Bauer Vapor X15 Hockey Skate

[andriy716]

How much is it worth? i have a pair of these and they are awsome but now the size is to small and im looking to sell.

[icehockeywarehouse]

@andriy716 I don't know how much they would be worth if they are used. I would just ry putting them on Ebay.

These are great skates for the of season in the summer and play the house league just to stay in shape also great for after practice with friends or open hockey

[nikebauerx15]

I love these skates they by far are my favorite what do you suggest for me to use next?

[icehockeywarehouse]

@nikebauerx15 If you liked these, I would just stick with the new Vapor line.

[flaifl]

plz tell me this or the ccm vo5 ??????

[icehockeywarehouse]

@flaifl The CCM Vector 5 was a higher level skate, but these will both be hard to find. The replacements would be the Bauer Vapor X2.0 and the U+ 06 skates.

@icehockeywarehouse hey, nice vids, you explain very good, i have a queston, on Vapors are they to narrow, ive wore supremes and flexlites and i want some vapors but ive got average to wide feet, would i fit in a pair of vapors thx

[icehockeywarehouse]

@TomuRyuu You may need to go with the wider version of the Vapor skates.

I got these for my son and he loves them. They hold up well. This was his first year of playing, so I got these because there were not the cheapest but not expensive. They hold a sharpening very well and look great. Well that all don't meen shit! I put these on to use when I needed a pair to coach one day and they where the worst most uncomfortable skate. My feet still hurt! I feel so bad I put my son through this pain, I will never again buy cheap skates. I am buying him a new pair now.

[callmemtv]

do i need to sharpen right out the box (theses r my first pair of skates)

[icehockeywarehouse]

@callmemtv Yes, they do not come sharpened.

Erik at IW Hockey

[callmemtv]

do you bake them?

[icehockeywarehouse]

@callmemtv You can, but because this boot is not extremely stiff it is not really necessary. You should be fine just breaking them in without baking.

Erik at IW Hockey

[chittychad18]

How long does it take to break in the old fashioned way if each day has 2 hour sessions? I'm a little annoyed ( even tho I went through this with baseball gloves), I bought these just so I dont feel pain anymore

[icehockeywarehouse]

@chittychad18 shouldnt take long with this level of skate.

hey tyson i have x 15s brand new and im a sixe 5.5 ee and i have a pressure on both feet and i already got them heat molded. i dont know whether to heat mold them again or shoul i get insoles.

[icehockeywarehouse]

@dawp1036 Yeah I don't think you will get much benefit from baking the x15 skates a second time.

[DucksHockeyFan]

Only one thing i can say about these skates. They are flippin beast! no joke these are by far the best skates ive skated on. there great

[xwldxnajdx]

why their is no size 9E in your website ? only 9EE and 9D

what's the difference between the D and EE for the vapor ? I have to order it from your website very soon and I have to ask these questions because I'm going to get a skates for me and my friends

[icehockeywarehouse]

@xwldxnajdx Bauer just does not make that particular skate in a E width.

Tyson at IW Hockey

[xwldxnajdx]

I'm getting a skate from your website and I'm really confused, I have a wide leg and I was thinking about the Bauer supreme one20 size 9EE, so is size 9EE in the vapor x15 the same width as the supreme one20 9EE ?

[icehockeywarehouse]

@xwldxnajdx No a supreme 9EE will be a little wider than a vapor 9EE.

I bought a pair of Easton EQ2's several months ago, but the blade broke free of the runner one day when I was playing shinny. Rather annoyed, I returned them to the store (which offered a 1 year warranty vs the 30 day Easton warranty) and got my money back and went and invested an extra $50 in these. No regrets whatsoever. The skates fit great and have a nice feel to them. I love these skates!

[evilgeneric]

hello tyson...are you able to bake the skates or is that more for higher models

[icehockeywarehouse]

@evilgeneric You can bake lower level skates but you don't really get much out of it like you would on higher skates because they are so much stiffer.

I got these for only 100 dollars at our hockey store in Arizona, i was lucky though.. Arizona has almost no hockey places because it's so hot but we found the place while going to visit my grandma.

10/10 Great skates...I wear size 6 (Size 7 shoe)

[EmppuStylezZLTD]

are they good for wide feet?

[nprevo22]

would you say that this skate gives your foot pretty good protection from pucks on the sides of the skate? i had a pair of bauers one time that didnt have much protection at all on the sides and it killed me.

