This may sound super lazy, but my regular walking around shoes are a slight pain to keep in good condition by untying and tying the laces each time. I'm beyond the phase in life where I just jam my foot in and eventually crush the heal portion into dust. This seems like a nice looking option where I can slip them on without needing to untie but they'll still be snug enough to walk around comfortably. I think I'm sold.

bought these the other day http://easylace.com in amazon, they're amazing. but also 10 bucks per pair...not cheap, but if they last a year will be totally worth it

Love the idea, but 25$ for 3 pairs? Ouch! Are these NASA rated shoe laces?

How do these compare to Lock Laces (www.locklaces)? They seem to be at the same price point (i.e. 3 pack for $20).

I actually just recommended these for a student the other day! They're great for people with disabilities and much less conspicuous than most alternatives (which my middle schoolers often appreciate)

I would have loved this in kindergarden - I was shoe-tying challenged and had to have friends help me. Sounds like a fun present for parents who are tired of tying their toddler's shoes.

I use a magnetic shoe enclosure called Zubits (https://zubits.com/) -- they're awesome. You can use them with your existing laces.

Uh yea... Totally want some for some of my shoes. Really see the value for my kids though while they're still learning to tie their shoes and sometimes we're just in too much of a rush to go through all that.

This product should be more targeted towards kids or senior citizens.

I think I bought a few pairs of these when they were on Kickstarter. I still haven't used them...

How is this different than using braided elastic had for a feed bucks at Walmart?
