UPINS Elastic Shoe Lace - No Tie, Adjustable Tieless Rubber Lace for Kids & Adults

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Love these things. Definitely worth the price. Bought them for my kid and ended up with them in my shoes as well. Child has adhd and autism. So, though he can tie his shoes, he gets rattled when feels rushed. These have been a life saver for him and me. Multiple options on color. Easy to use, adjust, and put into your sneakers. Will buy more I sure of it!

Easy to use and made of good materials

These elastic laces are such a great upgrade from using regular laces in shoes. No dealing with laces coming untied while walking creating a tripping hazard. No annoying knots you have to pick at so you can get your shoes untied. While no instructions weren't included in any of the laces in this set, they are still easy to install. Thread the lace through the lace holes as you would for a typical cloth lace. Once done, grab the round bead with the press-down button (I call it a pinch bead). Insert the lace ends through the opening in the pinch bead while the button is pressed down. Put on the shoes, adjust the fit, and press the pinch bead to secure the laces in that spot. The pinch bead should now be close enough to sit on your shoe.Once you get the laces to the right length, you cut off the excess while still leaving a few inches that hang past the round bead gripper thingy. Then you thread the ends of the laces through the back of the opening that is between the pieces of the end cap (two solid squares of plastic connected by two smaller pieces of flexible plastic) just enough so that the ends of the laces are a millimeter or two away from the edge of the plastic and fit neatly into that part of the end cap, then press the two squares of plastic together until they clamp together and stay firmly closed. This secures the cut ends of the laces so they don't fray, and you can tuck this under the length of lace on your shoe that is down closest to your toes. The length of lace between this end tab and the pincher piece is the extra you have to adjust how tightly or loosely your shoes fit.These particular elastic laces aren't long enough for boots, even low height hiking boots. They're also too long for kid's sized shoes as you will waste a lot of the lace. They make smaller and longer laces for those sizes of footwear. For tennis shoes/sneakers these laces are a great replacement.

Kid came home with the end pulled off both laces on day one. Said they came off when he was trying to tighten. We broke another one when trying to put it on. We broke another one when we closed it on accident then tried to open it. This is all the thing that the loose ends clip into. I have abandoned those and tie them in a knot and melt the ends now.The laces and the sliding tightener work great. Kid can get his high tops on now nice and quick. He knows how to tie his shoes but those ones were really giving him hell! No more!!!

Great variety of colors. I love not having to bend over and tie shoelaces anymore!!!

very good

Bonitos
