Overview
The Reebok White K Pump Ice Hockey Skate is a unique skate to Reebok's newest K line up. The White K comes with a white trimmed boot, the white Reebok E-Pro holder and the white felt on the tongue which gives the skate a custom look.
The White K is basically a mash up between the 12K and the 14K. It has the same tongue as the 12K, and the same quarter package as the 14K, but all three skates share the same Reebok E Pro blade holder and the performance lite scalloped runner.
Reebok has redesigned the pump for this years line up. They have moved The Pump™ slightly back towards the Achilles tendon to get better air flow into the bladder's and keeping it out of harms way. Reebok also did give it a sleeker look as the actual pump and release does not stick out as much, also giving The Pump™ better protection around it.

Comments: Great price for great skates. Perfect upgrade from entry level skates. The pump really helps with customizing the fit. I definitely had better power and had more confidence to execute maneuvers that I could not do with entry levels. Great protection. I also really like the lace lock which I felt was a must because I have a hard time getting skates just right. This just aids with getting the perfect fit especially if you donÕt like wax laces. If you are looking to upgrade from an entry level skateÉthis is the one.

Comments: These are good skates. Fit very well, they are light and durability is decent. Break in was seemless with no hot spots. Something you would expect out of a higher priced skate. Protection isn't as good as some of the higher priced skates but that is to be expected at this price point. For the money, this is a very hard skate to beat.

Comments: I love theses skates. They fit extremely well on my feet, and the pump holds the ankle in place very well. I think the white is a nice and unique look. And for the price, they are great skates.
