Mission Fuel 120 XP

Recommended Posts

There is a set of these for sale on my local CraigsList. The guy says they are brand new / never worn so I'm interested in them. Does anyone know how these skates performed? Do Missions tend to fit wide or narrow? I'm not very familiary with the Mission brand, but at the potential price I could get them at I feel it would be worth it to check them out. I tried to search around the forum for something on these but didn't come up with anything. Thanks.

Edit: Oops...I did stumble across this, but if anyone has additional information that would be great.

I can't speak to the skates in particular, but the Pitch3 holders/steel are great. (I have them on my Kor's).

I had a pair of 120 XPs in a EE. I have a fairly wide foot. They are bakeable. Not really sure how moldable they are with a bake. I baked mine multiple time but never got them to fit quite right and didn't see tremendous difference pre vs. post bake. Kor's in a D fit like a glove after 1 baking. Loved the Pitch3 holders and steel. They are a taller fitting boot, supposed to be designed with speed and power in mind if I recall correctly. As opposed to the lower cut AP which were supposed to provide increased agility. They were a nice skate, AP & XP were Mission's top of the line before the NME or very close to it. Never got used to the neoprene like inner liner and just couldn't get them to fit my foot. But NO off the shelf skate will ever fit my genetically defective feet.
