DIY for us lazy people

Do you want to turn all your sneakers into slip-ons? (This was actually my husband's idea. I think he got tired of hearing me complain about lacing them on....)

Materials:
Your sneakers
Elastics


1) Take off your old laces.
2) Replace both with the elastics. I cut the elastics' ends diagonally to make it easier to go through the lace holes.
3) Tie the elastics. I do three knots, but before doing so, I wear the shoes to make sure they are not tied too tight or too lose.


Voila!

Yes! My husband refuses to buy shoes that are lace up for that very reason.

Interesting.. I might try too, though I'm fine with lacing up as well.. I hate when the laces are super long, so you step on them, I am, however, so lazy that I didn't yet cut the ones that bother me (I've got 1 pair of shoes that cause me trouble :D)..happy weekend!
