IBUNGEE LACES (Elastic No Tie Shoelaces (Made in the USA)

I absolutely love the IBUNGEE Laces! These elastic no-tie shoelaces have been a game-changer for me. They were super easy to install, and once on, they fit perfectly. The elasticity is just right, giving a snug fit without feeling too tight, and they make putting on and taking off my shoes so much more convenient. I’ve been using them on my running shoes and they’ve held up great during workouts, staying secure without needing constant adjustment. The no-tie design makes my shoes look clean and neat, and I no longer have to worry about laces coming undone while I’m out and about. Overall, I’m really impressed with the quality and functionality of these laces. If you’re looking for a comfortable, durable, and hassle-free alternative to traditional shoelaces, I highly recommend IBUNGEE laces. Worth every penny!

I absolutely LOVE my IBUNGEE laces. I purchased a set for my Brooks running shoes a couple of years ago. I just got a 2nd set for my NEW Brooks shoes. My first set is still perfect and in great condition and I wear my Brooks a lot. They make putting shoes on and off so easy. I will always have these on my running shoes. They also just make wearing my shoes more comfortable.

I've now tried three brands of locking laces, so I can do a comparative review. First off, let me say that I don't use these the usual way. I wear these with Top Sider sneakers to make the shoes feel more secure on my feet and to prevent laces from coming undone. I maintain the tied lace look by tying a traditional loop and double knot above the locking piece. I tie and untie them frequently, which involves sliding the laces through the locking piece. First to be used were the "10 Seconds" laces. They only come in one length so you have to cut one end to get each lace to size. Then you have to burn the cut end momentarily with a cigarette lighter to seal it. You pay a slight aesthetic penalty, but considering that it's on shoes that get battered no one will notice. The laces go easily through the lock piece and slide easily, too. The 10 Seconds lock piece was the best of the three. Verdict: Recommended -- if you have the nerve to burn them. Second to be tried were the "Lock Laces". These come in a variety of sizes, and unlike the other two brands they include a sort of alligator clamp in addition to the lock piece. You take the ends and put them in the alligator clamp and slide the clamp under the top of your shoelace. The lock piece, if you'll pardon my language, was a "bitch". My hands are lady sized but they're strong and I had to grimace and curse to get the damned things to open to allow the laces through or to slide them. The alligator clamps didn't work. They repeatedly let go, a sad excuse for an alligator. Verdict: Epic fail Third to have a go were the "iBungee". These, too, come in a variety of sizes. The lock pieces, although somewhat harder to work with than the 10 Seconds, were much easier than the Lock Laces. Be careful when removing the lock (to switch shoes) that you don't strip the plastic protectors off the lace ends. So, no aesthetic penalty and relative ease of use. Verdict: Recommended

The iBungee laces work as promised, and they don't look ugly like some of the other stretch laces I've seen. They're comfortable too. These things are so cool! I've had them on my shoes for 3 weeks now, and I love them! It's so much easier to walk the dogs several times a day when I don't have to mess with tying my shoes. My only complaint is that the sizing information could be a little better. I wasn't entirely sure on which length to order, so I gave it my best estimate based on the chart. I wear a Womens 9, and the Nikes I got these for have 6 sets of holes and 1 set of loops. I picked the 34 inch laces. I probably could have gone with the 32 inch, but that would be cutting it a little close. Overall, very pleased with this purchase! I'm even thinking about converting all my lace-up shoes.

A friend gave me his pair of iBungee laces after he tried them and was dissatisfied with stretch laces generally. Plain and simple: I love them! I'd recommend them to others, especially runners and triathletes. Very nice in racing shoes, too, and completely eliminates the risk of laces coming untied. PROS: They lace up like regular shoelaces, then you slide the ends through the spring-lock and, optionally knot the ends together so the spring-lock can't inadvertently escape when they're loosened. The laces are really easy to adjust, tighter or looser, both at the spring-lock as well as along the shoe. The spring-lock uses a strong spring and hasn't lost its grip on the laces in >500 miles, something I can't say about the Lock Laces in my son's shoes. These make it very easy to customize the fit of the shoe along the foot, to snug it where you want and keep it from being over-tight elsewhere. The reflective model has a more textured surface that slides less easily through the lace holes, so perhaps the non-reflective version might self-adjust and distribute tension evenly as you run. That could be good or bad, depending on what you're trying to accomplish. For me, the forefoot and ankle portions can be differently tensioned and stay that way with no further attention, even on runs of over two hours. CONS: I have the reflective model and have noticed that the reflective portion seems to be "darkening" at the upper portion of the laces, which gets more frequent travel through lace holes and the spring-lock; the lower portion still looks like it's fresh out of the package.

