Featuring True's NeuroFit+ Technology, the one-piece carbon fiber shell and thermoplastic molding zones wrap the foot for a truly custom-like fit after the baking process. This results in unmatched comfort and the best-in-class fit, power and control.
Brought down from the 9X4 is the all-new MotionCuff Collar System, which allows the ankle to move freely and naturally while providing a fantastic connection with the boot so power is transferred directly to the ice. Internally, the HydroFoam multi-density foams offer improved moisture-wicking and comforting properties to keep your feet dry and responsive through every push.
True's Shift Attack Holder is designed with Postlock Technology that allows the holder and toe to be flush against the post. With a better toe to post connection, goalies will have explosive cross-crease pushes. In case of a damaged runner, the holder comes with BenchChange Technology so goalies can swap it out quickly and get back in the game.
