How do mission skates fit ? Compared to Bauers ...

[mattopiela 0]

Hey I have an opportunity to buy some S500 for a good price. I am currently using a pair of vapor xxx's in a size 6.5 D, can anyone tell me what size I would most likely be in a mission skate ? Cheers.

Mission is the closest to your actual shoe size. I wear a 9.5 shoe, 8 in Easton and Bauer's, my new Fuels are 9. After baking, I could have gone 8.5 but these are fine. My PP is very snug skates.

I wear the same size in the Fuels as I would in Vapors.

So the average of your shoes is a size 10 basically. My average shoe is a 9.5. The skate charts reference street shoes. The point is, skates, like all shoes fit differently by manufacturer and the only way to really know is to try them on.

10.5 Bauers fit more snugly than ideal but 11 is way too big even before break in

and I'm in an 11 Mission s400. They're pretty close scales to me.

I would be carefull. I wear a size 6.5 in CCM, size 6.0 in Bauer, and 9.0 Mission S300. I wear a size 9 shoe. There is not a conversion table out there.

I find it very hard to believe that you were fitted properly for those skates

Chadd,

I have never bought Missions bcause they have never fit me right. I went to my LHS to buy the S300's and none of the skates worked well with my foot. The only one that was close was the size 9.0. I walked out with some Vector 6.0's. Do the new Missions the L series and Fuels have a different fit then the S series? I have always heard good things about the Mission skates, but after that experience I have not tried them on since then.

S and L series are completely different fit IMO.

S series are painful to me and L fit well (in EE anyways)

edit: i used to have vectors also btw...so you're probably more the L type.

What I have heard:

Fuel AG is roughly the S-line, short-cut boots

Fuel XP is roughly the L-line, more traditional boots.

Take into consideration the S/L boots aren't exactly the AG/XP boots. I think Chadd said his AG's were a bit wider compared to his S500's.

The Fuels don't fit exactly like the older mission skates and the L don't fit like the S.

Are any of the skates in E or EE width or just Regular / D width? I can fit into a 6.5 E width Vector and I am a 9 shoe size.

No. I wear a D width in the Bauer and the Vectors.
