The Bauer Vapor XR4 Roller Hockey Skate offers some higher end features at a mid level price point. The XR 4 uses the same outsole and frame as the XR3, but comes with indoor Labeda wheels and faster ABEC 7 bearings. The quarter package used is a sublimated woven nylon, providing solid durability and increased response. 

On the XR4 liner, Bauer incorporated a Hydrophobic microfiber material to decrease odor and keep your feet dry. The tongue on the XR 4 is a comfortable 2 piece felt with metatarsal guard. This guard prevents lace bite and helps cushion impacts. The XR4 provides a great value for an intermediate to advanced player.
