    Default APL shoes

    apparently these APL shoes increase you vertical instantly... like it's not a training shoe, it somehow increases your vert instantly... I think it might be a gimmick, but for 300$ you'd assume they work somewhat

    anyone know anything about these?

    SI has a great review of these... the verdict was that it helps two foot jumpers get up like 3-4 inches, but didn't help one foot jumpers too much... I guess it's okay if you r like an inch or two from dunking, but $300 for shoes is crazy!

    That review was hilarious.

    "I'm 6'3" and athletic, and I've always been close to dunking"


    ummm if you're 6'3" and can't dunk, you aren't athletic.

    The price dropped to $195. I'm half way tempted but I'm 5'9 and old so I'm not sure there's any hope for me lol

    These are worth buying and plus they are $195.00

    They finally stop selling the shoes at that crazy $300.00 mark.

    Got a pair of concept 1's today and in the few jumps that I did I couldn't tell a difference. I still need to play in them though.
