nicksmission14 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2011 Anyone skated in both or know how the fitment compares? Looks very similar at first glance... I loved my Nike Quest 1's more than any other skates combined with Superfeet.. Never been able to find another pair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sturdy22 29 Report post Posted March 16, 2011 I have 2 pairs of the Quest 1s( 1 pro 9D and 1 retail 9EE) and a pair of pro Flexlite 12s (8D),toes touch in all pairs. The Quests are my favorite. The Flexlites are wider, cut lower and boxy. I have not found a pair of skates that fit my foot like the Quests do. I have been nursing the first pair of quests since 2002 and I save the other pair for coaching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried to get Bauer to do something custom similar, didn't work out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Theres a pair size 12 on there right now (USA) - a pair will surface without doubt for you mate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like real stiff skates (Quest 1's I always thought were stiff as a board). I'm thinking if I can find a pair of those now in my size maybe they may be an option as well.Anyone know what the highest cut skate on the market is with the narrowest heel these days?
