Join us online: Instagram and Twitter @howtohockey Hockey equipment has come a long way in the past 20 years, and a VERY long way in the last 100. We decided to test out some vintage hockey skates and find out what exactly has changed. I picked up some vintage skates from the 1800's, 1920's, 1960's and 1970's. We compare these to my Bauer 1S hockey skates.

If this video gets 2000 likes I'll play a full game in the Lange's 😄
Coach Jeremy - The Hockey Movement Good luck with that
Coach Jeremy - The Hockey Movement I like that sweater Jeremy!
Coach Jeremy - The Hockey Movement Please do a video on the first skates! I would really enjoy that. I'm sure other people would too.
I don't think he can do a video on the first skates, all it takes is one shot off your foot and your foot is now broken lol
Coach Jeremy - The Hockey Movement great job on 100k
I wanna see someone play hockey with figure skates.
The toe picks would actually KILL them with transitions!
People have done it
Just watch the Habs play.
and vice versa; figure skating with hockey skates
@@ughitsamelia I've done it before as a figure skater and it's fine in general but jumps are really hard to take of
the guys back in the 20's and 50's probably had ankles of steel
Especially with Basketball Converses yeah
No; the pros didn't wear cheap, worn-out leather skates like the ones in this video. They wore expensive skates, such as CCM Tacks, made from kangaroo leather (the strongest leather in existence), that wasn't yet worn out, so it still had plenty of ankle support.
Look at Pavel barbers video he use a old nhlers skate and he had not ankles support
Nah ankles of titanium
@MaximRecoil ☝️🤓
Do a game with an old stick with no curve, the langes, and some old gloves.
Luke Hunter agree 🏒
Luke Hunter vintage helmet as well
FamilyGuyfan889 so... Your own bare skull?
FamilyGuyfan889 so... Your own bare skull?
ALifeLost vintage helmet can be any brand notable ones are Jofa, Cooper, Itech
new laces would probably add more support on those old beasts. They were probably made from pterodactyl wing.
I think some may have been made with kangeroo leather, it's stronger than cow leather
Roses are Red
I'll help you out mate
The part where they skate is at 6:38
Keches Thanks man!!
Thanks
Thx
Thank God! It saved me half way of watching 2 guys who think they are being funny not being funny.
Thx
Do a video of those late 1800s skates
Da a video
They forgot about those once
those old skates looked painful, imagine taking a snapshot 🏒to the side of the foot😲
Tampatec dang that would kill
sploofmonkey that was literally the best they had.
Tampatec when guys were using these skates they were also using wood sticks that weighed a ton, and not much in the way of curved blades, most shots never got off the ground
Tampatec
Tampatec shit that still hurts with my brand new 2017 skates😂 i can’t even imagine the amount of broken ankles from no support and fractured feet from pucks to the skates
Had completely forgotten that I played in Langes for years. The inner boot was everything. I don't remember my feet ever hurting back then, but now, even having perfectly fitted bauers, I still don't find them as comfortable...but probably because time on ice is a fraction of what it once was. Thanks for the flashbacks guys.
Once we were playing some pick up hockey and one of the older guys was wearing a pair of skates from the 60s/70s and when he went to turn BOOM, his foot broke through the boot and left him standing in his sock on the ice with the top of the boot still tied on to his foot. It was hilarious to see but thank heavens they improved the structure of skates.
This is the first time I’ve actually heard a Canadian say *“ay”*
Eh*
You've never been up north eh bud?
Eh guess youve been in the deep south too long eh?
Seriously, eh?
You’ve Never Heard a Canadian Say Eh
Eh
Eh It’s Eh Not Ay Eh
Eh bud
STUPID
I started playing hockey in high school in a pair of my Dad's skates in 1969. The skates were probably from the late 30's. That first practice, I spent most of my time just trying to stand up. I wasn't a very good skater to begin with so they didn't help. My Dad took me to the skate shop and I picked up a pair of Black Diamond Bauer skates. What a difference it was to have some ankle support !
