Bauer Supreme M4 Intermediate Hockey Skates

Choosing the right fit profile is a key element in deciding which skate and fit best suits you. Here at The Hockey Shop, we have a team of experts, as well as our very own Bauer 3D scanner that can help you into the correct size and fit to keep you at your best.

Boot Construction & Stiffness Profile
The Supreme line puts a large emphasis on powerful skate stride, which is where the integration of the 3D-Lasted Flex Composite quarter package comes in. The Flex Comp construction keeps that stiffness you need to support your full stride while also keeping the skate lightweight and thermoformable. It’s not so stiff that it makes the skate difficult to break in, however. Bauer has decreased the concentration of reinforcement fibres in the boot, making the skates easier to flex and skate in for developing players.

Liner & Internal Padding
For the M4, Bauer used a hydrophobic microfibre liner along the inside to wick away moisture and repel odour while you play. Including this kind of liner ensures that you stay comfortable in your skates all game long without the potential distraction of a wet boot. The skates also use Aerofoam Technology in the ankle padding, which is designed a bit thicker than conventional foam but is more form-fitting and thermoformable.

Toe Cap
The M4 skate uses a standard toe cap to keep the construction simple and to accommodate a wider variety of foot shapes and sizes.

Tongue
The tongue is made of an updated 48oz pro stock felt material with an injected metatarsal guard. This combination of comfort and protection is designed to form fit around and over the metatarsus area for extra coverage, and the thick felt coupled with the tough exterior help shield the front ankle area of your foot from harm while you play.

Insoles
The skates use a Form Fit+ footbed complete with memory foam for premium comfort on the landing.

Steel Runner, Holder & Blade Profile
To hold the blade in place, the Supreme M4 skate uses Tuuk Lightspeed Edge, which is the same as it was in the previous highest-end Supreme Ultrasonic skates. For steel, the M4 uses an LS+ runner, which better matches the aftermarket geometry; this means you will be able to find the same steel sold separately in case you need an extra pair.

Graphics
Keeping to the classic theme of the Supreme line, the M4 is mainly coloured black with yellow, cybernetic graphics and accents. “M4” and the new Bauer logo are also on display above the ankles and heel.
