stick9 913 Report post Posted January 17 Growing up I lusted after a pair of 301's with clear tuuks. I am tempted to give the 501's a go just for kicks. https://www.icewarehouse.com/Daoust/catpage-DAOUSTB.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stick9 913 Report post Posted January 19 The 701 looks to be a serious skate with some interesting specs like a clarino liner and some version of coated or treat black steel. At that price point, if I were looking I would try a pair. From what I could find, it's one guy not a major corporation. He owns the Daoust name and is trying to bring it back and be true to their heritage. I think the industry needs this. No clue if he'll be successful or not but it's nice to have options. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xstartxtodayx 354 Report post Posted January 19 I'm all for it, if anything we need more variety in the mid to high performance levels, not saying they need to build a pro level skate but something most beer leaguers could really enjoy. The 701 looks interesting and the 501 in white looks gorgeous. Now will they do a blue holder like the old ICM's Gretzky rocked? Maybe this opens the door for some other classic brands to come back... looking at you Micron, I would so rock some new modern Mega Air 90's. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
malcb33 103 Report post Posted Friday at 08:04 PM Seems like they have a very similar holder to the new Warrior skate. I wonder if they come from the same factory? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beerleaguecaptain 1005 Report post Posted Sunday at 01:28 PM Good to see Daoust and Warrior entering the market.. I hope they make a dent. That said, still no word from ,my current employer (HM) on whether or not we will get them in store. If HM and PH don't get them they wont make it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may be something that may be better received in Europe and not north America. Just like how graf is still hanging around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am 99% the only major retailer getting them is Peranis. There are a couple LHS in the USA that will have them but not many. Under 10 doors it looks like for the beginning Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Under 10 doors it looks like for the beginning Both Ice Warehouse and PH have them. It's a brand older guys playing beer league remember. Those same guys don't really want to spend $1200 on ski boots. I can totally see guys like that giving them a shot. Not saying they will succeed. More so just pointing out there is a path.
