Work well, easy installation, hold well, laces don’t drag on the floor
The media could not be loaded. This lacing system works really well, simple install. This lacing system turns even mid height boots into slip ons which is very convenient.These locking laces stretch snugly to keep the shoe secure and are a LOT more hygienic at the gym than standard laces. These locking laces can be trimmed to keep them off the floor.My new go to gym shoes have standard laces and they keep getting untied regardless of how tightly I lace and tie them. Great shoes, lousy laces!These new locking laces are a great concept that is well executed in reality and are the ideal fix for my purposes which was to prevent laces from untying, dragging on filthy floors and making all my hoots “slip ons”.I used a different, lighter color locking lace on my Icebug tungsten stud boots to easily differentiate them from my non-studded boots.If you’re not familiar with Icebug studded boots, they have tungsten carbide studs for traction in ice and snow and are a must for me in my location.The issue with Icebug studded boots is that that they will scratch or damage ANY indoor floor in seconds, hence the lighter colored laces to tell them apart from non-studded boots.My only “con” was not seeing the 2 pack for $17.99. I spent $11.99 for one pair. I wound up buying 6 pair of locking laces.Easy install and universal fit on most low to medium boots. Best shoe/boot upgrade for my purposes!

Patrol/Specialized Unit
Edit: Upgrading rating to 5 stars. Laces held up during a tornado and I had to run, climb, crawl through rubble and go through streams filled with crap. Laces held up supremely well, dried out phenomenally fast and still work great. Will purchase again.Disclaimer, product only received 4 stars due to not being able to tighten and hold firm. Understood that its a bungee bungee product and that was always a possibility.Cons: The laces hold the boots to your feet, and my boots have been used for almost half a year already and conformed to my feet and were never loose during previous uses. However no matter how tight i pull the laces, they will never be as tight as any normal lace (always a possibility with this type of product) i can run well enough in them, but they do allow my foot to slide if i push any direction but straight back with any degree of force. I dont know how well they would workout if i had to fight with someone standing up.Pros: They are comfortable, have 0 annoying squeak sound that some laces produce. Look good enough, and ease of putting on and taking off boots are similar to zipper boots without the risk of blowing the side out.I would recommend for any application other than a job that requires climbing and outdoor work due to the inherent risk of loosing proper footing. They would do well for any retail, factory, postal work, medical field, etc.Tldr: good product for moderate levels of activity. Might be less efficient during uncommon physically demanding situation.

Fantastic product
I have been using these laces for 7 years now. They are fantastic. I use them on my work boots and have not had any issues with them at all. My boots have the quick lace eyelets on the top, so I can just loop the laces in the eyelets and don't have to adjust the locking mechanism. I did, however, have a slight issue with the laces loosening up throughout the day. To alleviate this, I tied a knot in the end of the laces to prevent them from sliding thru the lock. (See pic).I don't know how well this would work for boots without the quick lace eyelets.I do seem to break a set of laces ever year, but for the cost and ease of use, I keep two spare sets of laces at home at all times.They are also time savers if you wear your boots thru airports also....

They work effectively
I have tried a couple of these types of products in the past to disappointment, but not this time. They are easy to use and do not let the strings slip or loosen, which was the problem previously. Yeah, I know, how hard is it to tie your shoes, but these are very quick, very easy and very secure, which just tying your boots is not.

Worked Great, I Bought 2 More Sets
I hate how my boots were coming untied multiple times a day at work and thought I would give these a try. They worked great. I bought a set for my other work boots and my hiking boots. They are easy to adjust to the size boot by simply cutting to length and using the snap on clip to hold. The are sturdy and hold the boots to my desired tightness. The first pair I bought are probably a year old now and still going strong with multiple uses per week. The color is as shown and look great on the boots.

Nice laces. Great concept
Love these laces. Going to order more. Makes taking boots on and off a breeze. Great concept. Easy to put on. Took me about two minutes. Good quality. Seems like they will last awhile. Hold their elasticity well. Not sure how they would do after get wet a couple times. Adjustable tie length makes them perfect for any boot. Solid black is a good color choice. Would be nice to see them in brown or desert tan.

Always Work Great!
I really can’t say enough good things about Lock Laces. I’ve purchased them for practically every pair of lace up shows that I own. As soon as I get a new pair of shoes or boots I immediately order Lock Laces for them. This pair went on a pair of Keen hiking shoes. They’re easy to install, last a LONG time (I’ve never had a pair wear out), make putting shoes on and off much faster and NEVER come untied! I highly recommend them.
