Intro & New Features
Offering the same fit and performance that over 85% of active NHL goaltenders have to come to love, the Catalyst 9X4 Goalie Skates are designed for ultimate response, control, and agility between the pipes. Combined with the Neurofit+ one-piece shell with the new MotionCuff technology, this innovative design is specifically engineered to enhance goaltender's mobility and range of motion while providing optimal control when moving across the crease.
Skate Fit Profile
The TRUE Catalyst 9X4 Senior Goalie Skates come in sizes 7-11.5 in both regular and wide skate widths. It is typically a good guideline to drop your shoe size by about 1.5 sizes to find your fit. The skate should fit snug around your foot for maximum comfort and support when pushing off.
Boot Construction & Stiffness Profile
The TRUE thermoformable one-piece carbon fiber shell is one of TRUE's newest designs, and alongside with it the Neurofit+ technology helps create this high quality boot. This skate has a plastic base shell insert which helps to improve rivet hold & durability, and the stainless steel rivets improve skate durability and longevity.
Liner & Internal Padding
Inside the skate, the 9X4 goalie skates feature a clarino liner. This liner is designed to enhance foot lock and moisture wicking, keeping goalies feet dryer for longer. They also feature poured PU side panels for extreme abrasion resistance, keeping the foot protected and improving the durability of the skate.
Tongue
The 9X4 skate uses a lightweight pro goalie tongue with a molded T-Guard. The T-Guard is used often in TRUE's skates and is built to help protect against lace bite and impact. The tongue and T-guard are built to provide goaltenders with the ultimate fit, comfort, and a high level of protection.
Steel/Runner & Blade Holder
TRUE Catalyst 9X4 Goalie Skates feature the Shift Attack holder and steel blades. The Shift Attack holder is furnished with new Bench Change technology, which helps make changing your skate runners out seamless and easy. The stainless runner is simple and designed to last longer than standard steel.

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.***
