Wondering if anyone has any insight on the new Bauer fit system and how it has changed the fit of the 2X pro. I know the 2X pro was originally available in D/EE but it has since adopted the 1,2,3 fit system.
Reason for asking is that I recently bought a pair of Fit 2 3X pro and the volume is great but the forefoot width is too narrow for me. I’ve found a pair of closeout 2X pro online in a EE so I’m wondering if I’ll get the width I’m looking for with those.

I think you will, the fit 2 felt narrower than a vapor EE, but I wore the 1x2.0, so unless the 2xpro was different, they should be wider in the forefoot than the current Fit 2. Just be warned that I found I had to punch out the heel to give me some extra depth and in the end I didn't keep them because they did not have sufficient volume for me. I need a Nexus for my volume dimensions, so ymmv, but the fit 2 is narrower in the forefoot and also deeper than the old vapor EE

Not sure if this is relevant to your search, but I've found the Fit 2 inconsistent between the 2X Pro and the HyperLite. It's supposed to be identical, but my foot says otherwise. I could NOT get good heel lock in the 2X Pro in Fit 2. Once I tried on the HyperLite in Fit 2, it was much better. I'm pretty sure I've seen other people comment on this, too.
I dunno... maybe they had issues when they tried to go back and retrofit the 2X line to the Fit system?

Thanks for all of the input, guys!
I pulled the trigger on the 2X pro’s. Happened to stop in to a hockey shop that gets the London Knights old gear and they had a used Knights pair in my size so I got to try them on before I snagged the new pair I was eyeing. The EE are definitely wider in the forefoot than the Fit 2.
