are these laces difficult to tie

No, I purchased mine extra long so I just wrap around twice then tie them snug. Haven't had them come untied once. I'll have to resole these boots before the laces give out.

They are a little abrasive to the fingers but not hard to tie. They hold well.

These laces look and feel quite similar to standard laces. I believe them to be made of Kevlar, as they are EXTREMELY durable! They are flexible, yet stay just where you tie them. Expensive, yes--but for all appearances worth the money as they will outlast standard laces MANY times over!

I don't believe they are, but I think Lock Lace has a differ t lace that is. I wear them on sneakers that have reflective logos on them

we have had to put ties on them after they came apart, but other than that, they serve the purpose well. We have had them for some time now, and have re-ordered other pairs.

They should work fine. The laces you'll receive will be plenty long enough. In fact, you will have to cut off several inches to not have to much flapping. Cut off less than you think - which is not what I did - you can always trim more lace off later if necessary but cannot add back on.

That I'm not sure about. BBall puts a big strain on laces with stops and turns. The laces do stretch. They seem ok for running and walking. The gripper things seem to hold a lot better than others I have had. There is another brand of laces that do not stretch that may be better if the grippers work as well.

Yes they do, although I don't think I used them, and went with nylon pull ties.

None with mine. I have put these on before. Just place so laces tighten firmly. I also put duct tape rolls underneath to stabilize. Works well.

Yes. Put the new laces in the shoes, determine the right length and cut off the excess lace. Then you will need to close to lace lock around the ends of the shoe laces and snap it shut. Sounds more complicated than it really is.

Kind of a tough question to answer affirmatively but you can lace them pretty darned tight... let's put it this way: you can lace them tight enough to be uncomfortable/painful if you want to.

I havent had any problems with laces coming untied. I usually break a pair of boots down every 3-4 months, but my laces last.

I haven't tried the ones with handles, but the ones without are sort of difficult to tie

Sorry! I don't use it anymore, and never had to replace laces, so.....! I don't anticipate the laces breaking since I did use it extensively, and never had a problem, nor a hint of them wearing out. The unit is easy to use, the reason I purchased it, so I am certainly happy with having done so.

I use a variation of surgeons knot where I wrap twice so its not a problem... Also try google'n Ted Talks "how to tie shoelaces"... It's bizarre but most of us may have been doing it "wrong" since childhood.

They are great quality and very comfortable - about 3 inches thick, but they do not have any ties to keep them from sliding off the chair. I attached ties by sewing on long shoelaces.

Yes. My only objection to the laces (there are two) is that they (1) do not have anything on the end to stop the progress of the bead and (2) have aglets (the stiff end of the lace) that are too small and too short. Young or disabled hands have trouble dealing with those two issues.

Yes they do. It is hard to get them apart and it hurts your hand if you try to pull apart each link, but each link does come apart.

you could, but without the stretchiness of the included lace material, not certain that would be an ideal solution. the locks have teeth designed for this material, but they would probably work on regular laces, too.
