Nice laces! I wear Vans just about everywhere, with jeans, shorts, or dress/work clothes, but I try to dress up my office Vans by replacing the wide, flat laces, and to give them a unique look. These laces were perfect for my use, lace quickly, tie easily, stay tight, and have minimal stretch.I bought other colors for my other Vans to use too and have experienced the same results. No fraying or damage yet! Highly recommended for laces replacements in Vans and Keens!See full review
