Picked up a pair of Reebok 8K hockey skates. Was really due for some new skates and wanted to invest in a good pair, something I'll keep for 5+ years. I got these for $250 (at Pro Hockey Life on clearance). There are only slight new features for this years 2012/13 version compared to the 8K 2010 model.
These fit amazing out of the box for me. I have pretty wide skated with EE (widest size available) and the heat moulding was even better. The pumps are just darn cool and offer some extra comfort/stiffness in the ankle. I do have some discomfort in the left foot on the side of my toe area. I had these heat formed twice to try to widen the boot more. Its more comfortable now but I get some pain here and there. Overall pretty happy with these skates.
