This skate takes features from other Bauer models and incorporates them into a performance-level skate and a lower price point. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSkate Fit Profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Supreme Matrix Senior skates come in Bauer’s Fits 1, 2, and 3, which is a concept that debuted in 2020. This was a great innovation, considering how the three lines, Vapor, Supreme, and Nexus all historically had their own fits, despite performing differently. Now, those with narrower feet for example can enjoy the powerful stride enhancements that come with the Supreme line. Below is how the Bauer Fit system compares to previous years’ Bauer Skates: \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFit 1 = Low Volume, Narrow Width (closest aligned to the Vapor Fit Profile) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFit 2 = Medium Volume, Medium Width (closest aligned to the Supreme Fit Profile) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFit 3 = High Volume, Wide Width (closest aligned to the Nexus Fit Profile)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBoot Construction \u0026amp; Stiffness Profile \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe boot is what makes the Matrix skate a solid option for those who want some benefits of the Fuse and F50 Pro at a more affordable price point. As part of Bauer’s Supreme line, these skates have a high stiffness profile to withstand and cater to more powerful strides. The boot uses a Carbon CURV quarter and a Digi Comp Outsole, which is the same as previous high-end models and helps reinforce and keep the boot stiffer for longer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLiner \u0026amp; Internal Padding \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe skates are outfitted with a Lock-Fit liner for extra grip, durability and moisture management, so you can be comfortable and perform at your best. The skates use Aerofoam+ Technology in the ankle padding, which is designed a bit thicker than conventional foam but it is more form-fitting and thermoformable. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eToe Cap \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFor a better overall fit and to negate any unused space within the boot, Bauer turned to using an asymmetrical toe cap, a concept that has been observed in previous high-end Bauer skates. This isn’t necessarily new technology, but Bauer went ahead with the Supreme Matrix skates and enhanced the toe further for an even better fit. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTendon Guard \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Matrix skates use the flex tendon guard, which is designed to enhance your skating stride and offer premium protection. It replaces traditional, stiff guards with a flexible, durable design that stretches during extension to maximize power transfer, then snaps back to keep your achilles protected. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTongue\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThese skates are built with a classic felt tongue that provides excellent lace-bite protection, a custom rap, and superior forward flex. They are breathable, lightweight, and mold perfectly to your foot over time. While modern stiff tongues enhance energy return, the classic felt tongue offers a forgiving feel and unmatched comfort. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInsoles \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Supreme Matrix skates use a Lock-Fit Pro footbed, completing the lining. Lock-Fit Pro is designed to, as the name suggests, lock your foot in place and make it easier for you to push off and keep control of your skating. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLacing System \u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Matrix skates 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\nThese skates also incorporate the use of AMP flex facing. This design is an area between the second and their eyelets with increased forward flex for a better range of motion. This innovation was introduced to help skaters tie their skates to the top eyelet while retaining optimal flex in their ankles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \n\n\u003ch2\u003eSteel\/Runner, Holder \u0026amp; Blade Profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Bauer Supreme Matrix hockey skates will come with the Fly-X steel, which is a runner with a high grade core and enhanced edge retention. The holder featured in the skate is the Bauer Powerfly holder. \n","brand":"Bauer","offers":[{"title":"4 \/ Fit 1","offer_id":43022079787074,"sku":"489134","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 \/ Fit 2","offer_id":43022079819842,"sku":"489140","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 \/ Fit 3","offer_id":43022079852610,"sku":"489146","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.5 \/ Fit 1","offer_id":43022079885378,"sku":"489135","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.5 \/ Fit 2","offer_id":43022079918146,"sku":"489141","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.5 \/ Fit 3","offer_id":43022079950914,"sku":"489147","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 \/ Fit 1","offer_id":43022079983682,"sku":"489136","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 \/ Fit 2","offer_id":43022080016450,"sku":"489142","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 \/ Fit 3","offer_id":43022080049218,"sku":"489148","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.5 \/ Fit 1","offer_id":43022080081986,"sku":"489137","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.5 \/ Fit 2","offer_id":43022080114754,"sku":"489143","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.5 \/ Fit 3","offer_id":43022080147522,"sku":"489149","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 \/ Fit 1","offer_id":43022080180290,"sku":"489138","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 \/ Fit 2","offer_id":43022080213058,"sku":"489144","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 \/ Fit 3","offer_id":43022080245826,"sku":"489150","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.5 \/ Fit 1","offer_id":43022080278594,"sku":"489139","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.5 \/ Fit 2","offer_id":43022080311362,"sku":"489145","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.5 \/ Fit 3","offer_id":43022080344130,"sku":"489151","price":719.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/1585\/4658\/files\/hockey-skates-bauer-supreme-matrix-intermediate-hockey-skates-1234052735.jpg?v=1776949820","url":"https:\/\/www.thehockeyshop.com\/products\/bauer-supreme-matrix-intermediate-hockey-skates-2","provider":"TheHockeyShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
