Laces - Elastic No Tie Shoelaces, One Size Fits All, No Tie Shoe Laces

My wife and I like Yankz. We both do triathlons and they make the transition easier. They really only save seconds, but the mental part of it is easier, its one less thing to think about and they don't come untied later on.If you are comparing, Yankz are a little more difficult to lace up initially than iBungee laces and sometimes the retention system seems to be more convoluted than it needs to be. It's a toss up on which do a better job. I have Yankz on one pair of running shoes and iBungee laces on another. Aside form the new pair I just bought, I have a pair of Yankz that are over five years old and still working great.

I have never tried laces like this before. However, I found they worked great in shaving a bit off my transition in a triathlon last week. I actually have also decided to put them on pretty much all my sneakers (beats tying and untying each time and the fit is the same each time).

My mom has been wearing Yankz for years since she had her stroke and lost the use of her right hand. Since then, she can no longer tie her shoes. We use Yankz in all her tennis shoes so they can be slipped on easy with one hand. They last a long time and are not obvious when worn. It lets her have the freedom to choose the tennis shoe style she wants.It takes some practice lacing them and word to the wise to wear them a few times before trimming the ends. We trimmed a few too short and once they are trimmed, they can't be adjusted and must be tossed.

Work as designed, look cool and make it easy to put/take off shoe.

Great concept. Bought for my 6 year old son. Destroyed in three days. The end of the elastic kept popping out and plastic pieces fell off.

I will be real honest. Not impressed with these AT ALL! Apparently it's so easy that its difficult. The directions I received were not in English! I tried watching videos and still couldn't get it centered or even. I really don't like that you are to cute the strings and tuck them. I don't like tucked shoe strings that was something I was trying to avoid so I thought when purchasing them. This is just my opinion. Others may like them they aren't badly priced at all but these just are not for me!!

Love these things, I have them in all of my casual shoes, to the point where if I have to tie shoelaces, I groan. It's about the first thing I do with a new pair of shoes, change to these. I've tried one other kind, but keep coming back to Yankz. The color combinations mean you should almost always get a fit - and talking of fit, you can manipulate it enough that you always get a good fit (mine usually run a bit tight once I've initially ran them through, then I slacken them off). I use them in all my running shoes and much prefer the fit to traditional laces. Absolutely no issues with any every coming off, or even remotely getting loose.

I bought these for my autistic son. I like the way they keep a shoe looking normal, unlike other no-tie laces. These are a bit strange to put in and the "two-point" locking system kept coming undone; thus loosening the laces far too much. I re-laced them to try to remedy this, but ended up just cutting these laces out of the shoes and replacing them with some less-attractive shoe laces. I gave this three stars because they might be easier to work on your own feet rather than someone else's. I think I would have been better off to not use any of the plastic pieces but just lace them up normally, tie them and never have to un-tie them.
