I've seen it mentioned and tried to look it up on True's site, but its marketing is an afterthought. What would you like to know about them? They are fantastic. Here are pics of them. https://photos.app.goo.gl/78TTiq7masasLDrZ9 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can’t wait to see them in person but that might be a while because the two shops in CPH don’t stock new True stuff. Mostly what I'd like to know is how they compare to other outsoles.

I would say they are better than any other option on the market currently. Good support. Comfortable. Not too heavy.

Flexible and adaptable arch. Yes It's great that they have the metatarsal button! Four years ago, I replaced my VH insoles with Specialized Body Geometry Footbeds partly for the metatarsal button. They also offer 3 choices of arch heights. But if I ever need new footbeds, it's nice to know that True now offers a similar option.

The Pro had a nice rolled comfort edge top, the SVH didn't. Seemed odd not to include it on the very top end skate. Is there a reason for this? Could you clarify what you mean? The Cat9, Pro, SVH, and TF9 all appear to have the same top ankle surround construction in my eyes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Cat9, Pro, SVH, and TF9 all appear to have the same top ankle surround construction in my eyes. I can try to explain it, and I only saw the Pro and the SVH. From what I remember, the inside liner of the Pro came up and was folded back down, with the edge rolled back and "sandwiched" in the layers, creating a rolled edge. The SVH simply had all layers together with all their edges exposed. You could only see it when you looked down on the skate. If I get back to the store I'll take pics. Zoom in on the top skate second image and you can see the rolled edge: https://sidelineswap.com/gear/hockey/skates/5116182-true-catalyst-pro-size-7-5-skates Edited September 1, 2022 by BenBreeg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jbear 113 Report post Posted September 3, 2022 Long story...short version...two artificial hips so rotating through several types of skates (varying flexion, pitch, etc.) helps...physiologically. I play or coach 4-6x week, so...that's why. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hills 710 Report post Posted September 5, 2022 On 8/28/2022 at 5:40 PM, Sniper9 said: True never had the comfort edge for their full customs. And you don't need it. The top edge of their customs are soft and have no hard plastic in them so they are essentially comfort edges without the stupid print of comfort edge on them. Up until the most recent skate releases from ccm and Bauer, the comfort edge did very little anyways. Look at the vapor and as1s comfort edge. They were pathetic. As a goalie, the lack of comfort edge REALLY sucks on the True customs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes sir, I am over it because you have deemed it not worthy of discussion. It was a question, get off your high horse. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
