What a difference!
These work amazingly and look great. I'm almost annoyed as now I'lll have to add £8.99 onto the price of every trainers I buy for the rest of my life for these bad boys. Be aware, the white is DAZZLING and reflective white, they are much brighter than the white trim on a typical pair of Converse for instance so it stands out a bit if you're worried about that kind of thing.Stretch is just right to be comfortably loose yet snug - there's no way they're flying off from just walking / jogging around or gentle exercise.The hidden fit feature looks uncomfortable but actually isn't, it's quite pliable and cushioned by the lace. I never notice it, definitely less than if you're used to tying traditional laces under the tongue to have shoes slip on/off.

Does the job
Takes a couple minutes to figure it out but the instructions are very simple to use and there are also YouTube videos which can give you a visual demonstration of how to use the product. For for purpose so no complaints. I personally use for my converse trainers as they make my life a lot easier where I can just slip them on and off where usually it’ll take about 30 seconds each time to put them back on again.

Fantastic product but a little hard to install
The product was packaged well and is of a good quality. The shoelaces look like real laces but are of a rubber texture to touch. They expand very easily when trying to put the shoe on. I found the installation process took me longer than anticipated and I had to search videos on how it was done. Overall I think this is a good product would definitely recommend it for people wearing shoes like vans and converse as they are generally a big pain to lace up but these laces have made it a lot easier with my vans

Great
These help my son who struggles with his fine motor skills & muscle weakness in his hands. It makes it easier for him to not have to worry about doing his laces. Length and quality are very good. Easy to lace up too.

Expensive for elastic
Do the job but very expensive when a length of elastics and a staple would have achieved the same thing

A must have for anyone who's autistic!
These are way better than Leazy shoelaces. These fit into any eyelet, there's plenty of it (But it would be great if Xpand made one's that are twice the length for taller boots/shoes), there's plenty of reflective thread, and they're much more comfortable and way less oversensitising.You have the option to use them as normal shoelaces or no-tie shoelaces. I have D-rings on one of my boots instead of eyelets and I just put the smaller stoppers on the ends of the shoelaces to prevent them from coming undone when I'm putting the boots on (They have zips on the sides), and then use them as normal shoelaces (but they have a lot of grip against itself so it doesn't really come undone if fairly tight which I also love about these shoelaces).For another pair of shoes it has eyelets at the bottom and are open zig-zag top so I just threaded the shoelaces through the eyelets and left the top open as I can't keep them in place as it's all open, and didn't put any stoppers on them because it's useless to.And for other pairs that only have eyelets I'm might attach stoppers and hide the rest of the shoelaces under the shoe because I'm afraid that if I cut them they're going to fray, but most likely I'm going to do the same thing as I did for the D-ring boots.

Great product
Used these for some time. They're really good if you like that clean lace look. This takes away the big ugly knot. In my opinion they look best in low profile shoes.. I've got them in my vans old skool and Adidas Hamburg's and they look great. But I don't think they would look as good in a pair of Air max 90s or a set of Jordans for example. I only say this because the width of the lace is about the same as a normal lace but under tension they look a bit thinner and I think would stand out. That being said amazing laces for the right shoe !

Expensive but effective
Initially I was somewhat disappointed to get lengths of elastic I could buy much more cheaply elsewhere and the eight tiny plastic fasteners provided can’t be expensive to make… But, they work and my feet are grateful. Other elastic shoelaces come as round rather than ribbon. I haven’t cut the laces short. They have plastic lace finishers at each end and I prefer the tied look for now. Also I might want to adjust the tension in future. The instructions on Amazon are MUCH clearer than on the packet, especially for the clips designed for outer use rather than hidden. Cream would have been better but I only had the option of black or white at the time of buying.
