where can I buy DDs roller skates?

I am having trouble finding roller skates for DD1 (age 6, size 11) and DD2 (age 4, size 8)

has anyone any ideas? i can't believe it is this hard! I want to get the proper boot ones, not the "dora" type ones you strap over their shoes.

ideally somewhere we can go and try them on... we are SW London but willing to drive

TIA

I bought some in one of those cheapish sports shops - sports and soccer or whatever.

found Decathlon bibbity, thanks they have some but again start at size 10.5 and inline skates... they did quad skates at center parcs and loved it. are inline skates much harder?

We got boot style ones for my 6 y/o ds for Christmas last year online. Sorry but I can't remember the name of the company - but am sure we would just have googled children's roller skates.

ok will keep hunting, glad to hear they do exist.