Im Young, below 18 and me and my best friend skate exclusively in 1980~ skates. They hurt a bit, they’re heavy and uncomfortable but we love em
Nice video.CCM added "the plastic stopper" 1:40 on the rear of the tube skates after Bernie Geoffrion got his tendon severed in a game in 1959. Skates added more leather in the back say after 1959 then they capped the tube with the plastic tip. The Ancient skates when brand new were much stiffer than the stuff you tested thus its is really a tough comparison. A hockey skating book from about 1970s says two pairs of skates per season thus I think older skates did not last as long too. (Ice Hockey Skating - Harry Brown, Ph.D. - 1972 ). A great vintage book on power skating, oddly very little mention is about radius of hollow of the blades
Learn something new every day :)
Awesome video guys, you are both really funny and natural on camera! Really cool seeing how far we've come with hockey skates.
Even though I am from South Africa I love hockey and I love your videos, I've used these techniques to get better in some of your training videos.
Keep up the good work !
I hope to play in USA one day
👊
Salt Salt_Slap same but I am from Spain and I play roller hockey because there is no ice hockey in near me! ☹️
Borja Gracia Usón that is at least better than nothing my friend, roller hockey is almost the same as on ice hahah
Salt Salt_Slap totally agree! Anyways I hope I have a chance to play on ice at least once in my life!
Borja Gracia Usón do you play on quad skates or roller blades?
This video was awesome! Thank you so much for the creative content! Really entertaining and fun. Nice job!
6:52
:it's like we just started playing hockey
me who just started skating: I wish I could skate even close to that!😂
Love this. Always wondered about the old skates too. I had those Langes !! they were ahead of there time.
I have buttends for both my goalie sticks. They are awesome!!! I highly recommend
Awesome video! I think it's amazing one can still get vintage hockey skates from almost a 100 years ago
That was awesome!
I remember being so jealous of my brother as he was able to fit a pair of hockey skates similar to those 50s/60s ones you tried on. There were none in my size, so I was stuck having to use figure skates :/ (this was in New Zealand around 1990, where it was not possible to just go buy hockey skates from a shop and everything skating related was super expensive).
Both my grandfather wore those brown toe beauties, they both could skate great! My dad always had black leather “hockey” skates, he is 70ish. I love this video:) So many memories of skating around with my family
This was a lot of fun. Thanks Jeremy and Rob.
i would be so scared to skate in those, i would break both my ankles lol
Happy 100k Jeremy. I have been watching you since you were 38k and I always loved your vids. When I first watched one of your vids my mind exploded. You are a role model to me and I want to be like you.
Thank you Jeremy. You inspired the hockey/TH-cam community to make big subs. Thank you for loving my comment. Hope you can make 1M by 2018. (Cough cough) you can. Hope you shout me out. Plz, don't want to beg but it would be nice.
I really enjoyed this video! I'm inspired, I'll have a look for some vintage skates in my size and see how they play out against my x500 LE pair, maybe even play a training session in a pair of vintage skates! I'd love to see you try out the 1800's skates and play a game in the Langes!
Yes you should do a full video for the shoe skate
For the leather skates you need to find new or like new ones, and also, find some good quality ones, such as CCM Tacks. The leather in the ones you bought had long since lost all of its support due to wear and tear. New ones would have a lot more support. And obviously they need to be a good fit.
I've been waiting for this!!!! Love it!
😂 . Hilarious!! The fact that Jeremy is wearing a helmet shouldn't go unnoticed... take care of your head!
I am a giant fan and you've made me improve so much!
My first pair of great skates were leather CCM Tacks. I got them for Christmas in 1974. They fit like a glove. Thery were great skates. I still have them and no I do not use them any longer. All the skates you a trying are all worn out. Hard to get new unused old vintage skates.
I had a pair of hand-me-down Lange's that I used into my late teens (late 90's), took some ribbing on the ice but they were mint!
100k YEAAAAA CONGRATS JEREMY !!!!!!!!!
I was just wondering this evening how modern skaters would do on old skates and then this pops up. Nice job guys! Brilliant. The Lange's look like the old Bauer Turbos, my first skates ordered out of a Sears catalog in 1981.
grats on the 100k, love the channel, keep it up
The Lange is great.
