When purchasing a new pair of hockey skates, it is important to focus on fit. If you’re unsure which skate line or model fits your foot best, use our sizing guide below or for the most accurate measurement and assessment, visit your local Pure Hockey to be scanned on a Bauer 3D scanner.

A big upgrade from the previous Vapor 3X skate model is the 3D lasted Curv Composite Quarter package. This provides elite level support while keeping the skate very lightweight. The Junior X4 Skate has a LS Balance runner with a 13ft radius and Motion-Flex to make it easier for kids to bend their knees and learn the skating stride.

The 40oz Pro Stock tongue has a comfort lining that offers a balance of performance, support and great feel. Inside the boot you’ll find a sublimated liner with comfort edge on the ankles and Bauer’s Form-Fit footbed. The liner provides good support, a soft feel, and moisture-management properties to help wick sweat away and keep your foot secured in the boot. The footbed is lined with memory foam underneath for true comfort as soon as you step into the skate.

The Vapor X4 skate provides competitive players, who are on the ice a couple times a week, with a great option for a skate with great performance features and some high-end technology to make this model a terrific value.
