roller blades
Wheeled foot transport
Roller blades are inline skates—boots with a single row of wheels arranged heel to toe, rather than the two-by-two configuration of traditional roller skates.
The term comes from Rollerblade, a brand name that became genericized.
Used for recreation, fitness, and urban transportation: I used to roller blade to work every day.
Also appears as a verb: We roller bladed around the park.
