ATHLETIC PROPULSION LABS (APL) was founded in March 2009, by Ryan Goldston and his identical twin Adam. As former two sport collegiate athletes, playing both basketball and football at the University of Southern California, the brothers envisioned creating a company providing revolutionary products symbolizing the ultimate intersection of design and performance.

Today, Adam and Ryan Goldston are recognized as accomplished inventors with numerous U.S. and foreign patents.

With the launch of their inaugural shoe, the Concept 1 basketball shoe, in 2010, they became the creators of the first shoe proven to instantly make you jump higher due to APL’s revolutionary 8-spring Load ‘N Launch Technology in the forefoot.

APL’s unique sportswear is the intersection of technology, performance and fashion enabling athletes to maximize their potential in all aspects of their life.

Ryan Goldston has been a CFDA Member since 2016.
