The Bauer Vapor X2.7 Goalie Skate newest entry level skate from Bauer, composed of a new 3D Tech PU Quarter and a memory foam ankle pad, major improvements have been brought to these skates so that no matter the price, everybody can have a comfortable and competitive skate without breaking the bank.
New Features for the skate
Bauer introduces a new 3D Tech PU Quarter on this skate. Using this material, Bauer is able to keep the skate rather stiff without sacrificing too much weight or performance.
Skate Fit Profile
The Vapor series aims to be the skate for those who don’t fit the supreme line, or those that don’t find it comfortable. The 3mm extended facing creates a deeper fitting skate for those with any special requirements when it comes to skates.
Boot Construction/Stiffness/Level of Play
The boot is made up of 3D Tech PU Quarter with the aim of keeping the boot rather stiff. The boot will have some flex to it as it won't be as stiff as skates with carbon fiber reinforced skates although it will provide a nice wrap around the foot for comfort from every angle of the skate.
Liner/Internal Padding
The Bauer X2.7 goal skate is lined with Bauers grip liner, this locks in your foot and keep it in place while making any movements on ice, preventing lost transfer energy. The skate is also equipped with a memory foam ankle pad to also keep your foot in place and add more comfort.
Tongue
The Vapor X2.7 goal skate has a felt tongue that is thick and flexible. This tongue prevents lace bite before it even happens and wont restrict you when going into your stance.
Holder/Steel
The Bauer X2.7 Youth Goalie Skate comes with a Tuuk Lightspeed Pro Goalie Holder, equipped with a stainless steel goalie blade.
Graphics
Sleek black and grey boot with red accents surround this skate to make sure you dont on perform well but you also look good while doing it. Sporting an X2.7 logo at the top of the ankle as well as a red stripe along the back of the foot that says Vapor. Lastly, the boot includes a red stripe near the toe cap to set it apart from the pro Vapor model.

Hockey Goalie Skate Sizing Guide
- Things to consider:
- Age
- Measurement from longest point of foot (cm)
When sizing for the correct size of a skate, we always advise taking the measurements below from a sitting position and not standing upright. Additional weight on your foot/feet can skew your result and misrepresent your foot size. The reason for this is that as you put your full weight on your feet, the arch of your foot will collapse and cause your foot to appear wider or longer than it actually is.
As well, please be aware that skate sizes and shoes sizing do not match exactly. As a general guideline, skates size 1 ½ sizes smaller than shoes.
It is ideal for a player to have a tight, snug fit both in length and width as this will provide the best performance and durability. If a skate is too big you will feel your feet slide around and you will not get the full performance out of the skates and can also develop calcium deposits - Haglund’s Deformity or “Bauer Bumps” for lack of a better term although this issue doesn’t only occur with Bauer models.
An Ideal Fit: Stand with your skates laced and your heel snug in the heel cup. Your toes should just barely feather the end of the toe box. Bend forward into a skating stance. Your toes should pull back slightly from the toe box. Once heat fit, your foot should slide back into the foams of the skate and the length you felt in your skating stance will more-or-less become you standing size.
To obtain the measurement above you will need a soft tape measure and a pen. Start by placing the tape measure flat along the ground in a straight line. Sitting in a chair, place your foot down with the longest point of your foot (usually big toe, or second toe) in line with the edge of the tape measure. Make sure you keep your weight off of your foot. Take a pen and mark the tape measure where the edge of your heel ends. Record this length in cm. This measurement will correspond with the sizing charts in each brand below, if you do not see your exact measurement, select the size with the next size increment above your measurement (i.e. you measure 24.9 cm, you would select 25.1 cm or Size 6).
Sizing Children for Growth Room: If you are purchasing skates for your child, it is common and usually recommended to add some additional room in the skate to increase the last, we recommend no more than 1 full size. Feet stop growing around ages 15 – 15 ½, and from ages 14 - 15 ½ we would recommend adding only half (1/2) a size in length. Follow the same measurement instructions as above, once you obtain your true size move up ½ or 1 size.
***Sizing of skates is very preference based and these measurements will not guarantee a fit that is right for you. Please use these as general guidelines, for the most accurate fit we always recommend getting measured by a professional skate fitter at our store or your local pro shop.***