I used to have Lange with ICM-steel in the late 70's and loved them...
6:46 that’s literally what it was like skating for the first time for me LOL
Do a full vid on the shoe skates
I learned to skate using the old Bauer Black Panthers. Years later when I got into playing again, I was stunned by the difference in the boots. Neat Video!
Great video i love it i had skates like that in Russia in 1970s than i had bauers in black just like langes great funny video brings a lot of memories we ysed to play with no equipment and skates with no support
Loved this video. Reminds me of when I was a teenager in the early 1980's and played a lot of hockey with both the Langes and Microns.
I haven't played since 1997 using my Super tacks. Went out the other day, first time in twenty years. I'm fifty one now and am hooked again.
Went out and bought Bauer Vapor 900 skates but haven't been able to use them yet.
Watching all your videos for advice about fitting and buying equipment. Gheeze has the technology and equipment ever changed in twenty years, lol.
Any advice about the Vapor 900 skates?
GREAT VIDEOS you are making....
David Martin so cool dude nice i hope I can play when I'm your age also if u have a wide foot Bauer nexus is the way to go
Welcome back David! I made a few videos on baking, profiling and skate insoles you might like for advice on your new skates.
I also really liked the bauer hockey helmet rope, skate laces. Cool, I have to apply this on my helmet 😉😀👍
ahh the good old inner boot. Loved it in the early 90s :D felt so comfortable.
Lets go full videos I live for your vids Jeremy especially when u live in LA
Just get em baked, you'll be fine 😂😂
either that or you get baked!!!!! lololol
Yes do a full vid!
I bought some vintage hockey skates from the thrift store and they just look so cool! Nice to see you trying all these out!
Pavel Bure wore Micron Quadraflexes in his rookie NHL season, sometimes. They were a plastic ski boot/old school Rollerblade type of skate like those Langes.
yes you should do a full vid on trying to get those skates to fit on a pair of shoes
When I was young the kids with money got the Langs. Great for indoor ice but most of our ice was outdoors and they were miserable. They were extremely cold skates. I can't imagine what a puck off the foot felt like then.
Hey from the UK, great work man!!!
Him : able to buy 5 pairs of skates for 1 video
Me: cant even afford a pair of skates to play hockey in
I have a local rink where I can rent skates. Want me to ship you some?
Awesome video! Just wondering when are you going to post the video of you playing hockey in the cave?
My first hockey skates were from that 50-60s era. My ankles were like warm wet noodles.
That’s my local rink dude. I live literally 2 min walk away. Tripppy. Go Thunder!
Decided to try the Buttendz this session. I bought the one Rob had on his stick. Really impressed with the product, nice and tacky.
Thank you Jeremy for helping me get to the gold team for hockey
I think you should play a full game with the Lange's on
Me too!
Coach Jeremy - The Hockey Movement what's the song you used while using the Lange skates
they look like asbestos laces
@@CoachJeremy you haven't yet tho when will you
Ребята молодцы. Не стесняясь показали, что на старых коньках кататься сложно)))
Please , You must play a match in vintage full gear . Haha this was the best video ever 😂😂
I skated in the Langes since 1983, until finally the plastic boot cracked last year. Great video!
Congrats on 100,000 subs!
Do full vintage gear, and maybe a goalie and do full vintage gear. I'm a goalie and ALWAYS wanted to make a video on that. Id start with 70 then go up to like 90s and early 2000s. I just don't have the money or time or recording equipment haha
Evan Tisby same except I'm a forward busy with school & trying 2 earn more playing time for my senior year
Same Lol except I’m defense and I don’t rly have the time and I have school too. Lmao.
Yes do a video on the really old skates
Fun. Good job boys!
You should stream a full game (keep it on your channel) with vintage stick gloves and skates
You guys should do a 1v1 with those skates and wooden no curve sticks
My dad bought my brother a no curve stick a while ago
Now I wanna get myself some vintage skates 😮
Thanks you for helping me for everything:)
They used to have extra angle supports that you could put in. This is also were when kids couldn’t skate we used to call them “ankle burners “ because of the lack of support
I used to do that bathtub trick with baseball gloves back in the day but threw a baseball in there after with some olive oil or linseed oil and taped it up for a few days for break in. It really softens the leather and quickly. It is like undoing tanning in a weird way.
