I don’t understand the internet obsession with those - especially the first gen version. They are quite literally the ugliest piece of hockey equipment I’ve ever seen, up there with the Nike quest moon man helmet.

But at the time they were way nicer than those MLx skates which generated the hype around these as they were the originals.

First Gen Mako’s were the first “clean” version of the monocoque shell at large scale retail.

The OG Makos are ugly, but super comfortable (at least for my feet) and have the zero negative speed skate concept for a lower price than VH/True skates. Now, I found the OG Makos went soft on me quickly and had other durability issues, but I still love my Mako 2's and the M7's I have converted for inline. For those in the market for Makos, I'd recommend looking for M7's, M8's or Mako II's as opposed to the OG Makos. I wouldn't pay more than $200 for the OG Makos as they really don't hold up well (although I'm over 200lbs and on the ice a lot between reffing and playing; so maybe they'd hold up better for someone lighter who is on the ice less. The M7's and Mako II's have been much more durable for me though).

my MLX have been incredibly durable though. I could care less what they look like, as long as they're not white (don't have those wheels). I'm still on my original pair of MLX, probably closing in on 10 years now?


always looking for non Reebok L & XL shells......

Agreed. I tried both models and I hated them.

I loved my MLX skates, but Easton screwed up big time with the Mako skates.

Mako II skates are the best skates I’ve worn.