[icehockeywarehouse]

@nprevo22 I would say the protection is pretty basic. You get more protection the higher you go in the skate liner because the materials are denser and stiffer. So these are not very stiff not offering a ton of protection.

[dieseltruks11]

how do i switch the blade to these particular skates there is no screw and i need new blades

[insanation100]

do these compare to the supremeONE 20's? im on a short budget

[icehockeywarehouse]

@insanation100 Yes, both of those skates are around the same level. Biggest difference will be the fit.

[insanation100]

@icehockeywarehouse sry to bug you again but iwanted to add that my ccm's are sort of tight on the sides they are D width should i move t an EE?

[insanation100]

@icehockeywarehouse sorry to bug you but my CCM's are tight on the sides. They D in width. Should I move to an EE width or is that too wide

[icehockeywarehouse]

@insanation100 Yes sounds like you would benefit from a wider skate.

[Harvey2101]

Im getting these skates, any idea where i can buy them for about £100 ? Thanks.

[icehockeywarehouse]

@Harvey2101 We are currently selling these for $89.95, but cannot ship Bauer outside the US. If you know anyone in the states, we could ship to them, or you could use a package forwarding service like BONGO US.

[28clockwork]

@Harvey2101 yeh mate you can get them for a £100 at ice hockey office i think there in germany but they ship all around europe im getti8ng them

[sr016ify]

I Want Those but I just got vectors.

Should I sell my vectors and

Get those if I want them?

[icehockeywarehouse]

@sr016ify If the Vectors fit you good then I would stick with them. Bauer skates have a different fit, which may not work for you.

[Ovechkin50g]

I just got them

[planbsk8er891]

those skates are sweet i bought some yesterday and had them baked today... the only bad part is that the dumb ass bitch that works at hockey stop was on the phone with his friend and left the skates in the oven long and theres brown spots on the skates

[tskblackbelt]

Is this a women's skate? Because i just bought a regular size 10 pair from hockeymonkey, and on the box it says it women, but im a guy and it fits right?

[icehockeywarehouse]

@tskblackbelt All skates can be used by either a man or a woman. What you are most likely seeing is the conversion to Women's sizing or something like that. If they fit will you are fine.

@icehockeywarehouse thank you so much... i skated twice in them already they're awesome

[krissa661]

15 years old, been playing for a year

[krissa661]

really confused on what skates im gonna buy... do you recomend these? im well over learning to skate but not that pro. want as best skates as i can for the price, dunno if im gonna pick this or the x20, is there really much difference? x20 cost twice the money here.

[planbsk8er891]

@krissa661 i just bought them yesterday and they are amazing. the difference between the x15 and x20 is that the x20 is just a little bit lighter. not worth spending and extra 50 dollars. and get them at a hockey shop on a college campus. thats the cheapest place to get hockey gear

[mitten13]

great review. one question though.Are the blades on these replaceable? thanks.

[icehockeywarehouse]

Unfortunately, they are not replaceable. The X30's are the most affordable skates in the Vapor line that have replaceable blades.

[mitten13]

ok,thanks for replying

[MrJumboFun1]

just baught it today

[MrNjdevilsfan30]

these are really tight how much do they cost

[icehockeywarehouse]

Check out our site for guaranteed lowest prices.

[bearsjsav21]

Are these like the X30's and above in that they can be heat molded (baked) to fit around the wearers foot?

[CWSammis]

all skates can be heat molded around the wearers foot, so yea

[ThaKidLid]

Go with the size 8. I wear a size 10 1/2 and I play bantam. Yeah a half inch will not do any bad. If it is to big you can wear double socks until you grow a little bit.

[stefanokk]

ive a Question witch skates are better Vapor X15 or Xlite? becuase im getting new skates but i heart that Vapor X15 are built for faster skating and sliding then the Vapor Xlite ( i want to be so fast as can because im a Fast Builded player

[icehockeywarehouse]

I would go with the X15. The X15 is utilizing current materials and construction design from Bauer.

[chudes11]

What about between X15, X20 and X30? Is there much difference?

[icehockeywarehouse]

Best way to compare is watch all three vids and compare specs. But biggest differences between those are going to be stiffness in the quarter package.

[icehockeywarehouse]

If you are growing fast sometimes you can get away with a 1/2 size larger but I would not recommend going much larger than that because it will start to compromise the performance of the skate.

[BadBramiBoy]

Hey!

I was going to buy an X30, but now i see them, they look nice, how are they compared to the X30's?
