similiar skate to Graf 750?

[mmmjays]

Hey guys, I'm looking for a skate similar to the Graf 750. I tried the 750's and they fit my feet perfectly, but the price is a little much for me. I was in a size 7 wide. Any suggestions?

Similar? Try the Graf 650. Or the 7-50.

Both are less $$.

I did get a chance to try the 650's. they did not fit my feet as well.

Anyone know how the bauer 7000 compares to the 750's?

whats the graf 7-50? never heard of that one....

The Bauer wont fit you as well since Bauer skates a narrower and thinner.

I got Graf G50 from Switzerland, not that expensive and my best purchase in years. I got wide and thick feet. The CCM EE wide size we fitting good on the width, but nothing fits well on the thickness except for the Graf.

If I would have been born at the beginning of the 1900's I wouldn't have been took in the army, that the only advantage my feet have! LOL

There's a few but I only remember those two:
Wüthrich Sport AG - Langnau - Sport, Freizeit und Hockey Ausrüstung - Hockeyshop hockeystore.ch
PGS - Professional Hockey Goalie Shop - Kloten - Switzerland

I think you should spend on good skates, why, it's your foundations, every moves starts from your feet. You stand on them and push, move with them for 2 hours straight and more. So you need something that will perform to your limits.

Build a castle on clay, it won't hold, build a hut on croncrete, it will last way longer. That's how I think.

Agreed w/ Chakal - 7000's fit nothing like Graf's



Really happy w/ my 7000's - but wouldn't rule out buying Graf's in the future.

Except, if Bauer decides to build goalie skates around the One95's - by far the best fitting player skate I have ever purchased.
