I like it mainly because it protects that area of the composite heel.

I just received my new pair. FYI... If you don't get the True holders (I got Bauer Edge), they come without the foxings on the heel.

Zero comments?

Agreed.

I like it too, actually. Makes it look a bit more finished. I'll likely order sometime in early 2018 or ask for a pair for Christmas.

Not sure I'd classify this as "sweet", necessarily. But I just filed for US citizenship. I don't really want it, but it gives us the flexibility to move home without having to abandon my permanent residency status.

I could be wrong but I think he means it didn't come with the piece below that has the True logo on it:

7x retrofit finished. Let there be light!!!

Skates have historically been on a 2-year cycle, so sometime in 2018.

I liked it too. Sad to see it not on there. It makes it look closer to the slick retail skates. Oh well. At first I thought it was a mistake but I called them up and was told that it only works with the True holders. I had more important issues to deal with anyway. I bought Edge holders and LS3 steel from Pro Hockey Life online and had them shipped directly to True (VH) so they could put them on (they told me they would). When they came yesterday they came without steel. I paid $90 for the steel. I asked them what was up and they said that Pro Hockey Life shipped the wrong steel. The guy I talked to at True said that they were LS2 instead of LS3 but I suspect that the problem is actually that they are not the Edge version LS3 (I wasn't aware that the Edge holder uses a special version so I probably ordered the wrong one). However, I get that they couldn't put them in the skates, but they should have at least put them in the box so that I could recoup some of my expense on eBay. The guy I talked to yesterday was supposed to get back to me today to let me know what they could do, but as yet I haven't heard back from them. If they can't find them, I can't imagine they are going to ship me some. So I think my skates are going to end up $90 more than they should have.
