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?

Funny, King was talking about wearing them to officiate in and when Bob replied, I couldn't figure out why he wouldn't want to officiate in them. But JR's post makes a good point. As far as I know, there's no ban on them.

Yabut,would you allow them in your game? I read several different accounts on 'em when I "googled" 'em,and every account says that they are designed to give the exact same effect as springs.Nike is advertising them that way too. The casebook is quite explicit on this one- CB3.5.SitA-"The second standard provides that any equipment ..designed to...gain an advantage shall not be used.
The referee is given no leeway here and no judgement is required." I think that someone had better make a decision on this one in a hurry-both for FED and NCAA.
