The boy and girls at Athletic Propulsion Labs are making my dreams come true with the Concept 1. This shoe is said to instantly increase the wearer's vertical leap. I'll be the judge of that.
To be fair, I can jump pretty high. Let's just say I'm a beast on the boards. Athletic Propulsion Labs claims to have developed a technology that looks and acts like flubber. The shoe features light-weight carbon fiber design, which helps cut off those precious grams of weight that tether you to Earth.
These shoes sound too good to be true, but what if they aren't? I am so close to dunking it's ridiculous and maybe Athletic Propulsion Labs and the Concept 1 can get me there. Maybe...
