Customer Reviews Athletic Propulsion Labs (APL) Techloom Wave

I thought these would be great and I wanted to like them, but they're definitely the worst running shoes I've ever bought. I've only owned them for a few months and this is how they look (see photos). These shoes become frayed very easily and the fabric tore so there is now a big hole and I cannot wear them. This was just from running and playing tennis (no other activities). I reached out to APL customer service and they were rude and called me a liar. Do not buy from APL. The shoes are simply extremely poor quality. That's just me being honest. I wish they were good.

These shoes were really nice looking but had no arch support at all and no cushioning. The heel also pushed my foot forward and my lower back was in a lot of pain from wearing these.

I like the style, but it is definitely not the most comfortable running or workout shoes.

These look really sharp. However, I am consistently a size 8 and these size 8's were too short. I returned the and ordered and 8 1/2.

I love how these looked and how the material and cushioning felt but they did feel a half size small to me. I’m usually a 7.5 in sneakers and needed to exchange for an 8. I think they will be great for errands and workouts.

These shoes are so comfortable I bought 3 pairs Love the fabric the style and above all just how extremely comfortable they are!

These are so comfortable it's like walking on a cloud with support absolutely love them.

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever purchased. Thank you Zappos!

Love them~

These are great shoes but they do run slightly short

I like these shoes I returned because I didn’t like the color and they would just sit in my closet.

So comfortable! I normally wear a 7.5, ordered an 8 and they were too small, the 8.5 is perfect. Ordering a full size up for me was best.

LOVE

This is my 2nd time buying this exact shoe. It runs small like 1/2 size. I bought it first in 8.5 and I found it too tight when walking or running. I bought it again in size 9 and it is perfect. The style is great and I love the slip on feature.

Super comfortable! Great for HIIT workouts or airport travel. Love the slip on and not having to deal with laces.

I ordered a half size up based on the reviews. The shoes a very comfortable, there was no break-in period. These shoes make me feel cool and happy while wearing them. The rose dust/marble (true to picture) color were sold out on the APL website and was super excited to have found them in Zappos at a discount! Wore them for a 3 mile jog and my feet felt great, no slipping, no pain, very comfy. I wouldn’t wear them for training though. I did a low impact HIT class and the shoes were slipping off. I will try a half size down next time just for training.

These sneaks are lightweight, fresh and chic, easy to slip on and comfortable from the start. Great spring/summer sneaker for stylish easy wear.

Great looking shoes and so comfy too

I read the reviews and went up a half size and I am glad I did.

Sizing was perfect, comfortable...a little more support then my APL slip ons... love the color

Always love APL and added bonus Zappos super fast shipping!

Runs half a size smaller, so size up!

Loved the fit and style. Unfortunately I returned them because it felt like my big toe felt the floor below. Even with a sock on. Very disappointed because everything else (fit/style) was great. Hopefully they can make the bottom more cushy.

Zero support. I felt old I was with my ex-boyfriend, if he had been a shoe.

Would have been awesome with arch support
