What people are saying about the 3x:

👍 Pros
These skates are a step up from recreational skates but without the hefty price tag of top-of-the-line models.
They were perfect after I baked them. The blades took some time getting used to, but made skating way easier.
These skates are unreal. Sliiight learning curve (but I've also been using the wrong size, which doesn't help), but otherwise great.
👎 Cons
If you're a powerful skater, you might want to consider a stiffer boot from the Bauer Vapor Hyperlite or Supreme lines.
I like my skates tied tight. And due to this, the top eyelets of these skates did not last much beyond the warranty period.
The plastic eyelet material is really tough to get tight around upper foot and ankles. Low volume and shallow, and I ultimately went with a different pair.
The 3x Pro is made of light materials and is super durable. It's a pro model, so it has top-level comfort with high-quality foam and an asymmetrical toe cap. The lower part of the skate is softer, while the upper part is stiffer, allowing for more support. The 2X Pro was such a hit, and it's kind of hard to follow up... but they made a decent skate with the 3X Pro.
