Just ordered a set with the 2 inch spacing. Thanks for the tip and the $5 dollar discount. Been rocking no toe ties for a quite a few years now since the laces would keep breaking and i was tying in 3+ inches of slack so they were doing almost nothing. Probably going to get into the latest Optik pad for next season. Just want to say that the production of your videos has improved exponentially over the years, cheers to you having skills in more than one discipline. Cant wait to try these out.

6'4" 225lb - 35 year old "Beginner" tendy here with size 11 skates. Love the Trav Spec laces. I originally made my own bungee laces after destroying the ones that were given to me, simply ordered some bungee off of Amazon, attached velcro to both ends and ran it through the Toe Bridges, it worked well but i kept needing to replace the bungee every few weeks or so. I then went ahead and decided to give the Trav Pro Laces a go, and they are absolutely worth it. I've had them since mid-May and have loved them, I will eventually upgrade to the Trav 2.0s when (if) I ever need to.

Great video with lots of explanation. I went back to the basic toe tie from ProLaces that I had custom ordered a while back because the Armor Hybrid on the Lefevre was limiting my pad rotation. I find the standard model works better for me, but I believe I will try the longer Trav Spec as the standard ProLaces will not last forever. I am already starting to see some fraying.

Once we can customize I'm def grabbing a set of the trav spec. Already using prolaces because of you and can't wait to see if these can help, if I can even be helped lol.

Very good video, thanks for the advice💪🏻

I love watching trav vids in the middle of class. No other feeling

Just got my trav specs pro ties today. They look and feel good.

Great video. As a 41 yearold goalie I did notice in my Reebok P2 pads ( 30- 37 yearsold wore same pads ) I had skate laces and my hips and knees hurt. I started using the bungee style with the velcro tabs 2 years ago and it's like night and day. Pad rotates better ( newer Goaliemonkey Kohos ) in my old age haha. Knees and hips dont hurt. I need grab a pair of yours to try out. May of added years to my beer league career.

Cool vid trav! I'm thinking of maybe trying a year of goalie if I do ill pick some trav spec toe ties up!

Bungee cords are much better than regular laces in my opinion. Also removing the boot strap helped quite a lot to free your ankle and get better push.

Be great to see yours available in a BC or Canadian store for us goalies who refuse / avoid hassle of buying online. Love to try em. I removed stretchy things off my Bauer suptemes and went back to laces after 2 years of warriors using nothing at all.

had the stock bauer toe ties and they broke within 2-3 skates then i used laces while i waited for my trav pro laces and ive been using them ever since and i love them

Well worth, just tried em and my knees and hips feel amazing, thanks trav

I'm so old school. Still using laces. Maybe I should try a pair of the toe ties. Thanks Trav. Peace!

I used to use flextoe, i was really happy with them but the cord kept getting thrashed after a season. So after going trough 2 sets i switched over to prolaces, just the normal ones. The screw in setup does NOT work, they kept getting undone and losing a screw on the ice well good luck finding that 😂 so now they are just tied in with laces instead, and working great, looking forward to see how long the cord holds up, hopefully a little longer than my sets of flextoe did 😊

Will be waiting til September. I'm 6'6 can't wait to use these.

solid vid trav

I would not hesitate to buy the Trav spec pro laces again. The bungee laces that came on my 2S's sucked and broke and were no longer stretchy after a month. The pro laces feel like they aren't even there but also feel like they are if that makes sense.

Bungee toe ties are definitely a big help in the world of goaltending, only started using them recently and i noticed a huge difference from skate laces.

Best thing I bought was these Pro lace trav spec.. so worth it. Brother.

I use regular skate laces, but I tie four knots in the bottom of the laces to determine the slack between the pad and the skate. I wear Bauers, and I feel like no matter how I strap them they over-rotate (I get up from a butterfly, and they're still pointing OUT and not coming all the way back to the front of my legs unless I push them with my arms) and I feel like the toe tie helps a little.

Nice great video on the pro laces 😊👊🏽

Been a skate lace guy all my life but ever since I sprained my ankle pretty badly in the summer it’s been a nightmare to skate. Hopefully in about a month these are under my tree and will fix my brutal ankle pains and make my tad too small pads fit a little bit larger. You will hear from me again Travis

Interesting history, great vid

Love your channel and the product looks awesome but gotta say the toe tie thing has got to be one of the easiest DIY goalie hacks out there. Some 3/16” shock cord and a few metal clasps and you’re set.

My skates/feet are pretty small, I use a 7.5EE skate size. Although, I haven't updated to cowlingless as of yet. Would that be considered a 'kid sized feet' situation?

what length of pro laces should i get that can loop around the toe and the heel? I'm 6ft with 8.5 bauer skates and 33" pads. I have Vaughn V7s...do i need the toe adapter? Does each order come with 2 sets or do you need to purchase 2 orders?...thanks!!!

For pads that do not have an offset, could you make offset toe ties that work in the factory center mount?

13+ years of skate laces, excited to see the difference this winter

any tips on how to lace these to the toe bridge properly? Length of lace, type of knot, etc. Thanks in advance and thanks for the video!

I know I'm a bit late to this vid but I have Brians G 5 pads and the toe tie snapped mid game and so I'm gonna buy a pair of the laces cause I need something to help my hips knees so def gonna pick a pair up.

