The Laces Issue



This nifty little device caught my attention a couple of years ago. It basically pulls laces together by a ratchet action using just a finger which tightens and locks them in place. Personally, having a weakness in my right hand from a spinal injury, this little gadget would solve my lacing issues. My problem is that the only laces I have trouble with are my shiny shoes, i.e. short and skinny laces. This is fine for runners but would look too bulky on a shoe and worst of all like a disability aid. I normally stick with my Vans, Velcro or slip-on ankle boots to avoid the laces issue completly. Anyway tis a good idea that works.
