On the 4K goal skates, Reebok has used an anatomical felt tongue increasing the overall comfort of the skate and providing the necessary protection. The 4K goal skates use a soft gel-like foam on the inside of the skate to dampen impact that the foot may take. In the bottom of the skate Reebok has used an Anatomical Response footbed which is molded to provide support to the foot and help maintain the fit.
The Reebok 4K goalie ice skate offers several features that can be found on higher models making this skate a great value.
