New for 2021, Bauer is simplifying their skate lineup just like they did on the player side. With a new fit system and model designation, the Bauer Elite SR Goalie Skates are a mashup of all the great features from the recent Vapor and Supreme lines designed to be a more cost effective option that still provides great performance.
Skate Fit Profile
Just like Bauer did for their player line, the new Elite skate features a new fit system made up of 3 different widths and depths designed to fit a wider variety of goalies. Fit 1 is a Low Volume, Narrow Width closest aligned to the current Supreme goalie fit profile; fit 2 is a Medium Volume, Medium Width closest aligned to the current goalie Vapor fit profile; Fit 3 is a new fit coming in sizes 7-10.5 for High Volume, Wide Width closest aligned to the player Nexus fit profile.
Boot Construction/Stiffness/Level of Play
The Elite skate also uses a 3D lasted Curv composite quarter similar to the Pro skate offering good lateral support and rigidity. Paired with their StanceFlex + technology, the Elite boot while slightly softer offers a good combination of energy transfer and support.
Liner/Internal Padding
The liner in the Elite skate is their HydraMax 2 liner similar to that seen on the X2.9 skate in previous years. This liner offers great moisture wicking and comfort especially when combined with AeroFoam ankle padding.
Tongue
A pro felt tongue is used on the Elite skate which is great for flexibility and lace-bite protection.
Holders & Steel
The Elite skates stick with the Vertexx edge holder and LS3G+ steel combo as seen on all of their performance level goal skates in recent years.
Graphics
The Bauer Elite Senior Goalie Skates feature a clean understated black and silver design with hints of a vibrant green accent colour.

Hockey Goalie Skate Sizing Guide
- Things to consider:
- Age
- Measurement from longest point of foot (cm)
When sizing for the correct size of a skate, we always advise taking the measurements below from a sitting position and not standing upright. Additional weight on your foot/feet can skew your result and misrepresent your foot size. The reason for this is that as you put your full weight on your feet, the arch of your foot will collapse and cause your foot to appear wider or longer than it actually is.
As well, please be aware that skate sizes and shoes sizing do not match exactly. As a general guideline, skates size 1 ½ sizes smaller than shoes.
It is ideal for a player to have a tight, snug fit both in length and width as this will provide the best performance and durability. If a skate is too big you will feel your feet slide around and you will not get the full performance out of the skates and can also develop calcium deposits - Haglund’s Deformity or “Bauer Bumps” for lack of a better term although this issue doesn’t only occur with Bauer models.
An Ideal Fit:
Stand with your skates laced and your heel snug in the heel cup. Your toes should just barely feather the end of the toe box. Bend forward into a skating stance. Your toes should pull back slightly from the toe box. Once heat fit, your foot should slide back into the foams of the skate and the length you felt in your skating stance will more-or-less become you standing size.
To obtain the measurement above you will need a soft tape measure and a pen. Start by placing the tape measure flat along the ground in a straight line. Sitting in a chair, place your foot down with the longest point of your foot (usually big toe, or second toe) in line with the edge of the tape measure. Make sure you keep your weight off of your foot. Take a pen and mark the tape measure where the edge of your heel ends. Record this length in cm. This measurement will correspond with the sizing charts in each brand below, if you do not see your exact measurement, select the size with the next size increment above your measurement (i.e. you measure 24.9 cm, you would select 25.1 cm or Size 6).
Sizing Children for Growth Room:
If you are purchasing skates for your child, it is common and usually recommended to add some additional room in the skate to increase the last, we recommend no more than 1 full size. Feet stop growing around ages 15 – 15 ½, and from ages 14 - 15 ½ we would recommend adding only half (1/2) a size in length. Follow the same measurement instructions as above, once you obtain your true size move up ½ or 1 size.
***Sizing of skates is very preference based and these measurements will not guarantee a fit that is right for you. Please use these as general guidelines, for the most accurate fit we always recommend getting measured by a professional skate fitter at our store or your local pro shop.***
