What do you call these trainer-type things with a wheel in the heel?

I can't be bothered googling. I've had too much wine. Would someone please tell me what they're called and how much they are and where you buy them? And are they the sort of thing an 11-year old boy would like? Thanks.

saw someone with these the other day, though the kis was slipping about, then noticed she had a wheel in the heel. very strange.

I've just looked on ebay for them. At the risk of sounding like my mum, have you seen the price of them?? £60!

Sorry, WishICouldGiveUpWork, I've just realised you told me the price in your post. I've definitely had too much wine, so I'm off to bed now.
