sneakers with wheel in the back

My ten year old wants a pair of those sneakers that have the wheel in the back you can roll on. I have been trying to figure out the types online. We ordered a pair of "healeys" from amazon and are waiting for them to come. In my mind I thought there was a different kind of shoes with wheels in the back where the wheels were much smaller and subtle. He wants to wear them to school. the healeys seem like with the big wheel it is potentially dangerous and also that the school wont allow them. Is there another kind that has smaller wheels?

I dont think its sensible to wear them in school tbh so I wouldn't let my child wear them there

Agree, any kind of shoe with wheels in the back would not be suitable for school, at least in the UK. Most schools ask for proper school shoes, not trainers.

Though the fact you have called them 'sneakers' and are even considering this, makes me think maybe you are elsewhere such as the US?
