Lock Laces® Installation Instructions - How to Install Your Lock Laces®

See below for transcription:

In this video, we're going to walk you through how to install your Lock Laces®, step by step.

Before you start, you'll need:
- 1 pair of shoes, with the laces removed
- 1 pair of scissors (any kind will do)
- and, of course, 1 pair of Lock Laces

Open the package using the zip lock on top. Inside, you should find:
- 2 elastic laces
- 2 double-eyelet lock devices
- and 2 cord clips, or "end pieces"

We're going to go over installation for one shoe. Simply repeat this process for the second shoe.

Start by putting your foot in the shoe. This helps to ensure that your Lock Laces® fit properly.

Once your foot is in the shoe, go ahead and start lacing up with the elastic laces. The laces will fit through nearly any type of eyelet that your shoe may have.

After you've laced up, give the laces a quick adjustment to make sure they're comfortable.

Next, press down on the button on top of the lock device to open the passages, and thread the laces through the openings. Then, slide the lock device to the tongue of the shoe.

Time for another adjustment. Wiggle your foot around in the shoe or stand up and walk around to make sure they're not too tight.

When your laces are comfortable, pull the excess lace taut with one hand and grab the scissors with the other hand. Cut the excess lace approximately 3 inches below the lock device to leave room for future adjustments.

Next, grab one cord clip. Slide the cord clip onto the trimmed lace ends with the teeth facing the toe of the shoe. Align the trimmed lace ends with the teeth inside the cord clip and clamp together to secure.

At this point, some people prefer to tuck the excess lace like so, but this step is entirely optional.

Just like that, your Lock Laces® are properly installed and guaranteed for the life of your shoe.

I love Lock Laces!! The one step I would add is to lightly "burn" the end of the excess laces so that they don't fray.

[bobbyloomba]

Bought the laces for my golf shoes. No more bending and tying my shoelaces every few holes.

Received my 1st Lock Laces today. Installed and loving them.
So much simpler than having to tie/untie the laces every time.
Recommended 100%

Another suggestion. For older folks or folks with weak fingers...have a pair of pliers handy. They make crimping that clip on the ends of the laces MUCH easier. Especially on boot laces.

[christopherklein]

I agree, the ends need to be lightly melted with a lighter before the end clamps go on. Installed these on 2 pairs of shoes last night and they look great.

This is a well made instructional video. The lock and laces came with no instructions I was getting frustrated and ready to toss them. After viewing the video I am now a happy camper. 🥰

My son is a special needs person, has always had velcro fastened shoes until now. We are hoping these work for him and open up all shoes for him to wear. great video explanation of how to install these laces.

I work as a mailman walking many miles every day so I hope this works for me. Excellent video.

[Wild]

Thank you for this video. I saw the instructions on back of the package but I am an idiot and needed this video

[sassylrhg]

FINALLY! this is what I need! thanks for a great and short video! I hope the lifetime guarantee is real as my Skechers are 20+ yrs old and I only need new laces because the ones that came in the shoes broke...after 20 yrs.

After I watched this I installed my Lock Laces and I love them. I’m now going to buy some more pairs for other shoes I have. 👍🏻

[CynthiaHStringer]

Glad I am not the only one who had trouble!

[freelandk]

Really good product, worked wonders on my sketchers as the laces kept coming loose no matter how I done them. Thank you.

Just got these put on a pair of new shoes, when I went to use them one of the lace came out of the clip, so I managed to fix it by tieing a basic knot over the locking mechanism and so far so good. I struggle with tieing normal shoe laces so this has been a winner!

[christinehanley]

For those of you for slightly older and losing strength in your hands I highly recommend you wear rubber gloves so that you don't lose grip of the little locks. I dropped them a couple times a real pain in the neck. But I'm very happy that I have them now saves me a lot of time bending tying and untying

[marylouiseenglish]

Thanks very much for this short & helpful video. Even though installation is "simple, " I had a few questions before I found this.

Back in the 80’s we had BOW BITERS, Whatever Happened to them ?? Loved them. I had every character !!


They were $1.99 now they’re $45.00

Buy those big rolls of elastic cords online, either in round or flat form. I prefer the flat one, just personal preference. I bought one and I kid you not, I compared it to an elastic lace I bought, and it's the same exact thing! I was like huh....!! Buy the big roll, you'll save so much money.

[cessolp]

Perfect! Properly and clearly explained. Thank you so much for this video😊

[zenwoman]

Thank you for the video! Mission accomplished thanks to you!
