If you're sick of tying your shoelaces then you're gonna love this free 3D printed design for 'Better Magnetic Shoelaces' for sport use with extra strong magnets.
I also have a standard sport version that is almost as strong and has a lower profile here:- https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2383856
They're more comfortable than laces and the magnets used are a lot stronger than the commercial magnetic laces so won't come undone during any hard sport action unless you want them to.
I made a short video to show them off as well as a quick how to here:- https://youtu.be/kVdmidrNOus
The clips meet at a slight angle to prevent the pressure point that the commercial clips give you. If you need magnetic laces for casual (non-sport) use then you might like to have a look at my compact versions (also in the link below).
If you're after magnetic laces for casual shoe (non-sport) use then you should have a look at my compact versions (2) here:- https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2386191
