- Easy to install: lace them through your eyelets like regular shoelaces and tie once.

- Material: a polyester and rubber blend, rubber for the stretch, polyester for the wear, so they keep their snap instead of stretching out like cheap laces. Hand cut and hand packed.
FAQ
FAQ
Are stretch shoelaces a good option for older adults?
Yes. Once you lace them in and set the tension, the shoe becomes a slip-on, so there is no tying or untying day to day. A good fit for older active adults who want to keep wearing the shoes they already love without fighting with laces every morning.
Do elastic shoelaces help with arthritis or limited hand dexterity?
They can. Tying regular laces takes fine motor control, and arthritis, reduced grip strength, or limited dexterity can make that painful or frustrating. Our flat elastic laces are tied once when you lace them in, so from then on there is no daily tying or untying.
Do you still have to tie no-tie stretch laces?
Only once. You lace them through like a normal lace, set the stretch to a comfortable tension, and secure the ends. After that, the elastic flexes as you slip the shoe on and off, and you never tie them again.
Can I slip my shoes on and off without untying them?
Yes, that is the whole point. The elastic stretches as your foot goes in, then pulls back to hold the shoe snug, so you step in and out hands-free like a slip-on while keeping the normal laced look.
What length do I need, and how do I choose a size?
Start with how many eyelet pairs your shoe has:
- Casual low-tops (2 to 4 pairs): about 30 to 35 in
- Low-top sneakers: 45 in (5 pairs), 47 in (6 pairs), 47 to 55 in (7 to 8 pairs)
- High-tops: 55 to 63 in
- Boots and tall high-tops (9+ pairs): about 72 in
To find your length: pull one original lace, measure it flat, and match that length.

WHAT OUR KNOTTY FANS ARE SAYING...
Exactly as described, and now I don't have to screw around with tying and untying my new vans. Wife saw them and now I need to order her a pair
I have bought other stretch laces on here and they feel flimsy like the elastic in sweatpants. These feel thick and "sturdy", if you will. My only gripe is their branding on the aglet. Plain laces would be fantastic but instead they have an "S" on the aglet so it makes them look like laces for kid's shoes.Now, for a note on Adidas shoes. Adidas' site lists shoelace length based on the number of eyelets. I have found this chart to be inaccurate for stretch laces. 6-7 eyelets = 54-63 inches per their site. If you go with even the low end of that recommendation you will get big, floppy laces (see my picture with the gray pants). I decided to size down to 45 inches and they are the perfect length (see the picture with black pants). This is not just for one pair either. I own Stan Smiths and Grand Court shoes and it applies equally to both. So, if you have Adidas shoes consider sizing down. New Balance (574) lace lengths are spot on. Nike (Killshot 2) lace lengths are also spot on.
Perfect for my low top Converse, got the 24β. Could have gone a little shorter, but worked it out. Quality appears good. The color is on point. Shoes are easy to slip on/off; laces work out very well functionally. The give the laces have adds to a comfortable fit. Now, to test the durability βπ»
I never wore my Taos sneakers because the shoe strings were so long. Now using the 24 inch & knotting the ends they are much cuter! Just enough stretch to get them on! Highly recommend!
My original intention was to try to find some replacement laces for all white Rothyβs. The company notoriously doesnβt sell/offer replacements, & a Reddit sub sent me to these laces.
They are a good sub - not perfect. The white color isnβt an exact matchβ¦ the OEM laces have a little more yellow in them. OEMs are a little wider as well. Installed on a menβs & womenβs pair of RS01s, size 45 on the womenβs, and 47 on the menβs. Size is good. Actual size of the Rothyβs laces are 46 W & 51M. Stretchlace has elasticity, so they fit well. Iβll keep them and give them a whirl. Picture has OEM laces on top & Stretchlaces on bottom. Shoe picture has Stretchlaces on both the menβs/womens RS01 in white.
