Customer Reviews Athletic Propulsion Labs (APL) TechLoom Bliss

These shoes have a very nice feel on the top with very unique stretchable, breathable material. The sole on the other hand is cheap and hard. It would not take a lot of effort to obtain a comfortable sole like Addis but for some reason thats not what they have done. I am returning these shoes and expect a lot better quality for $220 !!!

Im a medical professional and I have to stand 12 hours a day. After much trial and error i finally found this APL brand about 4 years ago. The comfort and fit went beyond my expectations! Im still wearing that same pair....well worth the money! Im now shopping for a pair for my daughter(shes always wearing mine!). This time I ordered a mens size instead of womens so unfortunately I have to return these. I will be ordering the correct size now!

This brand works for me very well. I use them as everyday shoes, not for running. They look very stylish. I wash them in a washing machine and they come out as knew. I have 3 pairs in various colors. I have hallux rigidus and this model has wide toe box, no laces which tend to put pressure on my joint and stiff enough sole to allow walking many miles.

Not compatible with feet having high arches.

Fit is great. This is not my first pair. Insole feels weird on the right foot however, and almost seems to be made incorrectly.

My foot was swimming in these. They were way to big.

So comfy. Would have liked to try on a half size bigger.

Love this sneakers

I absolutely love these shoes. I only wish I could afford them in every color combination.

Ordered a Men’s 7.5 for my Women’s size 9 feet and they are perfect!

Love these! The women's 10 was sold out, so I went for the men's 8.5, and they fit perfectly! These are such a classic and cute slip on sneaker. Can be used for all kinds of workouts, just kicking it around town / around the house, and everything in between. I personally need more support for running and HIIT workouts due to my flexible flat feet, but love them for all other working out that doesn't involve constant high impact / jumping work. If you love the look, you will not regret the purchase. True to size. I wear them without socks and with very thin socks.

Fit perfectly! Purchased the shoes to wear while running errands in NYC and they have been comfortable thus far. Love that I can slide them on and off with ease.

So comfortable and lightweight- highly recommend

I love APLs and have several pairs. These slip-one are a great addition. They’re comfortable and fit true to size.

My expectations of these shoes weren’t much but they exceeded them. Pretty comfy, lots of cushion in the heel. Some of the webbing/knit on the toe box was uneven and made for some holes to seem larger. Not much arch support so if you need that I’d pass on these. Feel like the heel would slip a little especially after wearing for some time and then stretching so I would go down a half size.

Love the style and lightweight feel, but these run much larger than my ordinary sneakers. Hoping there is a pair in a smaller size so I can exchange.

For the price, I did expect a more substantial performance product. I have a pair of Nike slip ons that are substantially more supportive than these shoes. That said, they are comfortable and look great with non athletic clothes, which was the point of buying them in the first place. I wanted a comfortable athletic shoe that worked well with jeans, shorts, athleisure clothing, but didn't scream "sneaker." If I had tried these on prior to buying, I may have passed. But I am satisfied with the result. Just not a pair of shoes that are going to perform well in heavy walking, or other activities.

great looking shoe...but way too short and not comfortable.

I am always a size 10 in APL footwear and these were very small - not the right fit.

I have had these before. The insole on this pair is weird, and I can feel the footbed. Also, the white color gets really dirty (two short runs!). Previous pairs have been awesome, as are other APL items I have had. It is past the return window on these when I used them, so I am somewhat stuck. I will buy APL shoes again, I think....
