Bauer Nexus 8000 Senior Hockey Skate (2014)

The Nexus 8000s are built with Anaform Fit technology that now combines the traditional Deep-V heel fit in Bauers proprietary 3-D lasted and Curve Composite construction. The Deep-V heel fit locks your heel in place within the skate to ensure the skate reacts to your every movement the way the hockey gods intended. Further, as the most widely used assembly throughout the games highest level, the Deep-V, 3-D, and Curv Composite construction are the most anatomically correct insole out there for you to experience quicker take-off speed, increased power, and maximum comfort. Unique to the Nexus 8000 is the Classic ultra-thick, pro-felt tongue. This ultra-thick two-piece pro felt tongue has a molded metatarsal guard that provides maximum comfort and protection from lace bite, as well as those random pucks you might take. On the inside, the 8000s rep a Hydra-Max Liner, the moisture-wicking and abrasion-resistant liner with integrated comfort wrap, so that your feet are still happy even after hours of play. Plus add the Total Edge comfort pads that minimize wear and tear around the tops of the ankles keep you and your skates happy for an extended amount of time. Putting it all to the ice is a combination of technologies all working in unison. From the boot down, you'll find a composite outsole that shifts more energy to the ice.
