Ideally Tydan or step but they’re both near impossible to come by. 

I’ll be switching the tydan with Sam profile from my pros to konekts

I saw!  Manager at my pure goalie said he can order them if they show on the site so I’m going to call tomorrow and hopefully get my hands on them soon

I’m still waiting on my size 11 ordered more than 2 weeks ago.

How'd you find it with the foam? I'm on the ice tomorrow for the first time after my shop replaced the skates for me due to the clip issue.

I'm coming from Bauer 2S Pro skates and with how skinny my ankles are, I got into the habit of lightly taping them with sock tape to my ankles and didn't notice it hindering mobility. Debating doing the same with these, as the ankle simply doesn't ratchet tight enough for my liking. It's not a leg strength issue, I just have twig legs.

I’m still waiting for the ones I ordered on august 4th. Not sure that’s taking so long.

Just had the same issue with my skate. Used maybe 4 times? 5?

This def worries me of these break like this then what do you do if you don’t have another pair of skates. Can it be popped back in or is that bucket toast? 

I’m debating if if going to stick with super feet or try the stock insoles.

I spoke much too soon on my initial impressions. If we were concerned about the buckles and their longevity, this is an immediate concern from Bauer. Not been on the ice once, picked them up about 3 hours ago.

That’s not good

Store should have them. They do not come with the skates.

My store doesn’t have the tools. They don’t stock the skates but can order them so they don’t have all the stuff

The shell is thermomoldable too. Like @ThatCarGuy the retailers should be coached in all sorts tricks to widen the toe box of the outer shell.

Skates also come with a pack of pad things  to help stretch the boot

Do the skates each come with the shims and toe expansion or does the dealer just have it with their fitting kit?

kicking myself for upgrading to bauer pros last year

Me too 

Following. I have mine on order. My local shop doesn’t have the kit from bauer with the ice packs and shims tho. 

Vogel bamboo sweatbands and socks are the best I’ve ever used. They also offer different thickness bands.

My new Brian’s gnetik 5 sets. White set is custom and black set is TGC store stock. Absolutely love this gear. 

Brian’s knock out another amazing set for me. Gnetik5 36+1 set with thin blue line embroidery, reenforced 1” deeper t, full primo boot, primo stars, professor straps, and primo binding on the fingers. 

My custom Optik2 chesty with beefed up arms.

there's a new pro pack coming?? 

 

i see their base version is no longer made so i'm guessing the new pro will be even more expensive and the current pro pack will be the new base version? 

 

I ended up just getting a custom optik2 chesty instead of waiting

Glad it worked out then.  That could be pretty ballsy for a salesman to go against what Bauer's programming is suggesting.  

Yeah I think the fit 1 wouldn’t been to tight. I was in 2x pro 11D before these. They also can’t be returned so glad they worked out. I’d be interested to try on a pair of fit 1 but nobody locally has my size. Fit 2 is pretty much the standard. Fit 1 for super narrow foot and fit 3 for wide feet

Did he suggest this due to the size difference in your feet?

Not sure. I think because fit 2 is standard. Most people will be fit 2 or 3. Fit 1 is narrow. The 11 fits pretty good, my toes don’t feel cramped 

Played tonight with them and they felt pretty good. Stock insoles, normal lacing to top eyelets, no lace bite, no ankle pain. The agility profile was fine and had no issues with 5/8 sharpening. Only thing that hurt a bit was the bottoms of my feet in the arch area. It wasn’t bad pain but noticeable. Not sure if the actual fit 1 would be better for this issue or what? Toes are close to the toe cap esp in the right skate but not cramped. I might try them with my super feet next time out just to see 

I had my foot scanned with the Bauer 3D scanner and showed my left foot is 11 and my right foot is 11.25 so suggested that as custom or 11.5 retail. Also said my fit was 1 because my foot is narrow. I already have the 11 fit 2 baked so we’ll see how it goes. 

I also had my foot scanned at pure goalie with the Bauer 3D scanner and it said I’d be a 11 fit 1. Sales guy said I should go with fit 2 though 

I just picked these up Thursday and will be skating with them Sunday. I’m coming from 2x pro 11D. I got the new ones in 11 fit 2. So far I’d say they feel pretty good just baking them and walking around. There’s a lot of cushion in the ankle and tongue. I usually lace my skates outside in and do the lock loop at top. Also had super feet comfort on my 2x. I’m going to try these new ones laced regular and stock foot beds and see how it goes. Also the blade profile is different so I hope I’ll like it. I did 5/8 sharpening that I did on my 2x.

I don't know what you are talking about 

I’m waiting to order the pro pack when the new version comes out. Hopefully it’s soon!

New gnetik 4 Halak inspired set. The Goalie Crease and Brian’s killed it! 36+1.5, stock breaks, blue line flag embroidery, full primo skate landing area, 1” deeper anchor t with skate lace and pro palm, primo on high wear area on blocker fingers. Bummed they got cut my 2nd game wearing them tho. 

Love mine so far. I’m coming from a custom Kova. I find this one to be a lot more comfortable. Haven’t taken any good shots in that area yet to judge the protection yet. Letters are coming off already.
