- Rollerblade has announced the MetroBlade, which is a walking shoe and
- external in-line shell sold as a pair. There have been pictures in
- several US magazines. I haven't seen it in stores, but I haven't been
- looking either. One magazine stated that sizes 7-10 are available now;
- other sizes will be available in the spring.
-
- The MSRP is $225.
