We needed this? :doh: Nike teases self-lacing shoes you can control from your phone
When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others. Same thing when you are stupid.

I certainly do, too old and fat to get at shoe laces so I wear slip on shoes. I do doubt I am the target market for exercise apparel though :-O

Is there a market among people who find velcro too difficult to deal with?

Good question. I'm wondering if there will come a day where you can't even dress yourself without a smartphone. I wonder if Nike is going to make this a service and charge customers a monthly fee to lace their shoes.

I guess it could be useful for those who can't see the laces to tie or velcro to attach. Of course, getting ones shoes on would also be a challenge for them.

That will go well with the Sock Slider[^]
I may not be that good looking, or athletic, or funny, or talented, or smart I forgot where I was going with this but I do know I love bacon!

Even completely blind people learn to tie shoelaces. I am not blind, but being the father of a visually handicapped girl, I met quite a few kids who where. They tie shoes without more problems than other kids. Maybe it takes a little longer for them to learn, but even seeing kids need lots of practice to learn it porperly. When I tie my shoes, I don't look at the laces I never need to look at them. I have had quite a few years to practice it, though.

In a follow up news story (not yet published!) the FBI is requesting that Nike includes a back door in their sneaker controller so that agents can untie the laces of criminals running away.

On a more serious note, it wouldn't surprise me that the NSA finds it's way into this by having NIKE place a gps tracker in them.

It was not clear from my post but I was actually thinking of people who are so heavy they can't see their own feet.
