I loved my 705's when I had them in the late 90's to mid/late 00's. They're super durable but heavy (esp compared to today's skates). They had a good amount of volume from what I remember and were stiff for their time (but again, not that stiff compared to today's skates). Sizing was comparable to Bauer from what I remember, I wore an 8 back then and didn't go down to a 7.5 until a few years ago when I realized baking gave me that perfect fit (when I bought the Grafs skate baking wasn't the norm so I'm sure the 7.5 felt too tight when I tried it on). I swapped the Cobra holders for Tuuk Custom+ after 1 skate but aside from that they treated me really well for a long time.
