Do Apl Shoes Run Big or Small?

APL does run small overall as a brand, so I suggest going up half a size in their shoes. These are extremely comfortable and light weight.

Do APL shoes fit true to size?

APL's offer so much support and so much comfort. I love the color, too. They are getting lots of use while running around after little kiddos. They fit true to size.

Why did APL shoes get banned?

A compression spring underneath the ball of the foot increased the vertical leap of players by 3.5 inches. It was deemed too much of a competitive advantage for professional players, so the NBA banned the shoe for professional play. ... Now, in honor of the ban, APL has re-released the shoe to the public.
