Black or Brown Elastic Silicone No Tie Anchor Shoe Laces PK of 10 pcs For Adults & Kids Shoes

I bought these stretchy 'laces' to go in a pair of Converse because I was sick of stopping in the street to re-tie my shoelaces. One of my feet is fatter than the other and has always caused me problems with lace-up shoes - I could never gauge the correct tightness and was forever putting my foot up on people's garden walls and adjusting the laces. Eventually I decided never to buy lace-ups but, unfortunately, when looking for some brown summer sneakers, I couldn't find any of the right colour except for some Converse which, of course, were laced.The messing about eventually put me off wearing them until… I found these! They have just got to be one of the best inventions ever and they look absolutely great - just like real laces. They're even textured with a 'woven' pattern to look like real laces - unbelievable! Whoever invented these deserves a medal for ingenuity!Another reviewer did mention that they aren't really suitable for shoes with parallel lace holes, and they were right. I have had to miss out the first lace-hole because the tongue of the shoe was just too tight up against my foot but putting them in from the second lace-hole down has made them fit in much better. The shoes have six lace holes and I put them in from the longest, in the second hole down, which left three over. I've put them aside because you never know when you might need them for something else or some other shoes with more lace holes!I would highly recommend these to anyone who has shoe-lacing problems, whether it's for an inability to tie laces or just for comfort or appearance. They give the shoes a clean, neat look without those annoying flapping 'bows' which are so 'uncool' anyway and save all that messing about trying to hide the 'bow' by tucking it down the side of the shoe - a cause of many broken nails in my case! Get some - you won't regret it!

I've brought several types of shoe lace replacements, and always come back to these, which are the cheap option.Things like Hickies cost a lot more, yet only provide one size, who ties their laces, so all the laces are the same width? The staggered size of these makes them fit more naturally.These are a bit of a pain to put in the first time, but once in, stay put well.

Brilliant! I recently bought leather low top sneaker fitflops. See photo. The round laces with them weren't a great colour match and having arthritic hands, tightening them from bottom up when putting on was painful. These were tough to get in the small eyelets on my shoes, but I found using a screw in method was the best way. With the first shoe I forgot to slot through tongue loop so had to remove one on one side, very difficult so make sure you remember!! Once completed they look great and match shoes exactly as you can see. They are a size 4, I used from second smallest up. I'm so pleased at how cool they look and they're exactly like the real thing. Highly recommended!

They look good when fitted - that is if you can get them fitted. I had dreadful bother getting the nubs through the eyelets in my Skechers trainers, so much so that my thumbnail is battered, bruised and torn. The only other downside is they are not like normal laces so you can't thread a lace through the tab on the tongue of the trainers to keep it in place, so when you slide your foot into the shoes, the tongue disappears right down to your toes! I prefer the other type of elastic laces - the ones that are like a regular lace and you secure them with a bungee clip.

THESE NO-TIE SMART LACES HAVE ALLOWED ME TO WEAR A PAIR OF BLACK LEATHER HI-TOPS, BOUGHT A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO AND NEVER WORN BECAUSE OF THE DIFFICULTY IN FASTENING THE LONG LACES SUPPLIED. THE NEW WHITE SILICONE " LACES " LOOK SUPERB AGAINST THE BLACK LEATHER. SINCE THE HI-TOPS ARE EIGHT EYELET TYPE, I HAVE TO USE A SHOE HORN TO PUT THEM ON AND A WOODEN BOOT REMOVER TO TAKE THEM OFF ! I DON'T MIND, SINCE THE SHOE HORN AND BOOT REMOVER ARE BOTH IN THE BEDROOM AND THIS IS JUST A MINOR ANNOYANCE ( AND VERY WORTHWHILE ) ONCE THE BOOTS ARE ON, THEY FEEL VERY COMFORTABLE, THANKS TO THE ELASTICATED " LACES " I'M VERY GLAD THAT I CHOSE THIS PRODUCT !

The laces look nice but these are too small and easily snap off. I used the largest ones on my shoe (size 8) but still they snap off. I was fooled by a lot of positive reviews and bought these. But these items are not eligible for return. I think most of the positive reviews are fake. So, be warned.

I was shocked when I first came across these and at that price unwell give it ago. . . . And well I live these I suffer with lyphondeama and can't realy get my shoes on very well then they look odd cos I have to take the lace out on one side. So when I put these in they work amazingly well I have told so many people about them that we are all warring them . I cant believe something so simple is so amazing and have made my life so much easier. I no it's mental that I'm going on like this but trust me I'm truly impressed. Not only are they cheap they look smart because u can wipe them clean easily and realy do do the job. Once they r in they stay in.

These are great! My mum has issues with her hands so tying/untying laces is a nightmare. Her feet also swell regularly so the laces would cut into them. However, these smart laces help on both counts. They are quite fiddly to get installed (hence the loss of a star) but, once done, they are great. They allow my mum to slip her feet in and out of her trainers with just a little effort but still feel secure enough that they’re not going to slip off whilst walking.
