text: These are not shoes, they are shoe laces. Someone has the wrong category on this item. I didn't care for these laces, not the best quality. They curl along the edges when tightened and tied. Then seem like they may be for children's shoes rather than adult shoes. They have a lot of stretch to them & I kept needing the laces retied every time I used the shoes. I finally took them out & used a better elastic shoe lace.
