If one of the laces breaks is it replaceable or do you have to buy a whole new brace?

If you know how to sew and it breaks on one of the ends, yes. If it breaks in the middle somewhere, it might be more of a problem since tying it together will substantially shorten the lace. Mine has never broken and I now have two braces and my husband has one. We love them.

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 don't know if the laces are replaceable, but the design is such that I think it would be difficult to break the laces. I have two of them and wear one each day. They are very well made and sturdy. The tension is dispersed across 4 laces, not one. I have been very happy with mine.

Under four years daily use, the edge binding fell off, the hook side of the velcro lost its grip and I developed holes in the loop base fabric before the laces showed a sign of tearing or stretching.

Dear Rose B --It's been a couple of years (I think) since I bought these laces so I don't recall anything specific. My friend installed them and missed a hole. It's not a big deal. It's better to follow the old laces with the new laces. BTW I didn't ask my friend to re-lace the chair. Sorry I wasn't more helpful.

Thank you for your inquiry. The leg tips can be unscrewed and replaced if you find the same size screw with wheels.

It is sewn into the brace and not removable. You could probably cut it out if you had to but it doesn't slide in and out.

Definitely! The lace ends come as a separate piece, so you trim the laces first, then clip the end pieces on.

I don't know, bigT. The brace is made of a strong nylon. I break the lacing up to three different areas that overlap . . with three different shoestrings. I can get the thing really tight. It is close to being a great tape job or even a cast . . I can tell you that the brace forms to my foot. I would think that with flat feet, the brace would stop there, and when you tightened, it would not be able to pull into an arch that was not there. I can tell you it is well-made and strong. The size on mine ran a little big. I have a size 14 foot. I got the one . . I think it is 12 to 14. When I crank on it, it is tight, but I pull the laces together. I hope that is some help.

Go to the manufacturers website and follow the directions they show. If you have further questions, email me an address and I can send you a link for that page. I am very happy with the brace.

One pair of boot laces works just fine. You'll end up with a fair amount left over, as you just knot the ends at the top of the laces.

I haven't tried to replace any spikes. I buy a new pair when I have lost any spikes, I find that they are so low in cost.I just buy another pair.

Oh yes, I replaced mine, they were about $10.00. Had them in just s few days. These are the best crutches ever. I just bought another pair to use inside my home in preparation of another upcoming surgery. You will love them!

It seems like you need the Pins for the Dexter Shoes, you can check the Cleat replacement chart for reference. Thank you,

I replaced mine with it, but it wasn't as comfortable. I ended up putting it on top of my existing one since it had little to no arch support and it worked out for the better.

Contact the seller. If not, It shouldn't be too difficult to replace on your own. You can pick up Velcro at almost any craft/fabric store. Sew it yourself or go to a cobbler. Hope that helps. It is a good product, helped me alot.

It worked great when I used it,especially as it was easy to use vs. proper laces, but can't honestly compare it to other braces on the market due to no experience with any others, sorry! I finally succumbed to foot surgery due to major pronation of my foot sliding away from my ankle (ouch!), and now I no longer have need for a brace, but it worked fine when I needed it! Sorry I can't be more helpful!

I don't know the answer. But I would think it is cheaper to replace the whole unit. The product is pretty well made. I think you would have to abuse it to wear it out.
