hockeypunk3 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2005 i tried on the V-12s and the 8090's, they fit very differently.... even though the difference in fit i felt that the 8090 were stiffer. If Nike has kept the same stiffness from the v-12s to the flexlites. than the 8090's will be stiffer. V-12s didnt fit my foot so i got the 8090's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hunter4oz 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2005 you will learn quickly that around here, everything is about personal preference and fit. the two skates you are comparing dont even fit close to the same. you have to try them on and see what works for you. this ccant just be decided on what others think of the skates Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried both on (v-12 and 8090), and both fit me well... the difference I felt on my feet was only slight, and that was with one on each foot. I felt that the v-12 was stiffer fully laced because it surrounded your foot the way it does. I can't comment on the flexlite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah it must have fit your foot better than mine then because the 8090's felt stiffer while fully laced to me so i think the fit would have alot to do with it.
