Intro & New Features

Transitioning from the S-series to the M-series of skates, Bauer’s Supreme line debuts the M5 Pro skates as a new high-performance skate for 2022, second only to the Mach. Similar to the Mach, the M5 Pro rolls out many new and effective technologies to get you to the next level, including a 3D Lasted Carbon CURV quarter package, Aerofoam ankle padding, and a LockFit liner.

Boot Construction & Stiffness Profile

A key component of the Supreme line is the load and transfer systems, and the M5 Pro’s build is designed to increase the player's ability to get the most out of their stride. Bauer integrated 3D Lasted Carbon CURV Composite in the construction, which makes the skate both lightweight and thermoformable. The Thermoformable Anaform Upper adds to the moldable properties of the boot.

Liner & Internal Padding

The skates are outfitted with a Lock-Fit liner for extra grip, durability, and moisture management, so you can be comfortable and perform at your best. The skates use Aerofoam Technology in the ankle padding, which is designed a bit thicker than conventional foam but is more form-fitting and thermoformable.

Asymmetrical Toe Cap

For a better overall fit and to negate any unused space within the boot, Bauer turned to using an asymmetrical toe cap, a concept that has been observed in previous high-end Bauer skates. This isn’t necessarily new technology, but Bauer went ahead with the Supreme M5 Pro skates and enhanced the toe further for an even better fit.

Tendon Guard

Bauer’s original Flex tendon guard has been refined in the new Reflex tendon for 2022. This tendon does not use inserts, and its aggressive shape and flex notches add spring to your stride while keeping it tough enough to recoil back quickly, ready to strike again.

Tongue

The M5 Pro skates are equipped with a Reflex Classic Pro 52oz felt tongue for a comfortable, more traditional feel that will also provide the premium protection you need against slashes, shots, and lace bite. The felt is thick and high-quality while also being optimized for greater malleability and range of motion.

Insoles

The Supreme M5 Pro skates use a Lock-Fit footbed, completing the lining. Lock-Fit is designed to, as the name suggests, lock your foot in place and make it easier for you to push off and keep control of your skating.

Lacing System

The M5 Pro uses a standard flex facing lace system along the eyelets with improved durability and reliability in the materials used. The back of the skate is reinforced with a tough reflex tendon guard to keep that delicate area covered, in addition to implementing some extra push and power to your stride.

Graphics

Keeping to the classic theme of the Supreme line, the M5 Pro is mainly coloured black with yellow, cybernetic graphics and accents. “M5 Pro” and the new Bauer logo are also on display above the ankles and heel.

Steel Runner, Holder & Blade Profile

The Supreme M5 Pro hockey skates feature the Tuuk Lightspeed Pulse steel, which is a premium runner that delivers great edge retention and increased glide. This allows for easier sharpening and increased durability. Bauer used a high polish finish to give the steel a refined look.

To hold the blade in place, the Supreme M5 Pro skate uses Tuuk Lightspeed Edge, which is the same as it was in the previous Supreme Ultrasonic skates.
