I just received these, and they're seeming to fray after only one day of use. I can see some of the green innards of the laces. Anyone else ?

I have used them for two months now in construction. The only problem is that the color has faded.

I would contact ironlace themselves and explain, im positive they would send you a new pair for free. I have 2 pairs of ironlaces and the ones that are older started to fray at the ends after about 3 months of heavy use, so i plasti-dipped the ends and they came out awesome. So if you contact ironlace and they don't require you to send the old ones in i would highly recommend you do that

I bought two pairs of these couple months ago; still on the first pair. My estimate is they'll last a long time. I can't be more specific, cause my walker usage was temporary. But I'll vouch for the percieved quality. BobR

So far, I have not had this problem with them. I have worn the leggings 3 times and machine washed and hung up to dry.

Yes I did shorten mine too with a very sharp knife and then put very small snap ties on the ends of them to make sure they don't frey even though they probably wouldn't anyway. Great laces nothing better I put mine into rocky boots that are 2 years old and were them every day and will get another year out of them too. Buy the laces like I will every time... 10 out of 10

Hello, my string worked for about a week. Then we had a week of dreary days and rain and they have not worked since. I really liked them! The company is supposed to be sending me a new string. The wait is crazy long. We'll see...

Mine has held up well and even left them out in the snow...been a rough winter and not much fade to them at all.

They seem to help with red green. That is my deficiency. I do feel like they help. I don't wear then often but notice a definite difference in colors when they are on.

I have treated mine all the same and they are doing wonderfully. You will need to water or spritz them with DISTILLED water- that does make the difference. Otherwise they are pretty hardy.

I also haven't had a problem, neither with breakage nor stretching, and I use the colored bands exclusively. My original band is green, but I've been using the navy blue band as my go-to for a few months now. I think it's probably worth the expense of getting a new band and perhaps with each battery charge switching bands to give each a chance to rest between uses. Just a thought....

you might already know this but they have holes in them for your shoelaces I've worn them all my work shoes for quite a long time and they hold up quite well I hope this helps

We are returning a pair today for the same reason. It seems that at least half of those sold by this seller have he same issue. It's either VERY poor quality control, or they are recycling the returned items that don't work and reselling them. Completely disappointed, we'll be looking for another brand.

Yes, absolutely. A friend also bought a pair and has had the same issue. I woudnt touch them.

Sounds like they're defective. Mine have an attached insole (with a slight bit of cush at the heel), no plastic webbing.

Mine started to fray the first day I had it. I haven't worn it since, and, I wont ever order another one.

What was defective about the first pair? Explain what you mean by "grungy". Ours were clean.

I have been wearing mine in my tennis shoes and they are worn nearly everyday. I received my pair about 2 months ago and still in great shape. I would say replace them if they start feeling flat under your feet or pain returns. You can check their website too for more specific information. I love mine though! :)

I have not had any fraying from them so far. And I have used them a lot over the hole summer from softball tournaments to the dirty dash runs.
