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!

Yes, it was really easy. I have one pair that I removed two links from. All you need is a thin flat head screw driver and a pair of pliers to remove the small pin, cut off two end links and then replace the small pin. They work great!

The laces should be great. Just take your old ones out, measure their length and get the closest length of these.

They are quite smooth, but the upward slant on the hooks work well to keep things in place. I don't use it for ties, though, so I'm not sure.

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

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.

Tips are smooth however my ties have not fallen off the hooks at all. (Just as a note I wear a tie 6 days a week so I am always pulling ties off and on and never had a problem with them falling off).

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.

Yes. Looks great. A very slow process to lace but if my 17 yr old son can do it you can also.

The bundled laces are elastic, which is a problem. No matter how hard I tried tight them up, they just can't provide enough support to fasten the hiking boot (Salomon X Ultra Mid 2 GTX). I ended up using just the lock & clip with original laces from the hiking boot, which is not elastic. The combination works much better than the lock laces.

its more like 2 feet long and are made of a soft plastic, so you probably don't want to lace up your shoes with them. Just use them with your usual laces as decorations. they also aren't very bright.

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

It takes two hands to set up the lock laces into place. Mainly slipping the laces into the lock wheel because it is not difficult but not easy to hold the button down, which opens the wheel, to allow the laces to thread into. After the set up process, fit the shoe how you want it to feel while wearing them and you will never need to tighten, loosen or use two hands to slip your shoes on again.

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.

nope - just like shoelaces... you can tie a simple knot and they stay snug...

I dont think you could tie any knots with them on but using rod and reel should be no problem. They do keep you dry and are pretty warm.

They come untied quite easily until they are worn in and softer/ flexible. Until then use a double knot!
