jjtt99 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2005 Do a search and you'll see there has already been lots of discussion about Bauer 8090 skates.I sure hope you had a chance to try them on before you bought as they have a unique fit compared to other Bauer skates.http://www.modsquadhockey.com/index.php?showtopic=2977http://www.modsquadhockey.com/index.php?showtopic=11036&hl=http://www.modsquadhockey.com/index.php?showtopic=11662&hl=JJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BGM 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2005 I just got them and really don't see much of a change in how they fit than most Bauer skates (and I had XXs and 7000s before). They are a little wider in the forefoot but not much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
asdfa 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2005 they are awesome. fit aside, i can't think of a better skate for the money. they feel like nothing on my feet, and they're practically bulletproof in terms of durability and protection Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are a little wider in the forefoot but not much. the instep is MUCH deeper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hattrick74 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2005 how do they fit compared to xx's? i have had 2 pairs of pro *used xx's and loved them, then went to synergies and they were far and away the best skates i have had. i have thought about pickin up some 8090's but am hesistant because i have used pro issues/stock skates for the past 4-5 yrs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
