The laces are almost 20 inches too long and uncomfortable as you have to knit 3 loops that are too big to avoid tripping over the loose ends. Then, after a 2-mile walk, another 10 minutes are spent untying the extra knots. The color also makes it difficult to find a replacement. Overall this shoe is disappointing compared to the same manufacturer's On-the-go City 3.0 hiking shoes I bought 2 years ago which are no longer available from Revain.
