Mario rockin' Quests with ICM holders.

Now I don't feel so lame skating in my old-school skates.

I just recently sold a pair of Brand new in Box Nike Ignite 1's in size 8D on Ebay. I wonder if anyone on MSH bought them???

I miss nike honestly, i had a pair of quest v12's back in peewee i think it was? They were pretty crappy skates honestly but they were my first pair of expensive skates and i thought they were the greatest! So light and so wide, fit my foot perfect.

I was a part of the Vapor 10 implosion way back when. When my old Vapor 10 blew apart on me I went to the all white Nike. Then the inside of the Nike boot just collapsed on me after a few weeks (played 7/8 times a week then). I'll never forget looking inside the boot and seeing all of the lining falling apart and trying to figure out what to do. Ended up finishing that season in someone else's skates and got Bauer's second attempt at the Vapor 10 later.

Growing up playing hockey in the 70's and 80's probably made me more of a traditionist. Quality of the "Nike branded" equipment aside, am I the only one that always felt the swoosh just looked out of place on hockey gear, especially skates?

I still think it just looks wierd. I was happy with Nike incorporated the Bauer logo back in, happier when Nike sold the bauer line, and will be happiest when the swoosh is gone from the logo all together.

Off topic... I guess I'm just old now and don't adapt to change as well as I used to. I was okay with "RBK" and logo but I'm stuggling with the rebranded "Reebok" on the new stuff.

Unfortunately, I have to totally disagree with you. While the Swoosh may not be a "traditionalists" cup of tea, it was Nike that has helped revolutionize the Skate industry. Aesthetics, weight, construction, etc. Before Nike, every skate had some plastic, leather, Nylon, Maybe Composite in the sole. Since Nike got involved everything about skates has changed. It's unfortunate that Mark Parker didn't like the ROI in the hockey industry.

Was browsing eBay and thought somebody might want these. If my team was Red/White I'd be all over them as I had them back when I played HS hockey. Nike Virtuoso's

I think hes talking more about the swoosh logo its self than the way the whole skate looked.

$100 and shipping? Jeeeeezz.

Those gloves are kind of like "Crystal Pepsi" and we're kind of like "I love the 90s, part deux."

[gerbe3:16 19]

I know some of you guys are always on the lookout for the NIKE skates. Two I see on CL in Boston right now... both asking prices below $100.

Sports Exchange in Vancouver had a pair of used white Nike's, can't remember the size though but they are on consignment so its probably $70cdn and dropping.

If things go well i should be the proud owner of Ovechkins skates. Curious of what model they are though, theres a picture of them in show it off.

Sorry to say, but the one's he has are only a pair of lower-level roller boots with tuuks put on them.

PM me if you really want a good pair...I have a stock-pile of them. A couple brand new.

I wore the power ranger helmet in peewee, very comfortable. Might still have it laying around. If i had the money i would dress myself head to toe in classic nike gear.
