Tech-mesh Vapors in 2022?

[flip12 699]

Does Bauer still offer tech-mesh as an option in custom Vapors? I haven't seen a recent Vapor model dressed like that in the last few years.

I've been nostalgicurious about Vapors lately. My last pair of Bauers were the original generation Vapor 8s. I loved how they got soft around the top 3 eyelets. The only pro I know of still wearing the tech-mesh build (was it called Mosoca towards the end of the glorious '10s? (Before the CoronApocalypse...)) is Thrill Kessel. Are there any others out there?

As far as I know, the X2.9 was the last tech mesh retail model.  Doubt it's a custom option other than pro stock.

Bauer used to do them as customs, I think they were called V-Cuts. @dkmiller3356has a pair. There are quite a few NHLer's in tech-mesh boots. They look like the regular curv version minus the shine. Jonathan Toews is probably the most notable.

I love mine and when they give up the ghost I'll be really challenged to find a skate that works for me.
