I hate to admit that I am of a certain age that I should have been tying my shoes for a very long time. But for whatever reason, somehow I just can't remember how to tie shoes so they don't become untied during the course of the day. I doubt there has been any huge changes to shoelace design, so I have to chalk it up to decreased dexterity.
So I got these shoelaces for me. They keep a constant pressure on my feet and shoes which for me helps me keep my balance. Once in a while the shoes feel loose and I pull the shoelaces to the desired pressure. No re-lacing of the shoes (which I had to do before to make sure the pressure was evenly distributed) and no tripping over shoestrings.
I would recommend them for people who have difficulty tying or keeping their shoes tied. This would work well for children who haven't quite mastered the art of tying their shoes. These would be good for an adult who is unable to tie their shoes due to various problems - injury, arthritis and lack of dexterity for example.
So I would recommend these shoelaces to anyone who is tired of tired of tying their own or somebody elses shoes.
