Excellent for kids!
My kids were forever dragging their laces because they tied them poorly or not at all. So we tried U-laces and they've been a huge hit. The kids like that they keep their shoes on snug, but still allow them to slip shoes on and off. And they love that they can personalize their shoes with different lacing patterns and colors. I just like that their shoes stay cleaner without bedraggled laces, and that it's quick to get the whole family out the door.
We had tried other lacing systems, none of which lasted very long for us. U-laces are the best!
