A Guide to the New Bauer Skate Sizing: Science of Fit
Built from over 800,000 foot scans, Bauer has created a way for you to choose your skate “style” first, and “fit” second.
WHICH STYLE ARE YOU?
The Vapor collection is designed for players who put a premium on agility and lateral movement.
The Supreme collection is for players who value straight away speed and acceleration.
Each collection is available in 3 fits, so every foot shape is covered.
WHICH FIT ARE YOU?
FIT 1: Low volume, on the narrow side. Similar to a traditional Vapor fit.
FIT 2: Medium volume & width. Similar to a traditional Supreme fit.
FIT 3: High volume & wide width. Similar to a traditional Nexus fit.
Simply choose the style that fits your game, then choose the fit that best suits your foot. It’s that simple. If you have any questions just reach out to the experts at Sports Etc!
