Bauer Supreme Fuse Pro Goalie Leg Pads

Bauer Supreme Fuse Pro Goalie Leg Pads

The Bauer Supreme goalie line has always been Bauers number one pad at the pro level for years.  This is because the Supreme line is generally a stiffer option than the Vapor lines.  However, we must mention that a lot of these pro goalies tend to be on the taller side and the stiffer option tends to work better with taller goalies versus shorter goalies.  The solution to this problem – build the pads any way you like with the Bauer Pro Custom options.  A goalies can build a stiff pad, a soft pad, a Vapor pad with a Fuse graphic – anything you like.

A stock Fuse pad does not come nearly as stiff as it did back in the Supreme Mach era.  Although stiffer than a Vapor pad, a stock Supreme Fuse comes in a mid-flex which still has some flexibility – particularly below the knee.  From the bottom of the knee through the thigh rise, the pad does keep a stiffer feeling.  The core comes with the Rebound Boast Core which produces one the most explosive rebounds on the goalie leg pad market,

The outer skin will continue to use the SLD3R skin. This has been shown to have great slide ability and also has better long-term durability.

Bauer will continue to use the Stabilislide knee block system on the stock Fuse goalie pads although the shape has been altered a bit from the Shadow.  The Slabilislide knee block has been proven to provide greater stability to the goalie in the butterfly position and also moving laterally in the butterfly slide techniques and also provides a better overall seal to the ice surface.  The stock knee wing on the Supreme Fuse is removable, so if the goalie prefers the knee strapping to be angled versus behind the knee – this flap can be easily removed.  There are four variations of the knee wing that can be custom ordered.

Bauer Fuse has changed the Stabili-Calf system for 2026.  The new Fuse Stabili-Calf has gone to a single bracket design versus a double bracket design on the previous Shadow pads.  This was done to bring the calf closer to the leg and give the goalie better support when they are in their various butterfly techniques.

The strapping system on the Bauer Supreme Fuse leg pads features the new control lock system.  The Control Lock strapping is a bit stronger than the previous Tune-Fit strapping system.  The name speaks for itself as it locks the lower leg in place more so than the Tune-Fit which had more elastic and stretch to it.

The Supreme Fuse will have a new recoil boot system.  Instead of using a soft boot flex, the new recoil system will be slightly stiffer, but when the goalie loads the ankle and pushes, the recoil boot will help create power in this push by acting as a spring-loaded boot.  The boot will come stock with the 120-degree angle – the same as the Shadow.

In the toe area, Bauer will continue to use Pro Elastic Toe Tie on the stock models.  This new toe tie system allows for greater adjustability in the bungee cord system without having to take the entire toe tie system apart.  There are four settings on the toe bridge that a goalie can choose from on the stock model.  If a goalie prefers skate lace, it can be changed in a matter of minutes.

Bauer leg pads do run smaller than Vaughn and CCM.  So, if you are a 34+ in a Vaughn or a CCM, more than likely you will be a 35+ in a Bauer.  Please reference our goalie sizing guide for proper sizing instructions.
