Level of Play
Daoust was a trusted name at the highest levels of hockey for decades, and the 701 proves they're back with purpose, delivering true pro-level performance, unmatched step-in comfort, and premium construction at a price that's shockingly hard to compete with.
Built around a stiff 70/30 composite boot and a full carbon fiber outsole, the 701 is engineered for modern responsiveness and efficient energy transfer. The added torsional rigidity translates into explosive first steps, powerful full-length strides, and confident edge control for today's fast, aggressive style of play.
Inside, Daoust balances elite performance with legendary comfort. Dual VE Poly foam wraps the foot in a custom-like fit, while the Diamond Proformance Clarino liner provides pro-level durability and moisture management. Whether it's a high-intensity game or a long practice, the 701 keeps feet dry, locked in, and comfortable when performance matters most.
Up top, the reinforced 7mm Pro Felt Tongue features Daoust's highest-level lace-bite guard, protecting against blocked shots, slashes, and heavy impacts. It's fully adjustable and replaceable, allowing players to fine-tune internal fit over time and extends the lifespan so you can replace just the tongue, instead of the entire skate.
IMAGE NOTE: The holder and blade shown are pre-release versions, the final versions will look slightly different.
For the ultimate fitting experience that can be done without leaving the house, make sure to first Bake Your Skates at Home and then Check for Proper Skate Fit. If you are still unsatisfied with how they fit and feel, simply use the included pre-paid return label.
