The Bauer Supreme MX3 Ice Hockey Skates are the culmination of Bauer Supreme tradition and innovative modern technologies. The flagship MX3 uses the premier Curv© Composite Quarter, an injected-stability lacing system, a 3-Flex Tongue and Tuuk Fusion Runners; making it the lightest and most-efficient skate to ever hit the hockey market.
The featherlight feel of the MX3 was accomplished through a handful of weight-saving technologies. The most noticeable is the premium Curv© Composite Quarter Package that offers superior stiffness, support and weight-reduction. It offers an anatomical, close-to-the-foot fit with excellent heat-moldability.
New to the Supreme Line is the Injected Stability Lacing System that was first debuted on the APX2 ice hockey skate. Bauer improved on the original design by adjusting it to better wrap over the top of the foot, offering a refined fit with all of the added benefits of increased stability and support. The 3-Flex Tongue with re-engineered Curv© Composite inserts allows for customizable forward flex and spring-return, while simultaneously saving weight.
The lowers consist of the new Edge Holder that sits 3 mm higher in the front and rear post, allowing players to get over even further on their edges without bottoming out. These hold the Tuuk LS Fusion Edge Runners that fuses steel and aluminum together, providing a 27% weight savings compared to a full steel runner. Internally, Bauer used their HydraMax 2 Liner with Comfort Edge and strategic wear patches.

-Tongue flex inserts + great puck protection
-Back calf flex (Soo nice to have, more mobile)
-D width on Supremes fit perfectly for people with E width feet.

Comments: best skate I have ever used and owned.Bauer has definitely mad some major improvements from the previous total one NXG skate. but the MX3, when I put them on I was very surprised and impressed on the comfort and lightweight feel for these skates. the new holders really helps getting into tight turns and the trigger comes in handy very well. these are the best skates I have ever owned but if you have the cash I would definitely buy them
