-
Recreational-Level
Recreational ice hockey skates are built for the new-to-hockey player or casual skaters that are looking for an affordable option. These are great starter skates, especially for youth players.
-
Performance-Level
Performance-level ice hockey skates are a great fit for players who are confident in their skating stride and are ready to take their on-ice performance to the next level. These players are on the ice 1-2 times a week playing mid-to-high level hockey.
-
Elite-Level
Elite-level ice hockey skates are built for the best performance, protection, durability, and comfort. These players are usually on the ice three times or more a week and are playing high-level hockey.
The molded RocketFrame Composite One-Piece boots boast upgraded stiffness for explosive power, long-lasting support, and superior heat moldability. Plus, the Game-Ready Fit 3.0 pre-bake process ensures the XF skates fit anatomically and feel nearly broken in before the player even bakes them.
Internally, the TotalDri Pro Liner with Polygiene features ADPT Memory Foam throughout, delivering next-level comfort, fit, and moisture management. After listening to feedback, CCM even repositioned pieces inside the boot to create a Heel Lock Zone for a more secure fit, enhancing control and stability during play.
The Step V-Steel blades are another standout feature with their consistent construction, highly polished finish for ultimate glide, and pro-preferred height for extended sharpening life, custom profiling options, and an improved angle of attack. They sit in the XS1 Holder with its enhanced dial system that is even easier to use while keeping blades securely locked into place all game long.
For the ultimate fitting experience that can be done without leaving the house, make sure to first Bake Your Skates at Home and then Check for Proper Skate Fit. If you are still unsatisfied with how they fit and feel, simply use the included pre-paid return label.

| TotalDri Pro Liner with Polygiene With immediate out-of-the-box comfort and advanced moisture-wicking abilities, the Tacks now feature Polygiene odor and bacteria protection. Since it is directly integrated into the liner fibers, it never washes out and helps prevent the growth of odor-causing bacteria from sweat and humidity. |
