"A friend gave me a pair of these laces. I tried them and immediately loved them. I used the laces all year including the Olympics!!! Simply the best product. I'm not sure I want my competition to know such a simple thing can make such a big difference to comfort and fit of the shoes. A lot of companies have tried to make a lace like this. You are the first one to get it right."
Charlie Merrill, MSPT - ALTA Physical Therapy
"I was skeptical initially about how an elastic lace would work on technical trails and hilly terrain. Once I got the tension set perfectly for my foot the laces were fantastic. My shoes were easy to get on and off, they held my foot very securely, and I forgot I was wearing them even on the most demanding section of the trail.
As a Physical Therapist who works in a very active town where I treat many athletes, I look forward to some of my patients using these laces. My elite athletes will appreciate the performance of Xtenex laces in race situations.
But, my patients will benefit the most because the laces are so adjustable allowing them to accommodate for pain and pressure points. The Xtenex lace is the first elastic lace I will recommend to my patients with foot pain due to their easy and effective adjustability."

"I can't tell you how impressed I am with your Xtenex laces. My husband, children and I have been using them for the past few months and now we can't imagine being without them. I recently placed an order for the whole family, as I feel the product is so good. As a physical therapist, I've seen other variations of shoe laces but I never had any personal interest in using them. I now recommend Xtenex laces to patients, family and friends. Thanks for a great product."
Michael A. Goldman, D.P.M. Alpine Foot & Ankle Clinic
"I’d like to thank you for introducing my patients and me to your product. I’ve not been enthusiastic, in the past, about elastic shoe laces; however, with your imaginative modification to the laces, I have become an endorser. The Xtenex laces do not slip, keeping the heel in the proper shoe location and not causing the toes to encroach into the end of the toe box. These laces also do not damage the Dorsal Medial Cutaneous Nerves of the instep. My patients with severe arthritis, post surgery laminectomy or spinal fusions find these laces quite convenient. Again, thank you from my patients and me; keep up the good work."
Kevin G. Hearon, D.C.
"I teach doctors about feet, gait, and orthotics that treat athletes around the world at every level. I look for products that give an advantage of time or function that I can rely on. The Xtenex shoe lace is one of those products. It combines the flexibility of Stretch, Strength, Stability and Security to a shoe that you only have to tie once. The collapsible knot technology is great for Triathletes or anyone who does not want to keep tying shoe laces but wants their shoe to just slip on."
