Used Bauer VAPOR 3X Senior Hockey Skate Senior 9

Used Bauer Vapor 3X Senior Hockey Skate (Senior Size 9)

The Bauer Vapor 3X Senior Hockey Skate is an entry-to-mid-level performance boot from Bauer's Vapor lineup (2022-2024 models), optimized for agile, quick-turning players who prioritize speed and responsiveness over maximum stability. This senior size 9 (D width standard; fits foot length ~11.3-11.5 inches or US shoe size ~10.5) features a lightweight composite construction with thermoformable elements for a custom fit, making it ideal for recreational to intermediate adult skaters (ages 18+) in house leagues or drop-in games. In the used market, these skates are a fantastic value for agile forwards or players upgrading from beginner gear, often showing light liner wear or holder scratches but maintaining their flex and edge after 40-60 hours of use at 50-70% off retail (~$200-300 new).

Key Features:

• Digi Comp or Flex Comp Quarter Package: Lightweight composite boot with thermoformable properties molds to your foot for a snug, supportive fit; emphasizes forward flex for explosive acceleration and quick maneuvers, while reducing weight by ~20% compared to prior models.
• Asymmetrical Toe Cap: Minimizes negative space around the toes for better energy transfer and agility, enhancing takeoff speed and control during tight turns—hallmark of the Vapor line.
• Pro Stock Comfort Tongue: 40 oz felt tongue with lace-bite protection and comfort edging balances support and flexibility, preventing irritation during long shifts.
• Hydrophobic Liner: Moisture-wicking, grippy interior secures the foot in place for consistent strides; antimicrobial treatment fights odor for multi-game wear.
• Lightspeed 2 or LS Edge Holder with LS+ Runner: Tool-free blade system with stainless steel runners for durability and easy sharpening; promotes precise edge hold on indoor ice.
• Fit Profiles: Available in Fit 1 (low volume/narrow), Fit 2 (medium), or Fit 3 (high volume/wide)—size 9 most common in Fit 2 for balanced performance.
