  1. Are there running shoes that have the velcro straps instead of laces? If so
    who makes them?

  2. Lots, try Kmart, Walmart, or any 5 and dime. None of them are real
    running shoes, but they have velcro.

  3. The walmart & kmart shoes are [censored]!!!!

    Why do you want velcro? When new it grips pretty well but after a while it
    picks up fluff and loses its grip. I wouldn't have thought it would be up
    to the rigours of running/racing.

    If you've got arthritic hands or some other reason why you can't use laces,
    then perhaps you have a good reason but running shoe maufacturers aren't
    really aiming at the old and infirm.

    There are other lacing systems that don't involve knot tying which may suit
    you if that's a problem.
