Jordan Bryden Canadian, Pro Triathlete
I have been a fan of Riplaces since I first saw the laces on a friend’s shoes! I immediately saw the potential to use the laces in Triathlon racing, as they keep constant pressure in the right places. Everyone’s feet are different and being able to tighten (and loosen) certain areas of the shoe is perfect for sprint and ironman triahletes alike! I race professionally in triathlon (and have multiple national titles to my name), but also manage product at Canada’s largest Triathlon store where we sell these laces like crazy!

Justin Works - Student athlete and UCA Cheerleader
As a student athlete I'm always on the go and RIPLACES make my life so much easier!! I'm a cheerleader at UCA as well as a full time student. On the mat RIPLACES allow me to slip my shoes on and off quickly and then not worry about them because I've never had a problem with my RIPLACES coming loose or breaking! And I have RIPLACES on my running shoes and on a pair of converse and not only do I get compliments on the stylish look, I don't have to waste time tying them! RIPLACES are a fast, easy, and fun alternative to laces and I plan on using them from here on out!!

Laurie Lynch, Collegiate Cheerleader Divsion 1 Champion
Riplaces are the best things ever invented. I am a cheerleader at the University of Central Arkansas so I am constantly putting my shoes on for practice. Putting Riplaces on my cheer shoes was the best thing I could have done! It saves a lot of time before practice and I never have to stop to tie my shoes. My shoes always stay on and are always tight. Riplaces are very durable. I've only ever taken them off of my shoes to change the colors! Last year my team wore Riplaces at the collegiate national championship in Daytona, Florida and we won! It was the first time we wore Riplaces and it was the first time our team has won in over 10 years, so obviously there's a connection there! :) I also wear Riplaces on my running shoes. The same pair has been on my shoes for about a year now and I have had no problems! I love them! My shoes stay tight! I'm always in a hurry so just slipping my shoes on and not having to tie them is awesome! I love Riplaces and I really will wear them on my shoes for the rest of my life -
Nathan Holland, Ultra runner
I use Riplaces to train for trail ultra-marathons. I have a lot of shoes I swap between, many quasi barefooters. When deciding what shoe, I mostly end up grabbing my merrell ascend gloves because they have the Riplaces, they're so easy, quick, and comfortable. I've been using them about 6 months and put around 350 miles on them in various conditions from rugged mountains abroad to my texas clay-mud trails. I wasn't sure if they would, but they have outlasted my shoes very nicely. I highly recommend them.
