    Skates don’t improve year after year like that. What you’re picturing sounds like linear improvement. That’s the message that marketing departments try to sell, but it’s not that clear what an improvement actually is when you think about it. Sure, there are changes from year to year, and the messaging from the company’s marketing campaigns will always and only ever be positive about these, but there’s not objective measure to quantify “improvement.” Some improvements are actually missteps, which is usually clearest after in-depth reviews following actual product use start coming in. Once in a while there can be big jumps in product quality, from the Bauer Supreme 8090 to the one90 for instance. But there were still plenty of players who longed for the 8090 after it was gone. Similarly, lots of players who loved Vapors up to the X60 didn’t like CURV Vapors like the APX. Bauer accomodated that for a while, but those days are numbered. So even in cases when it seems as clear as possible that a product “improved” you’ll never get everyone to agree to jump to the new model ship: improvement is very individual and imprecise.

    The latest tech-mesh boot was called Mosoca and it had the 2X Pro graphics. Not too many tech-mesh guys out there anymore. The following players are still wearing tech-mesh Vapors: Artturi Lehkonen Andrew Cogliano Jamie Benn Luke Glendening Jake Guentzel Rickard Rakell Alex Tuch Eric Staal Evgenii Dadonov Justin Braun Erik Gustafsson Matt Irwin Jonathan Toews Jake McCabe Jack Johnson Jarred Tinordi Nikolaj Ehlers Tyson Barrie Vince Dunn Phil Kessel