I first heard about iBungees during a trail race when my wet shoelaces repeatedly became untied. A woman ran past and said "iBungees." I didn't know what they were but went home and searched on the computer. Now all of my running shoes have iBungees and I never have to worry about my shoes being untied. They also make getting your shoes on and off a breeze (like putting on slippers) and you can adjust the tightness which is really nice on a long run. They work, they're simple to put in your shoes and they seem to last forever. Great product!

I read and read and read reviews about this product. I had never used this type of shoelace before, so I didn't understand exactly what I was getting or how it works. I read reviews that didn't agree about whether or not to follow the chart the company provides as to which length to get. I ended up deciding to trust the information the company gave - the WRONG decision. My laces are short, not too short to work, but too short to be comfortable. They usually work fine, but often will slip out because they aren't long enough. I imagine that this is true because I have wide feet. The chart the company gives is based on the number of eyelets in the shoes. However, they obviously don't take into account the width of the foot. If I had gotten the next length up, I probably would LOVE these shoelaces because they would be so convenient to slip on and off. However, with the length I have, I have to be careful that the white thing doesn't fly off.

I wish I discovered these laces years ago. I cam across these while looking for some replacement laces for my running sneaks and the idea of not having to tie my sneakers and to have some elasticity in the lace sounded very attractive. Lets just say that now that I have tried these laces I will never use regular laces in my workout or running sneaks again. Working out at six in the morning evening tying sneakers can be difficult. I love that can just slip them on and not have to worry about double tying my laces, or hearing long laces flapping around or irritating me during a workout or run, or having to stop because the laces are either too tight or too loose or coming undone. These laces just give me one less thing to worry about with my running sneakers and they make my sneakers even more comfortable. As far as size, I wear a womans size 9 running sneaker and typically wear just Mizuno's. I leave the last lace hole free and tie my laces one hole from the top. I ordered the 36 inch laces and they fit perfectly with just enough room to give some stretch, not be too tight, and allow me to tie off the ends right at the lace hole I prefer. If any of this sounds good to you give these a try!!

Worth it

Work very well, I would argue that you could go down 1 size compared to the size chart if on a hiking shoe. This allows for less lace to be flopping around when tightened.

Produit conforme à la description. Bien choisir sa taille, et faire preuve de patience lors de l'insertion des lacets dans les œillets !

Grundsätzlich sind diese elastischen Schnürsenkel OK, sie haben aber einen wichtigen Nachteil gegenüber den meisten vergleichbaren Produkten: Sie haben statt des üblichen separaten Stoppers aus Kunststoff am Ende nur die von normalen Schnürsenkeln bekannten verschweißten Hülsen. Das ist besonders ärgerlich, weil die Schnürsenkel nicht genau die Länge haben, die angegeben ist. Einen unschönen Knoten muss man also immer machen, bei gekürzten Schnürsenkeln auch, um ein "Aufribbeln" der Enden zu verhindern. Das ist bei fast allen vergleichbaren Produkten besser gelöst. Optisch sehen die Teile (wenn man einen vorhandenen Stopper weiter benutzt) gut aus, insbesondere bei ganz schwarzen Schuhen. Alle Teile ganz in schwarz sind relativ schwer zu finden. Deshalb hatte ich mich ursprünglich für dieses Produkt entschieden. Ich konnte auch den Stopper von den alten, mittlerweile gerissenen Schnürsenkeln weiter nutzen, kann die Schnürsenkel also gut benutzen.

Se ven mejor en las fotos. Cumple con su función, ya que es un cordón elástico al cual le puedes hacer un nudo al final sin tener que deshacerlo cada vez que te pones los tenis. No me gustó lo delgado que son los cordones ya que le restan estética; lo que si siento que demerita el producto en relación a su precio, es que la terminación de las puntas es barata y mal hecha y tienden a abrirse como cualquier agujeta barata de no más de 5 pesos, siendo estas unas agujetas de más de 100 pesos. Mejórenlas.
