Be careful with the laces

By Ranked #844 - Men's Trail Run Shoes November 21, 2008

Good shoes overall -- I agree with other comments citing the stiff feel -- but I should note that there doesn't seem to be a way to replace the laces. The laces are so "protected" that I can't see how to access the lower loops. This hasn't been a problem so far -- and I suppose the thinking is that by protecting the laces, they won't need to be replaced before the shoes themselves are worn down. Call me OCD, but this still bothers me... I like to lace my running shoes differently to ease pressure on the top of the foot -- I can't do that with these shoes. Someone out there correct me if I'm wrong about this: how do you access the lower laces??

Definately OCD... How frequently does broken laces happen on sneakers? On boots I could see that being more likely but if your tearin the laces out of sneakers your probably more at risk of losing toes to no circulation.
