Shari plate (on the Melrose Elite) is that they’re compatible with the Chaya sliders. It’s actually the same plate as on their park skates, like the Jump, Karma and Kismet (Barbiepatins), only on the Elite it’s pink (only on the dusty rose and sherbet lime, on the love is love it’s a regular black plate). The Elites actually make for a pretty good (beginner) park skate!
All skates can be used inside or outside, it’s how u set them up that determines which is best for the skates ur using. I’d say heeled skates are better for beginners (unless ur looking to park skate or derby then I believe flat are better) if u want to skate outside the bigger and softer the wheels the better, Ull also want a toe stop. For inside skating Ull want smaller harder wheels, doesn’t have to be the hardest tho, if they’re very hard a beginner will probably find them too slippy. And if ur wanting to jam Ull want jam plugs instead of toe stops. I’m lazy and don’t like changing my set ups depending on wether I’m going outside or staying in so I have multiple pairs of skates set up for what I want to use em for.
Oh ur welcome, I am an ambassador for GHSkates but I’m only going to recommend them to ppl looking for a higher end skate, I’d never recommend them to someone jus starting out if they’re not sure they’re going to continue or if someone says they’re on a budget I’ll always recommended Chaya.
6:50 oh my god, i'm watching as a canadian and i heard 40lb difference between those two skates!! it took me a while to realise, duh UK 40£ 😄😄 thank you for your reviews, they help immensely!!
I love the pink and blue elite colors so much 😭 but for real This is so helpful because so many people recommend Chayas, and at a first glance they have so many options ! Thank you for breaking these 2 models down
I have both too. My Chaya Elites will be here tomorrow! Can't wait! 😄 I do really like my Chaya Deluxe's, except that they are too big for my feet. I don't have the control I need to really skate well in them. I may sell them...I don't know! Mine are turquoise, and I really love the aesthetic of them!
Yes my amber were a little bigger than I’d normally choose I did get used to them tho but I got the right size in my elegies and they’re a much better fit
How are the elites? Im currently deciding on whether i should get the deluxe latte(which is at least 50 euro cheaper) or the elite blue angels --which i find gorgeous but way too pricey for a first pair! In one site i found that the elites were much lighter for some reason? Very curious..
@@theprettygoodgatsby Well, I went down a size, hoping that they would fit properly, but they're a tad too small. I can skate in them for a little while, but then, my toes start hurting. 😢 I'm really bummed, because they are good skates, and they feel great when I put them on. Plus, they have the nylon plate, so they are a lot lighter than the Deluxes. So, I guess Chaya's aren't the skates for me. I gave my turquoise pair to my niece. She had never worn a pair of skates in her life, until then. She loves them so much, she skates in them every day! They are still holding up after almost two years of constant wear and tear. Hope this helps! 😊
Hey you! thanks for this video! when you would have to decide which one of those would you rather buy for someone who wants to do a bit dancing and crusing and maybe sooooometimes a bit tricks`?? thanks!!
Thank you for this 😚 I've just placed order for Melrose Deluxe same color! You help made me feel I made the right choice for my first pairs. Anyway, I wonder about the bolt on toe stop. Would any brands work on them?
Yes as long as they’re bolt on I don’t think the brand makes a difference to it’s compatibility. Have u got ur new skates now? sorry for the late reply. I hope ur loving them
Hiya, what made you try on the Melrose but not use them? I'm trying to decide between the Melrose in Lavender and the Melrose Elite and I'm struggling with the £70 price difference.
I'd love to hear what you think of the Neon wheels if you end up getting them at some point. I've been thinking of getting them, but can't find any reviews. Thank you for your videos they're always fun and informative.
@@RhianChambers Ohhh that makes so much sense! And they'd look so lovely with your skates, they're already so pretty. I hope they make them in the colors you want, and if not, you could always have another wheel-dying adventure. =3
