What is the fit difference? I am currently using x100 and I'm thinking about switching to CCM Tacks... I heard that the are extremely moldable too...

Tacks are going to fit more like a Nexus boot.  If you're in Vapors, and want to try CCM check out the Ribcore line.

Also the new jets are supposed to be close to a vapor feel.

Nope. Having demoed the jetspeeds and tried on the ribcor, the ribcor are closer to vapor fit. IMO, CCM seems to run about a .5 size larger than Bauer. I fit in a 6 supreme, but had to go down to 5.5 in jetspeed.

Very different. Tacks will be deeper, wider and don't open up in the forefoot like Vapors. Jetspeeds although have a tight heel, are much deeper than Vapors. Your Ribcores are going to be closest if you wanted a similar fit as stated above.

 

Also, all your CCM skates you'll be taking a size to .5 size down because of the heel pocket.

Would the tacks be much different than vapors in a EE?
