MangoRhinehart Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Updated Review: I have played about 15 games with these. I had some initial wearing on my pads due to velcro and clarino having a go at eachother but that seems to have resided. I put a patch of moleskin on the boot channel and that seems to be holding up well and not wearing. It could have also been fresh clarino shedding a bit. Ive noticed that I have to check the screws between games for tightness, but could loctite it. In terms of speed of getting my skates on, these are awesome and while I cant get them super tight, I feel I get a very consistent tightness and overall good comfortable fit with the halo laces. Definitely wont be going back to laces. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OG goalie Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I am getting my Halo laces in the mail today. I am always looking for innovative ways to make gear easier to put on. I don't like showing up 30 minutes early if I don't have to! I'm hoping these work for the skates. I typically wear my skate laces tight all the way up but leave the very top eyelet open and that has worked for me for years. Before I'd get awful skate bite. I'll try to write an honest review as well after wearing them for a few games/pickups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Does anyone find that the eyelet attachments interfere with your pad? Would be better if it was a flatter profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bener4Life Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Has anyone tried these for player skates? I have a guy on my team that uses one on his ankle but I'd like to know if it would be better with 2 or more on each skate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insertnamehere Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share Posted November 18, 2021 While I love the convenience and consistency with these, I'm not loving the wear I've noticed to start on my skates and pads and will be going back to laces for the time being.

johncho Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 This was my very concern. Would you for the time being be able to place a drop of liquid black tape or something to over the burrs on the screw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's the screws that are causing any damage, it's more the other hardware involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, it is the raised edge on the base that attaches the ring that sticks out. Has anyone suggested a low profile version for goalies to Halo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