ugh I'm dying to get the Love is Love elites but they're sold out literally EVERYWHERE. I'm getting impatient so I'm tempted to just get the pink Elites, even though I like the color of the Cobalt deluxes better :(
I got Chaya Melrose Elites and I noticed while tightening/loosening the trucks that it looks like the back nut on the kingpin goes down a lot further than the front when the trucks seem to be the same tightness. I feel like the back kingpin might be longer? Have you experienced this? Or am I just crazy and I'm tightening the back one more than the front?
Do you prefer the pink chayas in the video over the Chaya Sweet Lavender Skates? I couldn't find any shops selling the lavander ones :(( does it differ in padding?
You must really be into skates! :) And how does Chaya Melrose Deluxe compare to Tempish Nessie Star? I'm a beginner skater, and I'm considering buying either of them. I'd appreciate hearing your opinion! Thank you! :)
Hello, could you help me picking up the correct size of these skates? I'm about to buy the Elite ones, but I'm not sure about how they fit. Did you pick your effective shoe size, or maybe one size bigger/smaller? :)
I picked what would work out to be my actual size, I recommend looking at the mondopoint site as that’s what Chaya themselves recommended for me 🥰 I hope that helps 💜
ordered a size EU 40 which is supposed to be according to the sellers size chart a womens us 8.5 but when i google size conversion chart it says EU is size US womens 9.,,i hope the 40 fit ..i am a size 8.5 womens us
Hi, can you tell me what wheels you prefer? Or recommend. Cant chose between the melrose black/pink and melrose deluxe turquoise (cant find a review of them) , so octo wheels or propel wheels. I'm a beginner and will be skating on the street. Thx for your vlogs to learn me about chaya skates!!
Oh sorry for the late reply, the Melrose has a plastic plate and the deluxe have a metal plate. I would go for the deluxe, or even the elite of u can stretch to that bit more for the adjustable toe stop. There’s a huge difference between sugar rush and octo propel wheels, and not a huge difference between octo passeo but I prefer the sugar rush if I had to be picky. I actually have videos of me using all three of these wheels. Thank u for ur comment btw 🥰🥰🥰
They’re not artistic skates so I’m not sure, GHSkates make artistic skates but they’re more expensive you can use my discount code (RCCHICK) but these chayas are entry level recreational skates
Very helpful review, thanks! I have pretty narrow feet and I would like to go for the deluxe, are they better suited for wide feet? And are they true to size? I wear size 38 (women's shoes), should I go for 38? (newbie here, haven't skated since I was a kid). Thanks in advance! 💕❤️
I am currently thinking about getting a first pair and overall I've heard Chaya is a good brand for a little wider feet (I got the opposite problem), i read on reddit specifically the elites supposedly are a bit wider in the front. But this review said the boot is the same so I'd assume they're both a little wider.
@@RhianChambers very well so far, considering the fact I am still learning how to skate in my living room. Oxelo is Decathlon's brand. They were very cheap, 45 euros, but so far they do their job and I have a 3 year guarantee anyway
I got my chaya elites dusky pink today and they were way too tight around the toes. Apparenntly I have wide feet. I have to send them back, hoping that one size bigger will fit then
@@sumbae7668 In the same boat as you. I tried on the chaya deluxe in store in a UK6 and it was too tight in the toes but they didn't have any larger sizes to try on so now I'm ordering a size 6.5 and hoping for the best. Not sure whether I should've ordered the size 7 instead but we'll see how it goes 🤞

Can they be converted to indoor skates when needed? Im just now interested in roller skating and trying to determine the right skates is difficult

Yes they’re the premiums and should have the bubble switch sole
I just got my Chaya Melrose Deluxe skates delivered and I'm worried that they're too small. Did yours seem to get bigger with use?
They did but not much, sorry for the late reply how are they feeling now? Did they break in or did u switch size?

Aw thank u so much, yes I will be getting some neon when they release new colours
@@RhianChambers No problem, and that's awesome, I'm a pink kinda person, so as soon as I saw pink I was satisfied. What colors are you hoping for?
