A shoe's performance is literally held together by its laces. Xpand creator Chuck Harris believed they could be better.
It all began in 2015 when Chuck had the misfortune of contracting West Nile Virus. One of the symptoms he experienced was the swelling of his feet throughout the day. It got so bad for him that the simple task of tying his shoes became painful - and with that, an idea was born.

I like it
Liking the fact i can just slip my shoes on and go! No more fiddling with tightening and tying up the laces. Tried the quick release ones on my runner/exercising shoes and so far no disappointment, it has given the right tension of tightness while running and walking. Quility of the origial and quick release feels great with a thicker sturdier msterial compared to some i have looked at too stretchy and light material that feels will break any time stetched too much. My husband and I have converted all our lace shoes with xpand laces.

Awesome Product
These Xpand laces are great. I was a little sceptical at first, but once I fit a pair of my shoes ...I was hooked. It makes putting and taking shoes off a breeze. Plus, I love the many options of colours. I can change laces to match almost anything. Very satisfied that I purchased this product.

Amazing quality
Bought elastic laces to refit sets of minimalist zero drop shoes. I love being able to throw trail runners on conveniently, and recently put them through a test of long weekend hiking through mud and thick brush. After understanding really simple and clear instructions on refitting shoes, they provide the best combination of snugness, tightness, but provide enough stretch to give a secure fit on your shoes. I've had issues with traditional laces coming loose or poor tension, and these have been great. I've tossed out the majority of my traditional hiking boot laces and mid-ride boots for work and they've been phenomenal as well with throwing them on. Only caveat I hope would be expanding their color selection, as I'm big into having more color matte options. (A subdued olive green or Matte ranger green to go with your tan options, I would definitely pick up a few :) )

These are GREAT!
I'm so impressed with the quality and sturdiness of these elastic laces! I don't have trouble tying shoes, but on cool looking sneakers a bow just looks dorky. These were easy to install, look great, and work well. Just slip on and go. Great colors, too. I bought the flat elastics to replace my conventional laces, and the quick release for joggers and work shoes that originally had round laces. The only thing I wish I had done was order extra end parts--the laces were long enough that I could have done 2 pairs of shoes with one set in some cases. And the quick release system could be a little better--Vibram Fivefingers has a better one that doesn't require pressing the laces into the channels, you just tighten and go. But for a do it yourself solution, these are GREAT!

These are fantastic!
Overall, these have been wonderful additions. I personally double knotted all my shoes so I didn't have to retie and my daughters laces never stayed tied. These bring us so much joy! The best part is wearing the shoes around with the laces to test before cutting. Thank you for your video tutorial! Made lacing, for her first time, fun for my daughter.

Awesome!
Always tied my shoes loose so I could just slide them on. These laces give you that and actually keep the shoe tight as if they are tied the way they should be! Love them!!

Shop Smart Bottle Awesome!!
I just recently got new sneakers and I planned on doing the cut your shoe laces kinda thing and knot them on the inside. Well this product absolutely saved me the headache of dealing with all of that. I was able to put these on and set it where I wanted and now I don’t have to tie shoe laces and it looks a lot nicer than the original laces that came with my shoes. So happy I found these. My shoes slide on easier and better than they ever did before. I was worried they wouldn’t fit or my shoe would slide off or something but I was wrong they fit perfectly and do not slide or anything. I love these and plan on getting more for my kid and other family members in the future. I recommend these hands down!
