It may be because I have the round type shoelace, but I found they do not work as advertised as my shoes always seemed much more loose than when I tie them.
*Removed overly harsh comment since I sounded like a d-bag.
AndyCAre you using hard round style shoelaces or are they puffy oval style? Not sure why you are having any troubles? Would you mind sharing what style shoes you are using them on? We sponsor runners, bikers, skaters and I personally have hundreds of running miles on my Nike frees with Lace Anchors in them. Seems like it's pretty few and far between that we find a pair of shoes that they don't work on so we would love more info. Thanks!

AndyCMine were loose when i tried installing them _on my feet_, but I got it half-assedly adjusted on my feet then tightened it another 2 inches or so off my feet on each lace then was happy with it; tight fitting slip on shoes. More importantly, the shoes now have a consistent tightness.

LaceAnchorsYes, they are hard round laces on SICS Gels. I made sure to follow the instructions exactly but they seem to come loose after a couple of days. I tested them without cutting off my laces since I wear size 18 and it is hard to find laces like those that come with the shoes. Trust me, I really want to love your product and think it is great you are so active with your responses.
AndyCHey Andy, Thanks for the feedback! Certain Hard round laces can be difficult to use with our product. Most round,oval and flat laces are still pretty squishy and work great as you can see from other comments on here. If you send us your Anchors back and include your Massdrop screen name in the envelope we will provide you with a refund via Paypal. If you don't want to send them back hopefully you can use them on some future pairs!

LaceAnchorsI just want to say thank you for watching this drop and responding to concerns and questions! Not enough vendors truly get involved with their customers and are willing to go the extra mile to make sure they're happy. I've said in this thread a few times already that I love your product but it's always great to find out that the people behind a product you love is just as awesome.
JohnMaguire2013Hey John, We really appreciate the support and good words! Honestly we try to run the company like we are "in the customers shoes" :) It's awesome to get such positive feedback from users. It is difficult to make a product that has to work with such a wide spectrum of variables such as different shoes, shoe sizes, feet shapes and sizes, laces etc. There are endless combinations and I would like to think that our product works with a large percentage of them. It's refreshing knowing people are enjoying them. Thanks again!

JohnMaguire2013A plug for Chuck: The best way to show your support is to share this drop with your friends. Chuck was one of the first accounts when I started with MD and he's been an excellent vendor to work with from the start.
