I still miss velcro sneakers. I also miss the days when having velcro sneakers was considered cool.

@GaryPoole They were cool? Where was that? The nursing home or a parallel universe?

@MidnightRider They were totally cool for about three months in the summer of 1982, if memory serves. 😎

As I recall, Velcro sneakers were used by parents who didn't want to waste time tying their kids shoes.

Those same kids became teenagers who started a trend of walking around with untied sneakers.

Not as a fashion statement, mind you, it was simply because they didn't know how to tie their shoelaces.
