When you tie the lace, how well does the knot stay tied? I've experienced many laces that come untied easily. How are these?

They come untied quite easily until they are worn in and softer/ flexible. Until then use a double knot!

They don't stay tied as well as normal shoes laces, but I have yet to have them come untied while wearing them.

Hi, for the most part it stays tied pretty well. I don't have issues with them. I wear these boots very often.

I havent had any problems with laces coming untied. I usually break a pair of boots down every 3-4 months, but my laces last.

I always double-knot mine, they hold all day. Not sure how well a single knot holds up.

I use a variation of surgeons knot where I wrap twice so its not a problem... Also try google'n Ted Talks "how to tie shoelaces"... It's bizarre but most of us may have been doing it "wrong" since childhood.

Mine stay tight for a 10 hour work day. The first couple weeks they were stiff and I double knotted them. It seemed after 2-3 weeks that they became more flexible and now I do not bother double knotting them.

We just tied knots, but a strap with hooks or something like that might be best. Especially if much more length is needed. Grandkids love it!

You do not tie it, it just "slips" to the size you want. It has worked very well for me.

Yes. I had a set of these which I used almost everyday for a year and one lace began to fray. I called their customer service, sent a pic via email along with a copy of my receipt and I had a new set within a week..awesome customer service and great laces...!!

I have found a surgeons knot will hold it, but just to be safe put a drop of a type of jewelry glue on the knot.

I used all of the lace last March with my daughter's wedding, so I'm answering from memory; I don't have the lace in front of me. It was made from a soft fabric and was pleasant to touch. It was not stiff and paper-like as some craft laces can be. Some, maybe all, had fine elastic thread in them making it very easy to use as we tied it around bouquets. The card included at least five different lace ribbons, and I was very pleased with my purchase.

I have the no tie one and they are easy to tie if you get the right size. The large for my lab is plenty big w space for tying.

If you like them nice and tight you can lace them up while they are off your feet, That way when you slip them on they will be nice and tight, FYI though the instructions say you are suppose to lace them up while they are on your feet, That way they will conform more to the shape of your feet, I didn't read the instructions and I installed them with shoes off and when I did slip into them they were tight and hurt like hell.

They're just knotted, so you unknot the loose one and tie it tighter. Easy peasy!

Tips are smooth however my ties have not fallen off the hooks at all. (Just as a note I wear a tie 6 days a week so I am always pulling ties off and on and never had a problem with them falling off).

Well, I tied a good knot about two inches down from the top, kept it loose, and hung it on a shepherd's hook, putting the metal through the knot. I pulled it as tight as I could after that. This made it difficult to fill, but I wasn't sure what else to do with it. That was about ten days ago, and it's still holding strong. I have a feeling I'll have to do something different soon. I wasn't expecting a plain rope.

You can attach the strap to your waist. When I do that I tie the straps in a double knot and have no trouble with it. I do not use the strap like a belt as it is too long for me. It does not fall off when tied.

Its fairly wide, so I would say not super easy to tie any kind of knot. It would probably compromise some of the strength of the webbing where the knots were. Its very similar to seat belt strap material.

Yes! You press down on the lock and get them as tight as you want by pulling the lace. Then release the lock. The lock can be a little hard to press down but it works great and stays in place.

None with mine. I have put these on before. Just place so laces tighten firmly. I also put duct tape rolls underneath to stabilize. Works well.
