This new line of sneakers has claimed to increase one&#8217;s vertical leap although factual proof of this advantage has not been proven. Specifically, the Athletic Propulsion Lab Concept 1 shoe possesses a spring-based system that is designed to increase vertical lift.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement released earlier today, the NBA said that, &#8220;under league rules, players may not wear any shoe during a game that creates an undue competitive advantage.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you recall, the last time the NBA decided to ban a sneaker was when Nike created Michael Jordan&#8217;s first signature sneaker, the Air Jordan I. In fact, David Stern&#8217;s banning of MJ&#8217;s sneaker happened on October 18th 1985, just 25 years and a day after the recent prohibition of this Athletic Propulsion Lab Concept 1 shoe.<\/p>\n<p>The Athletic Propulsion Lab Concept 1 was founded by twins Adam and Ryan Goldston, both former University of Southern California basketball walk-ons.<\/p>\n<p>What are your thoughts on the Athletic Propulsion Lab Concept 1 shoe? Have you tested this new performance-based sneaker out yet? Do you think it is fair to ban this shoe although the stated advantages have not been proven yet?
