GoalieInTheDesertYT Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I’m on a budget for skates (150usd and maybe a little more). Size (8.5/9). I’m looking for a decent pair of skates. I am currently rocking a pair of supreme one95s. If anyone can point me in the direction of some skates that would be awesome. The skates done have to be new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ULTIMA Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I respect the fact that you're on a budget. But you won't be getting good skates on that budget. As you said, you are looking for decent skates. $150 WILL get you decent skates but your selection will be slim. You might be able to get a new pair on clearance but as far as I know, new (entry level) skates start at around $179 plus tax. Might get a good deal if you buy in Canada, the exchange is very good. Otherwise try EBay for a used pair. But my strong suggestion is save a little bit more money and go for a mid-grade skate that will last longer and have a better quality.

The skates done have to be new Definitely check out Ebay, I just bought a pair of lightly used Bauer Elites for $60, all they needed was laces and a sharpening. I'm not ready to move up to the cowlingless/taller holder/3mm blade skates just yet, so I'm always on Ebay looking for a deal on the previous generation skates. But used mid to upper tier Bauer Vertexx skates can be had for around $100-$150. Also look into Vaughn GX1's, I don't have any experience with them but I've seen them around for $150 or so.
