Just won a brand new pair of these on Ebay USA (im in UK). Had wanted a pair for a while, however never found a review.

Anyone ever have a pair and if so, how'd you find them?

Got bored of my One100s and fancied rocking a retro pair for a bit until the Makos are released.

Pretty sure this was the top of the range at the time.

Picked mine up for $55 plus international postage, although a guy is selling another pair for $349(!) on ebay at mo...cant see him getting that lol!

Basically just wanted to get some feedback on how they were for you, and anything to watch out for? One of my team mates said he loved his and would kill for another pair...

With all due respect, why did you want a pair for a while yet never read a review of the skates or tried them on?

From what I remember mine were VERY narrow in the heel and forefoot, and fairly high cut with a wideish toebox. Basically a similar shape found in the V12-Flexlite line but a narrower skate overall and not nearly as deep. They will be significantly heavier than your One100s as well.

Also, pretty sure I was brushing against the cap in a 7.5 or 8D in these and i currently wear a 7D in just about every Bauer skate.

At the time Nike skates ran about 1/2 size larger than Bauer (I was a 9.5 Bauer and a 10 Nike) and current Bauer skates run about 1/2 size smaller than they used to (I'm currently a 9 in Bauer). So I guess that means the Nike should run about a full size larger than current Bauer sizing.

I've got most of the Gretzky-esque Zooms, and had always fancied a pair of the Quests when I was younger - as for trying them on, I never got the chance at the time of release etc.

Thanks for the input guys, appreciated. Looking forward to trying them out, although I also ordered a pair of the One.9 too lol - go go Santa :)