Game changer for my converse boots. I'm going to wear these so much more now :)
Best elastic laces I've tried ever. (See photo) One month after I bought these 45 inch laces, still working great on my size 13 wrestling shoes. Bad reviews must be paid for or some kind of idiots!
Because of where I work Iβm having to lace up more than ten times a day which is a hassle and time consuming, these stretchy laces makes putting on and off my shoes a breeze. Plus their customer service is the best, a model of how every company should operate. Thanks Jamie!
I love having these on my sneakers. I can just slip them on and off while leaving the laces tied. The laces look good and seem durable. The price is okay. If they were a couple bucks cheaper and give them 5 stars. But, if the cost is not a problem for you, I'd say get this.
These laces have completely transformed my Lems boots. I have been trying to embrace the minimal shoe lifestyle. I work on my feet as a custodian on concrete all day and have bouts of plantar fasciitis. The Lems have helped with that, but I just couldn't ever get the laces comfortable. They were always either too loose or too tight. I found these stretchlaces and it completely changed the way my boots fit and feel. Even with lace up boots, I am able to slip them on and off like a slipper, without ever untying my shoes. I. Love. Them. If you are thinking about trying these laces out, I highly recommend.
I've used other brands of stretch laces over the years for triathlon, everyday running shoes, kids' shoes, etc. Their design included intrusive plastic components. The Original Stretchlace look like ordinary shoelaces, but turn shoes into perfectly laced slip-ons. I'm particular about the fit of my running shoes (fussy feet) so the ability to lace them up just the way I like ONCE then forget about them is so convenient! The fit is secure after several 10+ mile runs. Ordering more for my family's athletic and casual shoes. I ordered 47" Flat Grey for women's size 8.5 Brooks running shoes and the laces are plenty long. Could've gone shorter, but wanted extra length for potential "heel lock lacing" technique.
These shoe laces are just what I needed for a corset I bought second hand at Owen's closet that was missing the cord. They lay flat and dont slip around while I am wearing my corset. They are super stretchy and hold their shape worth the $12 for a pair of these shoe laces.
I hate tying shoes and wanted to turn my Vans into slip-ons. These worked perfectly!! I love that they look like regular laces with the ties showing on the outside and aren't plastic/rubber looking like other elastic laces.Tip: be sure to measure the laces of the ones you are replacing and order the correct length for your needs.Pro tip: these are perfect for maternity!
Love these elastic laces already wasn't sure the 50 inches would be long enough but they are perfect
I have always worn slip on vans. I recently got a pair of tie ups and missed the slip on fit. I bought these and Iβm slipping on/off again! And theyβre easier to walk in, not too stretchy. Iβm Very happy!
Love love love this product! The royal blue was a perfect color match! These laces are great because they make difficult shoes, easy to put on while maintaining the overall integrity of the shoe. Game changer!
I've converted almost all of my athletic & sports shoes over to StretchLaces. Makes it easier to slip cycling, mountain biking, stair running and hiking shoes, on & off easily, with no pressure points on the tops of my feet. Plus I love the color choices - I've bought purple, bright pink, and neon green/yellow (which practically glows in the dark). And these are easier to install and adjust, than the "bungee-plus-plastic spring lock" that some other brands use. One suggestion- It would be helpful if y'all could print or stamp the actual size (i.e. S-M-L or inches or cm) more clearly on the outside of the boxes, so it's easy to tell them apart (I order different lengths for different types of shoes). Love them!
Laces broke after about a month of use, very disappointing.
Great product
I got them because I have a difficult time tying my shoes. Iβm physically handicap so my hand doesnβt work as well as it should. I tried them on and they worked really well. The stretchy theyβre comfortable and look like regular laces.
My first pair and I love them!!!
These are great for folks who donβt like to tie there shoes all the time. They truly make your shoes slip ons. It takes a few tries to get the tension right, but worth it when you do.
These shoelaces are great. They work better than they had anticipated. I will definitely get more in the future.