Congratulations on 100k subs!!
It would be fun watching the skates freshly sharpen with new laces on them
Hello from Leamington. Love the vids keep em coming. Go Canada
Great video boys!
Do a full video !!
It's a kind of neat to see this, but with that said different designs of skates require different muscles to use. Bauer currently has developed a 400 gram pair of skates, which is almost half as light as the best out there now, and the reason they won't put this on the market right away is that they will have to incrementally make the skates lighter so it's not too radical of shock for players and they start giving them bad reviews.
My dad has a pair of these from playing ice hockey in the 50s! Had the same tips on putting them in the bathtub and walking around with them. He said they were a nightmare to take a puck in because they were just leather, and that the back heel that pokes out was like a spear that would impale you. He started playing beer league again in his 60s and those were the skates he used for his first couple games. All the guys on the ice were trying to buy them from him for the nostalgia, haha.
Those 1950's skates is all I had to play with in the late 70's early 80's and a lefty stick (Im a right) because thats all I could find. Sucked not having any cash to play a fun sport. Now I help kids by coaching inline, (no ice programs in our area) we do our best to get them gear if needed and keep them safe. Hoping for a lottery win so we can really get our program running!! Funny thing is I still shoot with a lefty stick. LOL Thanks for sharing!
what I find interesting is that figure skates are still mostly leather. We have wooden bottoms, (or carbon in some cases) but there is still a ton of support with different layering techniques. I wouldn't dare use vintage skates though because my ankle would straight-up collapse. My hats off to them being able to skate at all without ankle support.
6:30 is when they actually start to skate
Currently I don't lace the top two eyelets for the advances of a deep knee bend so I think the flex in the Langes would be interesting to try
I live in Canada and i love hockey I try my best to do tricks and cool stuff like that but I don't succeed but just believe in yourself and one day you'll be able to do it all
Do a full video of the 1800's skates
You can skate at the highest levels in molded plastic skates. My first decent pair of hockey skates when I was a kid were Bauer Turbos, which are essentially the same thing as those Lange skates, except the blade holders are plastic. I used them for 4 years (two pairs of them, size 7 for the first 2 years and size 9 for the next 2 years), and those are the skates that I got to be a good skater on.
noticed that the oldtime skates forced them to skate upright. My mother got some skates from her aunt when I was a kid. They looked like the 1920's skates. I couldn't stand on them and thought there was something wrong with me. Later in life I got decent CCM skates and was surprised at how easy skating is.
ur the reason i love hockey
Cool video. Back in the 70s breaking in a pair of Bauer supreme 96s you fill them up with water let them soak for about 15 minutes lace them up onto your bare feet and then you went to sleep. Find morning they were formed to your feet
u should do a full video on them
Awesome video! I don’t know how you guys balanced yourselves let alone did hockey stops
Very, very cool video!!!
a guy we play with on the weekends in a pick up type group uses Lange's.
Yes you should do it
Wore Langes in Atom, wore the same Bauer 92's for the next 20+ years. Couldn't afford the 100's or the Tacks...Good times!
CCM Super Tack´s were the skates to have when I was a kid in the 60´s. My parents didn´t have much money but my father loved ice hockey and bought me a pair when my feet had stopped growing. Although moderen skates are much stiffer and better to skate in, they actually don´t keep sharp as long as my old Tack´s do. I love those old Super Tack´s and will never part with them. Thank you for the video. I really enjoyed it!
I brought some old Langes in to get sharpened and Glen Sharpley was amazed at how nice it was to sharpen them. He was so used to cheap steel on new skates and he really noticed a difference on the steel used on older skates. I could even hear a difference while he sharpened them.
I used to wear Lange skates back in the day. They were excellent skates, just as good as my new modern Ribcores .
i've literally never seen such beautiful ice
Upload ice hockey cave game!!
Plz do a full vid on the original dusters
