If so, I don't think I'd be the first to wear them to a varsity game.

Whoa!!! Heckuva point,Bob. That got me thinking,so I "googled" the Nike Shox. Came up with this description-"The concept is the same as springs,but instead of actual springs,Nike Shox uses high density polyurethane foam columns,which provide the same basic effect as springs.They absorb the energy of impact and return it to the wearer on the transition from heel-stroke to toe-off."
Using that description,it sureashell sounds like these shoes should be illegal, as per NFHS R3-5-3- equipment designed to gain an advantage. Have you,or anybody else,heard whether this shoe is illegal,or not? Has the FED or NCAA put out a ruling on them yet?
