The APL Ascend Mesh Sneakers ($200) are designed to be a training shoe; they're excellent for gym workouts, weightlifting, and agility training. What I really love about them is the high cut around the ankle. If you have weak ankles or just prefer more support, these are the kicks you need The upper hugs your foot without suffocating it, giving you an ideal fit that also keeps your ankle in place. The shoe features APL's signature Propelium midsole that provides you with plenty of cushion and absorbs shock.
