Could I still cut little slits along the bottom and attach with laces, in addition to the included plastic clips?

no need to cut slits, just weave rope through the bottom, but the clips do great, and allows leaves to be swept through

I just looked at mine, and there are actually opening in the mesh along the bottom that would probably allow you to attach the laces. I wouldn't recommend cutting, as you would ruin the integrity of the net and it may cause further unravelling.

Yes. When you get them don't split them open just slide it in from the front and let the clips snap in to place.

I did not try to do that myself, but the tube (or straws) are both very flexible plastic and would certainly be able to be cut.

I am sure you could tie two laces together but they may be long enough for boots. They come pretty long and then you trim them down.

NOT unless you want to cut the 2 sides. I think they make a shorter size... search for it.

Yes, although I can't quite get them as tight as I could with regular laces. I find that I can get them as tight as I need them, sometimes they get a little too tight at the top and not tight enough at the bottom.

Yes. The bottom is divided into little cells for the charging port, speaker, mic and headphone jack, so you could even use one of those to get the cut started, without removing the entirety of the bottom.

Yes. My only objection to the laces (there are two) is that they (1) do not have anything on the end to stop the progress of the bead and (2) have aglets (the stiff end of the lace) that are too small and too short. Young or disabled hands have trouble dealing with those two issues.

The laces should be great. Just take your old ones out, measure their length and get the closest length of these.

Sorry for my late response. I don't see why not. The lock mechanism holds your laces in place. The elastic laces has an advantage of stretching them. You can tighten or loosen your laces easily to your comfort level.

yes, but I cut with scissors just a little to make the opening easier to attach.

No, I don't believe so. I wish I could make mine shorter, but there's holes that all line up to screw it together.

Yes I did shorten mine too with a very sharp knife and then put very small snap ties on the ends of them to make sure they don't frey even though they probably wouldn't anyway. Great laces nothing better I put mine into rocky boots that are 2 years old and were them every day and will get another year out of them too. Buy the laces like I will every time... 10 out of 10

It will be pretty hard. It's possible but not simple. You need to squeeze the retainer and pull the laces tight at the same time.

I don't see why not. they are flexible and with a heavy scissors could be cut to a smaller size. I have not tried it but I think that would work, as they are not shaped on edges just flat.

Yes, but you would have to cut the elastic strap and pin or sew the extension.

With some effort you can. Though you need to finish with a leather strop or glass see video http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ3KA9VLRt4
