Bauer Ice Hockey Skates

Prior to 1933, all ice hockey skates were basically a blade strapped onto the skater's shoes or boots or with other methods of attachment including spring skates. Bauer came up with a design attaching the blade directly to the boot and the modern ice hockey skate was born. The first Bauer ice hockey skates to hit the market as one unit were called "Bauer Supreme" skates.

In recent history, Bauer signed hockey superstar Bobby Hull to endorse their ice hockey skates and usher in a new era for the company. The skates worn by Bobby Hull featured a new blade attachment system known as the TUUK holder. 1994 brought the new development of the TUUK chassis by Bauer: a new steel blade attachment system allowing skates to be lighter and more durable. When you buy Bauer skates, you purchase skates produced by a company with a proven track record.

Get the Right Size in Bauer Ice Hockey Skates
Choosing the size for your skates is different from purchasing a pair of tennis shoes. Your Bauer ice hockey skates need to feel a little tight on your feet to make sure every movement you make transfers to the skates. Measure your foot while wearing a heavy hockey sock to help you get the proper size. Be sure you make special note of the width of your foot to make sure you get the right skates.

If you are buying skates for a child, avoid the temptation of buying big so the child can grow into the skates. An oversized skate can cause ankle and foot damage.
