Vector 6.0 Vs Tacks 695

[stroz9 0]

I am new to theses boards and need help. I have been playing competive Roller Hockey (3-4 Times per week) for the last 11 Years and have skated exclusively on Mission skates. I am just getting back into ice and need new skates. I have narrowed my search down to the Vector 6.0, Tacks 695, and the Mission Fuel 85. My foot is a bit wider and I was wondering if anyone could tell me the difference between the three skates I mentioned above as far as comfort. Thanks in advacne for your help.

The Tacks will be on the wider end of the spectrum. They will certainly be wider than the Vectors. If you do get the Vectors, you'll have to look at E sizes (or wider).

O I Plan on it. I never but skates online. I was just hoping to get some insight from people who are currently using them. I mean I have been using Misssion Inlines for years but that does not always translate into a good ice hockey boot.

I concurr, the Tacks will be wider than the Vector 6's. Stay away from Missions as they are traditionally a narrow fit and even the "E" width will be too tight if you have a wider foot. As previously mentioned try on both the Tacks and the Vectors at a local hockey shop and then make your decision from there. ;)
