Xpand Round Lacing. Elastic No Tie Shoelaces - Quick Release Tension Control - One Size Fits All Adult and Kids Shoes

I used to buy slip in shoes until I bought these laces. They are easy to use and allows me to purchase the shoes I enjoy wearing while having the convenience of a slip on shoe.

Work great and very durable. I put them on all my hiking boots

Overall I am satisfied so far. I paired these with some new trail shoes and have only gone for a couple runs on both. I am finding it slightly difficult to find a balance between the tightness of each shoe (again, maybe related to breaking the new shoes in as much as breaking in the laces). I am not in love with the locking mechanism as it is an open enclosure. I can forsee that causing problems on long trail runs. Probably just a personal preference, and the lock has not actually failed, but I did end up buying a closed 3rd party lock button system. The laces are secure but allow for movement and flexibility. Good price point. As easy to install as most standard shoelaces. Would consider again!

Great and look good

Great product.

It took a little bit to get the laces adjusted to where they were comfortable but once they were right, it was great to be able to slip my shoes on quickly. They stayed exactly as I had positioned them, the anchor and cap holding everything really well…until one of the laces broke. It didn’t even last a month, and I was not wearing the shoes on a daily basis. I don’t know what caused the failure as I checked the eyelet of my shoe for a sharp spot and did not find one. The laces were not overly tight, and it broke where there was not a lot of tension on it, so for now I’ll give this product the benefit of the doubt and purchase another pair because of how much I like the concept and how it makes putting my shoes on so quick.

Before this on some of my shoes I use Lock Laces, which are a good idea and seem like a good product still, but the locking part seems to protrude out more which means that the bottom of my pants don't as easily wrap around the shoe. This Xpand lock design doesn't come out as much but rather sits more flush on the shoe tongue. Also if I recall they claim that it's stronger locking. From what I can tell so far it seems to be a better design. Either way you go, these no tie systems seem good, for my needs at least, especially if you wear some kind of shoe around the house or for whatever reason have to frequently put your shoes on and off. Also, not sure if the elasticity of the laces help a bit with wearing comfort.

I bought these for my boots. It's winter time, so I can't wear my slip-on shoes anymore. A few things: Don't expect to use these all the way laced to the top for boots. You can, but it's difficult to get into you may as well use normal laces. I found lacing these up to the neck is about as far as you'll want to go. You can slip in and out of your boots and they'll stay on your feet fine. If people haven't worn laceless shoes before, most are incredibly comfortable and feel a little bit loose at the same time. These laces in boots feel the same way. I would also suggest you don't immediately cut them to length. Tuck the excess in and wear them for a few days trying out different configurations. I prefer up to the neck of the boot, and I've had them like this for a month or two now and it's fantastic. SO COMFORTABLE.

Perfect for my gym shoes, love this product and would buy again

Tolle Erfindung, keine Schuhe mehr zubinden

When I was a kid, I hated tying my shoes. As an adult, I still do. Shoe technology has advanced so far, and yet here we are still tying delicate little bowties to keep our shoes from flying off like it's the middle ages! Where are the self tying shoes that Back to the Future 2 promised? In today's busy world, shoe laces are nothing but a hindrance. Modern problems require modern solutions. Enter the Xpand elastic shoelace. Sleek. Stylish. Comfortable. And lightning fast! No more delicate bowties. Simply pull the laces, slide them into the slot, and let go. It's just that shrimple. A shoelace for the man of tomorrow, today! On a more serious note, I have been using Xpand laces for over three years. They are my go-to shoelace. Every time I get new shoes or boots, I buy some Xpands to go with em. The elasticity keeps em snug on my feet while the stretchiness keeps my feet from feeling restrained the way tight shoelaces usually feel. It also makes putting them on and removing them a breeze, essentially turning your shoes into slip-ons. And the adjustability allows you to wear thicker socks on occasion and still enjoy the same level of comfort. The plastic latch that the laces slot into is incredible solid. Just be sure to really yank the laces and pull them into the slot as far as they will go for a super secure tie that will never let you down. I prefer these round laces over Xpand's flat laces because here the lace ends rest on top of your shoe. While it's not a 100% seamless look, it's way more comfortable than tucking them inside the the top eyelet like you do with their flat laces and adjusting them is far more simpler. Installation is a little more complicated than regular laces. I recommend wearing your shoe and adjusting the tightness before trimming the lace ends, and leave the ends long enough that you can tuck them underneath one of the further lace straps with lace to spare, as the pull tab that the ends install into will take up a chunk of those ends. Something to note is that up until less than a year ago, the plastic pull tabs at the end of the lace were prone to busting open if they didn't get a good grip on the lace ends when you install them. But recently Xpand has been using a new pull tab design that clamps down even tighter onto the lace ends for a super secure grip. I have yet to have the new pull tabs become even a little bit loose after installing them. And even if the tabs or the latch gets loose, it'll still be 100 times less often than your shoelaces coming undone. Overall I highly recommend Xpand laces. They're comfy, secure, and efficient. Just what a shoelace aught to be. Buy them, your future self will thank you.

Like a charm! It’s like they were made for them! On and off with ease and as fitting as you’d like them. I now have slip on Timberland’s, the only downside is that now I have to replace the laces in all my Timb’s as that just won’t do! Get the round one’s.
