What Is It?
LaceAble is an adaptive shoe-fastening system that helps individuals secure and adjust their shoes without tying traditional shoelaces. Designed to support independence and accessibility, LaceAble can be used with one hand and allows many lace-up shoes to function like slip-ons while maintaining a secure, customizable fit. It may be helpful for individuals with limb differences, limited dexterity, arthritis, neurological conditions, or anyone who experiences difficulty tying shoes.
LaceAble is designed to:
- Support one-handed shoe fastening
- Reduce reliance on fine motor skills
- Help users maintain independence in daily living
- Keep shoes securely adjusted throughout the day
- Convert many lace-up shoes into slip-on footwear
- Preserve the use of original shoelaces instead of replacing them with specialty laces
- Provide an adjustable fit for recreation, exercise, school, work, and everyday activities
