Peter36 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Does anyone know if the Skate Lab works for goalie skates too? Do the vapor and supreme player skates fit differently vs the goalie ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckstopper Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Yes it does. The Vapor and Supreme lines are reversed in goalie skates, with the Vapor being the higher volume skate and the Supreme being the tighter fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when you use the machine if it fits you for supreme is it really a vapor for goalies, or is there a separate setting for goalies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puckstopper Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 There is a separate setting for goalies. I start with a Brannock and scan every customer at least twice to make sure we're getting the right size. I do this because the machine is only as good as the data that is put into it. and I've seen a surprising number of variances with some customers (sometimes as much as a full size). If I do get 2 different results I'll do a third scan and go with the recommendation that came up twice. Usually an "off" result is a product of someone shifting just a tiny bit while it's measuring or not bending their knees for the measurement and is easily corrected.

Puckstopper Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I got better results barefoot, but there's no way I'm letting some of the customers do that. Some of these kids pull off their shoes and I almost gag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I own the X700 and I tried on some S27s in the shop yesterday and I felt that the Supremes were way more roomier in the toe box compared to my Vapors. More wiggle room, and they weren't even baked. The foot bed was more comfortable as well. I removed the insoles in my Vapors to put in the Speed insoles for more support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end fit is such a personal thing and you should buy whatever makes your feet happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally speaking, I would suggest trying them both on if you have the opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
