The Easton Stealth S17 white ice hockey skates are the premier hockey skates from Easton. The S17 white skates offer the same features as the black edition of the S17 skates but with the crisp white color scheme.
Easton has used Coil technology on the S17 LE skate. This utilizes one piece of carbon fiber composite material to construct the boot. This results in an extremely light weight skate that provides great flex, performance, and protection.
Easton has also used their Dry Flow™ system to release excess heat and moisture to provide a lighter, more comfortable fitting skate. Essentially this is a drain / vent in the bottom of the skate allowing moisture and heat escape. This is a nice touch because skates typically vary in a weight before and after games. This features works toward reducing this fluctuation in weight.
Easton has used a composite toe cap coated with a rubber exterior for lightweight performance and superior durability. The Clarino liner has a nice soft feel that offers great grip and a traditional feel.
