I wear laces because if I go down I want my boots to stay on my feet. I double knot the laces as well. Never have had a prob with entanglements.

Nope cut the laces back I love my Rocky boots so they are staying.I sure am glad that the pegs were able to swivel it was a definite Pucker Factor when you are just running down the road sun shining not a care in the world and you cant get your foot to come loose.

I've had that happen too. I prefer slippon boots; Wellingtons or Cowboy.

And don't forget your 'boot magnets'; cheaper n' locktite.
