Vapor X:50 and X:60, break in compared to the XXXX

Recommended Posts

Is the boot on the X50 and X60 stiffer then the XXXX ? It didn't take me long at all the break in the XXXX, just wondering if I can expect the same break in period if I decide to get the X50 or X 60'S

The 60 is a little softer (IMHO) than the 40, so I think it breaks in a little easier.

The 50, is just the old 40, so it will be the same.

I never wore xxxx but coming from s17's to the 60's i was shocked.....there was no pain just having to get used to the different boot styles

My experience with XXX's, One90, and one95's has been zero break in process. It is important to Bauer to have an out of box fit so I wouldn't worry too much about it being a problem.

Well, I've been using my X60s for about three weeks now (3 times per week), and I'd say they are pretty well broken in now, but still not completely. Heat molding made a big difference, and I think it's needed with these skates. I'm also coming from Eastons, so part of what I might perceive as the "break-in" could just be adjusting to the different type of skate. I feel more on my toes in the vapors than I did even in the Eastons with their included heel lift.
