Nike/Bauer ONE95/ONE75 Skates

Wow. Guess these guys don't want to make money.

I have a membership program in my stores - but you have to pay for it to get a discount.

You do pay for the membership, unless you buy skates...then it's free......

[JR Boucicaut 3797]

Yet you give away a membership on a low-margin item such as skates?

Ours, when you buy a membership on a pair of high-end skates, is more than half-paid for after the discount you get on the skates. However, it is not remotely close to what these guys are doing.

Oh well, if you wanna make 20 pts, better you than me.

yeah I don't know the business side of these things, all i know is to become a member you can either pay $25 for a year-long membership, or you get a free year-long membership with a skate purchase.

Loss leading seems to always bite companies in the ass.

It's not just the skates though, everything in the store is cheap. When you have 3-4 big hockey stores all within about 5 miles the competition drives the prices down a bit.

What is the name of the store and the location? I'm heading to the cities for the high school hockey tournament in march and wouldn't mind checking them out.

[epstud74 24]

It seems to be in Blaine...Not too far from St Paul..I'd say 20-25 min tops in traffice. I've never been in there nor heard of it, but they seem to have been in business for 25 years according to the website. I've never shopped for hockey gear in the northern suburbs, so I'm not all that knowledgeable about that area. I've heard Dave's Sport Shop up in Fridley is pretty good though. I hear Hockey Zone is pretty decent too..I usually get my gear at Westwood in Bloomington or Apple Valley, but there's a great little shop in Eden Prairie as well.

Yeah the store is very close to daves, hockey zone, and hockey giant. Should stop by sometime in the area, I think you'll like it.

Yea, Lettermen's is cheaper, but Dave's has a way better slection IMHO and is more hockey knowledgable. And Dave's isn't as tricky to get to :lol:

Dave's will take care of you very well after the sale as well...

so what exactly is the difference in fit between the one75 and the supreme70/8090?? or is it the same??

[TBLfan 25]

one75 will be one90 specs. Basically, it's a completely different skate from the supreme 70 or 8090.

[k-ody.m 0]

yea i heard the one75 is pretty much a one90 skate well at least thats what i got from reading most of this topic. pretty excited for the one95 :)

[TBLfan 25]

I believe it is one90 specs but with the deeper fit, to be more specific. I know it is one90 specs(based on material).

*refering to one75

[kabby15 0]

your talking about one90 *exterior* material correct? the one75 has the "alive" liner doesent it?

The One75 has the tech-mesh.

[ahearn10 0]

One 75 does not have the alive liner

didn't see that ^^^^ sorry

[JR Boucicaut 3797]

Nope, same as ONE90

[gymmonster 4]

hmm I'm a little confused, will the one75 and one95 fit like the 8090 ? or does the supreme 70 already fit like the 8090? I'm only asking because my 8090 are about to bust and it is the only skate I've been able to say I'm 100% comfortable in

[TBLfan 25]

The one75 and one95 dont fit like the 8090

The supreme 70 does.

[shifter 0]

supreme 55? lol

[JR Boucicaut 3797]

Initial thoughts tomorrow.

[Wolfpack_1986 154]
