Any pictures of the skates?

Could you please be a little more specific?

It's not like a defenceman would need a special blade pattern, go with anything you like. Do you prefer a toe, mid or heel curve? Closed, neutral or open face, what lie do you use? Its mostly p.p. Whatever works for you.

Like JR said, mainly cosmetics

That's not reality. That's what you're thinking, and that's only reality in your mind. The truth is no one really knows, only time can tell...

The composite outsole on the previous 9K:s was encased in a plastic rim, from looking at the pictures it seems like it's gone?

Glam rock from the 70:s, anyone remember The Sweet? :P The Sweet - Rebel Rouser

$529.99

Roger Taylor, one of my favorite drummers and he sings pretty damn good as well... I'm in love with my car...

Here's one more...

Lol, you forgot to tell us what laces your using. Waxed, length, make, color etc.

They come in three different widths at the retail level, right?

Could you please elaborate? Also, what other skates did you try on for comparition? Thank's!
