So, I'm out to get some new foot padding for the season and see tons of "slip on" style running shoe. I didn't know such a thing existed. I did not try any on. They were light and comfy, but surely you can't put any significant mileage on them without some sort of discomfort or complaint, right? Anyone use these?

Life's an endless party, not a punch card.

Doesn't seem too crazy to me. I go weeks, maybe months without retying my shoes. I just slip them on and off. I will nervous tie them before a race though.

20 years ago I had a pair of red and black nikes that had some kind of clear rubber web that went over the top of the foot instead of laces.

I absolutely loved them

Google tells me that is what they were. They are the only pair of shoes I look back and think "damn I wish they still made those."

I don't use slip on shoes but I do use Lace Locks which provide nearly the same functionality.
