This was exactly what I was looking for to use on my Adidas shell tops. Old school look, real fresh. Unfortunately, I find them short from what indicated. If they were bit longer or if the actual proper length as indicated, would be much appreciated but over all satisfied. I tend to skip many holes on my sneakers so a little short was ok. The bad thing is, the more these laces are stretched, the thinner they get so you lose that fat look you're going for which defeats the purpose of buying them. So if you like using all holes in your shoes, get a longer size.
