My guess is they’re just branded shells.

Whereas $599 gets you a one-piece boot from CCM. Bauer’s price point skates have become disappointing in recent years.
-
My local store negated the 90 day guarantee for the FT1 models once the FT2 was released. Not sure about others, though.
-
You can see the midsole when you remove the footbed. I know for a fact that the FT1 midsole is composite and the FT490 is nylon. I don’t see why there would be a nylon midsole on the FT2. How much of a performance benefit would you really notice between a composite/nylon midsole? There are a ton of NHL pro stock Bauer skates that have what looks to be nylon midsoles rather than composite like the retail versions.

Nylander was also using the DX tonight.

What exactly is the difference between the P28 and the Fisher Pro curve?
-
Yeah, fortunately there is a 90 day guarantee. I just wanted a few different opinions before sending them back. Now hopefully they have my size available. Thanks a lot for the feedback.
-
Length wise is the issue for me. Sorry, I should have been more specific. The for is great everywhere but the toe box. That is where things start to get tight.
-
How much should I expect the FT1’s to give in length after baking? I just received my pair in a usual 8 D like I wore in every other Bauer for the last decade and they’re extremely tight to the point where I’m contemplating going up half a size.
-
To those of you who own a pair of pro stock CCM gloves, do they run true to size? I tried ordering a pair of quicklite gloves and they felt significantly smaller than most other gloves at 13" and I haven't bothered with CCM gloves since then. I'm currently looking at ordering a pair of HG97 or HG98 gloves from sidelineswap but I've decided to hold off until I can get some feedback.

How is the fit of the Tacks in comparison to Bauer’s Supreme line in regards to volume/heel lock/forefoot? I’m currently in S190’s at the moment and I’m looking to order a pair of 9090’s, or I might just hold off for the FT490’s once they release.
-
Hockey Tutorial should be releasing a video soon comparing the FT2 and FT490. I'm curious as to why there would be a nylon midsole in a fully composite one-piece boot and how it affects performance, etc.
-
I personally would love to see a kovalev pro pattern as stated from above. Another pattern I have always wanted to see is a mild P88 (almost like a cross between P88 and PM9) with a P92 blade shape. Not sure if any pros have used this, I'm sure some have so I'll have to do some research and post a picture if I come across one.

catalogue review 2016 Bauer Hockey Catalogue

The new Vapor line looks like it has a very low profile fit. I might have to hold off on getting new pads until these release. -

The new vapor line shoulder pads look sleek. Interested to see them in person. Any idea when the 1X protective gear will be released?
