This mid-level skate is perfect for developing skaters and those who play at a more recreational level but want more tech and better performance in their skates. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSkate Fit Profile \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Bauer Supreme Elite Junior Hockey Skates come in sizes 1-3.5, with D and EE skate widths. D width is more of a standard width, whereas EE fits a bit wider for large feet. When deciding on a skate size, a good rule of thumb is to take the player’s shoe size and drop it by 1 or 1.5 sizes. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBoot Construction \u0026amp; Stiffness Profile \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Digi Comp boot keeps the skates’ performance competitive without making it too stiff and difficult to skate in. For a more comfortable feel when turning, the Elite skate includes a comfort edge along both sides above the ankle. Although the Elite skate is designed to be a bit more flexible to accommodate a wider range of skaters, the Supreme family of skates are classified as stiffer than Vapor family skates. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLiner \u0026amp; Internal Padding \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFor the Elite skate, Bauer used a sublimated hydrophobic microfiber liner along the inside to wick away moisture and repel odour while you play. Including this kind of liner ensures that you stay comfortable in your skates all game long without the potential distraction of a wet boot. The internal padding is made of lightweight memory foam to further increase comfort when wearing the boot. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTongue \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe tongue is made of an updated junior mesh pro stock felt material with a mesh metatarsal guard. This combination of comfort and protection is designed to form fit around and over the metatarsus area for extra coverage, and the thick felt coupled with the tough exterior help shield the front ankle area of your foot from harm while you play. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTendon Guard \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Elite skates feature a standard tendon guard. A standard tendon guard protects the vulnerable achilles tendon from skate blades, slashes and other impacts that may occur. It provides a barrier of protection, while aiding in transferring power during a deep, knee-bent skating stride. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLacing System \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAs seen on many previous Bauer skates, the Supreme line continues to use Standard eyelets. This integration allows the skates to have increased durability that can withstand intense, long-term use. Standard eyelets also allow the player to easily modify their lacing to allow for greater forward flex, while having a tight, secure fit that prevents the foot from shifting within the boot, which is essential for proper energy transfer, stability, and quick turns. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSteel Runner, Holder \u0026amp; Blade Profile \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Bauer Supreme Elite skates feature the Fly-X steel. The Fly-X steel is a premium runner designed to provide long-lasting performance, helping you stay sharp on the ice with enhanced glide, and pro-level performance. To keep the blades secure and in place, Bauer used their Tuuk Lightspeed Edge holder, which features a release trigger at the back that allows for an easy way to swap out blades. \n","brand":"Bauer","offers":[{"title":"1 \/ D","offer_id":43022152695874,"sku":"489261","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 \/ EE","offer_id":43022152728642,"sku":"489255","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.5 \/ D","offer_id":43022152761410,"sku":"489262","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.5 \/ EE","offer_id":43022152794178,"sku":"489256","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 \/ D","offer_id":43022152826946,"sku":"489263","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 \/ EE","offer_id":43022152859714,"sku":"489257","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.5 \/ D","offer_id":43022152892482,"sku":"489264","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.5 \/ EE","offer_id":43022152925250,"sku":"489258","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 \/ D","offer_id":43022152958018,"sku":"489265","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 \/ EE","offer_id":43022152990786,"sku":"489259","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"3.5 \/ D","offer_id":43022153023554,"sku":"489266","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3.5 \/ EE","offer_id":43022153056322,"sku":"489260","price":229.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/1585\/4658\/files\/hockey-skates-bauer-supreme-elite-junior-hockey-skates-1234053031.jpg?v=1776946907","url":"https:\/\/www.thehockeyshop.com\/products\/bauer-supreme-elite-junior-hockey-skates-1","provider":"TheHockeyShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
