You don't need to buy only velcro-closure shoes anymore! The Lock Laces are a stylish alternative to velcro for kids who can't tie their shoes. Now new with improved laces and different packaging.


  • The Lace
    The innovative curved tips of the laces allow the wearer to lace their shoes more easily through the increasingly weird eyelet configurations in athletic shoes. The laces are made with banded, multi-strands of elastic that will not break (the same elastic used for bungee cords). The elastic laces give you greater flexibility with a more comfortable, snug fit throughout the whole shoe. The laces are also water-resistant.
  • The Lock
    The lock is a slidable and spring activated device. The locks are made from a strong, durable and lightweight plastic. The tension springs are made from a metal alloy that will not rust or corrode. The lock holds the laces in place (when knotted) so they stay secure and maintain the desired fit on the foot, never loosening.
  • The System
    With Lock Laces elastic shoelace and locking system you have a product that is high tech with low maintenance. Lock Laces adds convenience, provides a better fit and improved comfort to enhance the performance of your shoes.

    Benjamin F. ★★★★★

    My daughter finally put on her own sneakers this morning without asking me for help, and that alone was worth it. The lace tension holds all day and she can just yank them on, no retying needed.

    Alexander X. ★★★★★

    My son rips through velcro straps but these have survived three months of recess and gym class. The new laces feel sturdier than the older pair we had, and they stay snug without crushing his instep.

    Christopher ★★★★★

    Took these out of the package and swapped them onto my daughter's sneakers in under five minutes, and the elastic tension is just right—snug enough that they stay put but stretchy enough for her to slip them on solo. She's finally independent with her shoes, and that alone is worth every penny.
