I don't wear sneakers much. Most days, I can be seen in my favorite ballet flats Tieks. However, a girl can't wear ballet flats everyday, right? If you do catch me wearing sneakers, I'll be in my Tiffany Blue colored Adidas. I have a slight obsession with all things teal, turquoise or Tiffany Blue, but I digress.
I'm writing this post to share a fun new product I've discovered for your sneakers called Hickies, which are an elastic shoe lacing system. Ruth is a blogger that I follow and a little while back she posted about Hickies on her blog, VivaVeltoro. I was intrigued and Ruth was offering a discount code for her readers, so I decided to try them out.
Armed with my 25% off coupon from Ruth, I headed over to the Hickies website and was super excited to find a set that was a perfect match for my Adidas! I was tempted to pick up a few other fun colors, but decided to start with one pair to make sure I like them first.
Hickies are a no-tie, elastic lacing system that turn your sneakers into slip-ons! I know it sounds lazy, but I hate tying my shoes. Plus, is it just me or are most shoe laces too darn long?!? I feel like my laces are always dragging on the ground or coming untied! Not to mention, they are always either too tight or too loose. Hickies are fun alternative to traditional shoe laces that eliminate all my lace issues. I know, #firstworldproblems right?! Lol!
Hickies will work with most footwear and they are one size fits all. Adult and kid sizes are available in multiple colors, so everyone in your family can enjoy a pair. They are super easy to install and detailed instructions come with each set illustrating multiple ways to wear them depending on how loose or tight you like to wear your shoes.
I'm not a runner or super athletic, but still like my shoes to fit well, so the regular configuration worked perfectly for me. They only took a couple minutes to fasten and I was ready to go. They are adjustable, so you can totally switch up the configuration if you want to afterwards.
14 laces come in a pack. That gives you enough for 7 for each shoe. I only needed 3 laces for each shoe, so I've got some extras left over. Depending on your shoe configuration, you might use more.
If you've got little ones I'm going to bet they will love Hickies! I wish I had these when my son was little. They would have been so helpful to have before he learned to tie his shoes.
I've had my Hickies for a few weeks now and I'm totally loving them. They are super comfy, keep my shoes on and the best part is, I don't have to tie my laces anymore! I know I mentioned I'm not a runner, so I wanted to point out that I haven't tried these out in any super, strenuous conditions, but they do seem like they would hold up if I did. I do use them for my light workouts on my SimplyFit Board and they work great. I'm ready to pick up a couple more pairs in other fun colors and might even snag a pair or two for my teenager and hubby as well!
Hickies has great deals on their site like $0.99 shipping on 2+ pairs or buy 3 get 1 free. You can also check out Ruth's blog for a discount code. Pick up a pair for yourself and you can thank me (and Ruth) later!
