About this item

  • EASY TO INSTALL & REUSE : Put in Caterpy laces as you would with traditional shoelaces, there's no extra hardware to install. You just lace up once and never need to touch your laces again. The laces can be taken out and reused for multiple pairs of shoes.
  • CONVENIENT SLIP-ONS : Transform your favorite pair of shoes into slip-on shoes. Take your shoes on and off without readjusting laces everyday; and avoid breaking the heel of your shoe from cramming your foot into it.
  • ELASTIC COMFORT : Our elastic laces improve your feet's blood circulation as they naturally swell thoughout the day. Knots from traditional laces create choking points and constrict your feet.
  • CUSTOMIZED PERFORMANCE : Our patented elastic bump technology secures tension in each row of the shoe. This allows you to create customized tension throughout all eyelets, instead of relying on a single knot or plastic piece.
  • FEEL THE DIFFERENCE : Once you try a pair of Caterpy and feel the difference, you'll never want to go back to traditional shoelaces. Caterpy laces are guaranteed to last the life of at least one pair of sneakers.

  • Caterpy Sizing is mainly based off of the number of eyelet rows a shoe has. Foot width and length also play a part. Please see the sizing charts above, if you think you are between two sizes we recommend sizing up.

  • The easiest way is to deal with excess lace is to tuck them under the rows of laces or hide them in the shoe. You can cut them as a last resort. To cut, please carefully use sharp scissors and cut directly in the middle between two bumps.

  • Yes! Caterpy was initially created by a Japanese marathoner who didn't want to worry with fidgeting with his laces during a long race.

  • Yes! Caterpy laces are durable and can be used through the lifespan of multiple pairs of shoes. Please note if you cut the laces, then they will lose their reusability.

  • Yes, Caterpy laces can be washed! Please do not machine dry them as it can affect elasticity.

Stretched out too quickly

The caterpy laces make it very easy to get your shoes on and off without tieing. They keep your shoes exactly the correct tension and they allow you feet to flex, since they are stretchy. I use them on my "barfoot" type shoes that I use for running and weight lifting (Nike Free and Whitin canvas zero-drop, respectively). They work well for these uses.I tried using the caterpy laces on some stiffer carbon-plated running shoes and they did not work well at all. I recommend only using the caterpy laces on very flexible sole type shoes.

I have bought a few different types of no tie laces. Theses are the easiest to install. You must tuck the ends between the togue and the top of your shoe, or it is uncomfortable.I have now bought 4 of them, so I must like them.They slip a bit, but it is so you can put them on, that is all.No tie, comfortable if you properly tuck your ends.Works. Easy.

These are great & stretchy. I tried a flat stretch lace on my sneaks but they were too narrow and didn’t stay tight. I wear sneaks & outdoor shoes all the time so really wear them a lot. I didn’t want to hassle with tieing laces anymore.The bubbles are elastic too & they help hold lace in place so they are tight on top - you can use as a measure to match both shoes. They were easy to put on, held the stretchy string taught but still lets you get the shoes on. Love the colors- I can get a couple for the cost & be “fashiony” by changing for the season. Also some are reflective too which is a bonus.

Originally saw these in a FB ad & looked into them but decided they were a little too weird & probably didn't work well as I'd not had great experience with no tie laces previously. No way were those little bumps gonna stay in place. But, I'm chubby & out of shape & the floor is very far away making it difficult to tie shoes. So got to looking around & these came up again so thought I'd give them a try. They're amazing! They truly make your shoes slide on & off easily & are just the right amount of snugness. Took them for a trial walk today & my shoes did not slide around at all, could not feel any extra pressure from the bumps (which I was worried about) & they are super easy to tighten & loosen just where you need making for a perfect fit. The bumps make a satisfying little pop when you pull them through to lace them & the end bump stays in place even though my chubby ankles tried to pull them out. Very impressed!! I need more shoes so I can buy more!

Wie auf dem Bild zu sehen sind die Laces bei mir in fast sämtlichen Schuhen, und zwar im harten Einsatz. Seit Jahren zufrieden. Die ersten habe ich 2018 in Japan gekauft, seither bin ich großer Fan. Leider hab ich dieses mal welche mit Materialfehler erwischt, siehe Bild. Rücksendung bei Amazon problemlos wie immer.Tip an Neulinge, die Schuhbändel sind nicht für Stiefel geeignet. Sind auch nicht für große Laschen oder Löcher wie bei Wanderschuhen geeignet.

Ich habe die Schnürsenkel in Japan das erste mal gesehen und gekauft. Das war 2019. Mittlerweile haben alle meine Schnürschuhe Caterpy Laces, sogar die Arbeitsschuhe.Man erspart sich das binden, nix drückt, und der halt ist trotzdem perfekt.

Love caterpy laces, wish they did multi packs as I want them in all my running shoes. Mainly used in a few pairs of Pegasus 35 without issue. Just makes sure you experiment with different variations of laces to make sure you get tightness and looseness where you require it. Thought would be too loose but they grip the shoe so well, without strangling your foot. Never have laces come undone again

I really really hate tying shoelaces and don't feel I want to waste any time down there if I didn't have to, so over the years, I have tried several no-tie laces, all from Amazon. At first, I used (LOCK LACES), and while they gave me what I wanted, I didn't appreciate the "lock" being there hitting my show back and forth as I walked, so then I tried two similar brands (Homar No Tie Elastic Shoelaces) and (Diagonal One No Tie Shoelaces ), and these are pretty similar with an elastic silicone laces you'd individually install to replace shoe strings. And I actually LOVE these (either of them), but installing them took a LONG time, sometimes an hour, sometimes more, and because I changed shoes so often, I got really tired of wasting THAT time, so I tried these, and here are there advantages over the other ones:1) They are very easy to "install" compared to the individual silicone laces. Took only a few minutes2) Unlike the individual silicone laces, they are more easily adjustable. You tied one show too tight? no problem! Just untie and re-tie again! The elastic ones? ugh! It took forever to remove, and I often had to cut them to get them out, and it took a long time to put in another lace.3) They glow in the dark and I feel safer walking outside when wearing them.4) They stay in place, meaning they solve my problem of not needing to untie or tie every time I wear my shoes, I just slip them on and off easily, and I've been using them for 4 months and they never came undone.So my only issue is that they are bulky, compared to regular string laces or the elastic silicone laces, and I do feel them pressing against my foot sometimes, and that makes them something I wouldn't want to buy again, but if you're not bothered by these things then I highly recommend them!
