In addition, APL’s founders Adam and Ryan Goldston developed a new lacing system, which limits lace-loosening during exercise. They also included its new TechLoom forefoot material with a non-stretch construction to keep the foot centered on the footbed when working out in order to provide maximum lateral stability.
The Techloom Tracer sneakers also feature APL’s proprietary Propelium midsole to provide cushioning and rebound as well as rubber traction pads placed in high wear areas for added durability.

Earlier this year, APL joined in the fight against COVID-19 and began distributing face shields to medical and essential workers across the state of California. The company donated thousands of PPE to local hospitals, including Keck Hospital of USC, Cedars-Sinai Hospital, Ronald Regan UCLA Medical Center and Erewhon Markets, among other organizations in California. In addition, customers who purchased shoes in April on APL’s website also received the personal protection shield with each order.
