Do you mean the ones without the back that are supposed to increase your vertical???

Pain is only temporary, it is in your mind. If you can still walk, then you can still run.

I have used them. You can get some gains out of them under one condition: Do not do the prescribed exercises with them! Do not run in them either. I developed some bad achilles tendonitis with those things. Oh yeah, and the Jumpsoles are definitely way better than the strength shoes. Either way, they're pretty much a waste of money. Some smart lifting is definitely a better way to go. You'll get some gains as a beginner, but for the most part, those things are the classic example of false advertising.
