ebladeshockey8 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2009 Is the 230 dollar price difference between the ONE75 and ONE55 skates really worth it? Are they really worth the extra money? I'm in need of a relatively light skate for wide foots, so im looking for a surpreme because all of the vapors ive had just werent wide enough...im also looking to spend not more than maybe 250, maybe 300 if the skate is that good...

jcp2 2 Report post Posted March 25, 2009 I looked at and tried on both skates, with the difference for me being the coarser mesh liner in the One55 and the smoother liner in the One75. I liked the liner in the One75 better, so I got it, but if they only had my size in the One55, I would have got that instead (that was what I wanted originally). I'm not such a great skater to take full advantage of the One75 performance advantages, but I knew that going into the purchase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd try out the One55 and maybe a leftover One70 if you can find one... honestly I say try on as many as you can and take as much time as you can just trying them on and getting a feel for each.

epstud74 24 Report post Posted March 25, 2009 I dont think so. It has a lot more volume than the One90. Try on the two pairs of skates, you'll notice a difference in fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

saba 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2009 Right good question cause for me the one75 is just as wide in the forefoot if not a bit wider there and more narrow in the heel, which was perfect for my foot. I am just D wide. I was told that the one75 wide, is WIDE in the forefoot, just my 0.2 Came from XXV 9.5EE much happier feet and finally locked in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xstartxtodayx 343 Report post Posted March 26, 2009 Yea Saba is right, the One75 isn't narrower in the forefoot just the heel/ankle area, they do loosen a touch after baking but still pretty narrow back there, good for some ppl (like me) but not for others.

Hockeydog 8 Report post Posted March 26, 2009 I am in a Mission AGX but am looking for something a little less stiff and slightly higher in the boot. I am assuming the one75 is much stiffer? Is the One55 stiffness on par with the Vapor XXV? All 3 are available at my LHS and my foot falls right where either a Vapor or One55/75 would fit. Just looking for a skate that has the right amount of flex for the low intermediate level skater that I am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
