Would these be appropriate for basketball shoes?

I would not use this for basketball shoes. They are more work book boots. I believe you would be quite uncomfortable with them in basketball shoes.

No they are a thin round lace therefore may be uncomfortable in a basket ball shoe

I'm sure they'd work, probably eat up your shoe eyelets before they'd ever break. They're like steel cord, real ridged and tough.

I think these would work fine for basketball shoes. If using while playing basketball, just make sure you tighten each row of the laces after you put your shoes on. I wouldn't use these if you're a "I'll just slip on my tied shoes" kind of person.

Yes, they could because those are more normal size shoes. If someone wants to use these on Alpine ski boots by a larger size then what you think you need.

I used them on my running shoes, but I had a considerable length that I had to cut off the end of the laces. I believe they would work on hiking boots.

These can be used all the time. I have been using them when wearing shoes since I bought them. Good Luck!!

Yes! If no more than a half inch. They also are a great comfort, if the toe box of your shoes is hard.

I think these small ones would be, I guess it depends on your shoe size. I've only tried these, but it follows.

Not with minimalist shoes, but I've found mine irritating to run long distances with normal running shoes. They are great for hiking on uneven ground, softball and pickup basketball.

I think they would be fine. You can make them as tight as you want. You also cut the strings when you put the clip on, so you can choose how far the extra lace and clip extends. I am not a basketball expert though.

Yes they can. They do take up a little space in your shoes of course but they work well. I find them to be quite comfortable and they help.

I would say probably not...Shoe Goo is NOT a "glue" it is meant to add additional surface to your sneakers sole. If you used it to build up the sole over the slit it would definately have some effectiveness. But if you used it as a glue to hold together the slit I doubt it would work.

Yes- these should be great! These are thick and soft, but should stay on a gym floor without much slipping. The basketball can also be bounced on the spot without sending it all over the place.

Yes. I would recommend placing them under the insole that comes with the shoe.

Well if its too wide, you can always cut them down. they are sized to fit most guys regulars shoes, it might be wide enough. I use them in my Asics running shoes

i don't think it's a good idea. although i haven't tried to move them from shoes to shoes i did try to reposition them two or three times to find the fight spots. the sticky foam at the bottom will eventually torn if you are not very gentle with them. i just bought enough pairs for all my shoes to have their own pads.

Absolutely. If the toe area of your shoes are already tight, this might be too much. But otherwise, this is fine for any shoes.

Yes if you have the righ size baskets and don't mind pulling them out every time you need too remove or replace the shoes

depends on where they are big. they mostly fill up. so thay wouldn't necessarily help a shoe that was too wide or long. when i put them in one pair of sneakers i had to loose the laces as the pushed the top of my foot up into the top of the shoe
