Get ready to dominate the ice with the new Tacks XR skate lineup, engineered to elevate every stride and turn. Leading the charge, the Tacks XR is a NHL caliber force, featuring the revolutionary RFM power composite for enhanced durability and the signature Tacks stiffness profile. Players can benefit from amplified power and explosiveness in every stride, driven by the one-piece boot construction and a new to Tacks, internal attacking pitch that makes you quicker on your toes, ready to accelerate and react like never before.
Skate Fit Profile
The Tacks XR skates are designed to be a much more stiffer boot, providing the most support to strong skaters. Stiff skates may be tough to break in and use at first, but they are best for skaters with big strides and won’t wear down as easily, even if you are skating most of the week. This skate is completely thermoformable, meaning it is moldable and responsive to heat. Baking and fitting the skates while heated will allow them to fully adapt to your foot shape. These skates come in three different skate widths:
- Tapered: Narrow Forefoot, Narrow Heel, Low Volume
- Regular: Medium Forefoot, Medium Heel, Medium Volume
- Wide: Wide Forefoot, Wider Heel, Wide High Volume
Boot Construction & Stiffness Profile
The RFM Power Composite is an NHL-caliber lightweight composite material, with enhanced durability and Tacks stiffness profile. With higher in-step volume, it delivers a more generous fit in the midfoot. Players can experience amplified power from every stride with CCM’s one-piece boot construction, and an increased pitch angle for a more aggressive stance.
Liner & Internal Padding
Inside the skate, CCM added the TotalDri Pro liner. This liner is a high-performance moisture-wicking material that is designed to keep feet dry and skates light, while the antimicrobial treatment fights odor and bacteria. The XR skates feature ADPT Memory Foam that provides seamless comfort. This multi-layered configuration with denser ADPT Memory Foam ankle pads create a comfortable and snug skate interior.
Tongue
These skates feature the ADPT Comfort Tongue. With a molded core, the ADPT Memory foam wraps around your foot for ultimate feel and comfort. The FlexMotion design minimizes lace-bite and maximizes forward flexion in the skate.
Insoles
The footbed on these skates feature the molded CCM ortholite ultra with ADPT memory foam, which is an ultra-lightweight molded fit with heel grip support and an added layer on ADPT memory foam for extra comfort. Additionally, it features a lightweight midsole for enhanced energy transfer from the boot to the blade.
Holder & Steel
These skates use CCM Step Steel which is a high quality steel with precise profile and thickness for better edge control. This steel adds 4mm in height over standard runners allowing for more longevity. To hold the blades in place, CCM implemented the Speedblade XS holder with an enhanced dial. This quick-release holder and blade lock system feature an improved dial, for easier grip and quicker runner changes on the fly.

Hockey Player Skate Sizing Guide
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.***