I haven’t used toe ties in years, I find it much more comfortable without them I tried to wear them when I got my new pads this summer but couldn’t get into them

I actually started to wear my toe ties only around the front of my skate a few weeks ago. It made my butterfly widen by about 6in, and my knees and ankles don’t hurt.

My son is 5'11 and size 10 skate he is looking at the PL but not sure what to buy the Trav spec or standard. Sadly he has V9 so he will need that adapter you mentioned.

Thanks for the video man, it was super informative and I tried out the bauer crs toe ties on my new hyperlites because of your video. I actually really like them much better than my old laces, except for the fact that the velcro straps are already falling after a month and a half. I'm thinking I should buy some prolaces as a replacement. How does the length of your laces compare to the length of the standard bauer crs? I find that the length of those were good for me. I'm 5' 11" with size 7.75 skates and no cowling, so if anyone has advice on what length to get I'd appreciate it. Thanks again Trav!

I bought one set of nash toe ties 2 years ago and a thicker 10$ 10foot bundle of the black bungee rope from crappy tire that i replaced the original rope with and use it to fix any issues when they come up. Years of use all for 30$ 🤷‍♂️

Is everyone going with the 1.5 or the 2 for the toe tie length on the Trav2? I'm 6'4" Size 10.5 skates.

I bought my 2nd set of pro lace last year and was disappointed after the cut after about 10 games, I have switched back to the ones that came with my CCM ties. Let me provide some feedback on the pro lace the Velcro tabs are too long and thick when the knot is to thread through my skates, As a suggestion I would like to see a protective piece of material to cover the exposed cord on the toe,

You said that pro laces could make some pads rest a bit higher on your skates. Is it a lot/enough to give pads that are slightly to small a longer lifespan?

im using stock ccm toe tie but after this vid might need to buy some pro laces

What’s ur opinion on toe hooks? If u don’t know what they are it’s just a hook that is on your skate and it attaches straight to the pad. Takes like 3 seconds to put on. I was curious if you ever tried them and have an opinion on it.

Just bought a pair. I wear True custom skates, nothing works for easy toe lacing leaving me stuck with time consuming lacs. My craptakular CCM eFlex 4.9 pads came with the short pro laces. They work better than any other lacing option when I switched back to my Warrior G2 pads. But, True custom skates require the short laces to barely get through the front hole of the integrated cowling, the have to go through the from of the skate lace, then the velcro can be pushed together. Too much to do, too easy to stretch or break the skate lace like that. I also had similar issues to you with other products. What sold me on your laces is I saw a pro goalie with True custom skates in a pair of Warrior G6 pads with your laces wrapped properly through the cowling and velcroed properly, not wrapped through skate laces. Looks like I finally found my toe strapping solution.

Agreed that flexible/bungee toe ties are a game changer. Been considering the Trav spec PLs, but I dont have clown-sized skates like you, only a measly size 10. That said, my current bungee ties (the Vaughns with the weird plastic clip) can only go through the first two slots in my cowling--do you think that the Trav spec PLs will be too long?

Hey I'm just wondering if you ever tried kenesky toe ties, I bought two pairs myself but I dont have a lot of experience with different brands.

How much do they help with ankle, hips, and knees? I know you say it helps but I was wondering if you could explain that more thoroughly

Good vid bob

Hey Trav. I am trying the Trav Spec 2, and confused if these should be tight or loose. 20 years of using laces, so this is changing things in a big way. If it’s a preference, what do you prefer?

Do these work with a sliding toe bridge? If so do you have an install vid?

"Speeding up the wear on hour hips/knees/ankles." Me with a shot left hip at 22 y/o who has only been using toe hooks & ties for four years out of the 17 years I've played.

I ordered a set finally....if I like em I'm getting the #2s as well

How long are the travspec toe ties compared to normal toe ties? I want to say the regular ones are about 24 inches total maybe?

Hey Trav, I just want to confirm that when ordering the PRO LACES ARMOR EXTRA LONG TRAV4s, when it says 1 in your quantity at checkout, that's actually a set right? (so two ties for $50?). And those are the ties you like, right? Or should I do the TRAV2s???

hey trav, I got size ten skates.. will they be too big or too small or just right?

Speeding up knee and hip injury’s I’m 19 and my knees are all ready cracking at times should I get a pair yes I should it could fix the issue long term , and yes I would sell out for a pair

I have a set on my slr 2 pads and they are great.

Will Pro Laces work with Warrior Gt/Pro pads? They do not have the normal lace attachment block thing but instead have two holes that are the same distance apart as the normal block.

Trust me Travis, you can put ProLaces on a stock V9 toe bridge. And no, you don't need to punch new holes.

Prolaces are amazing!!!!!!!!

If you get custom V9s there is the option of having standard toe ties instead of their weird “w” bungee toe tie.

Just installed Trav 4 ProLace bungees on my new CCM FT goal skates - crossed over at toe , thru front hole & then alongside to rear hole in holder & then to boot top velcroed - found hips sore after game - did u only go to middle of boot holder & found too loose, so u installed thru rear cowling hole & then on to boot? to anyone - would the Trav 4 oiler longer laces be too loose if I only put thru middle of holders rather than the rear ? & thus the pads being too loose & rotating with no control?

I got 7,5 in skate size should they fit me or am I to small?

That was a fast review. I had to watch again, you talked fast. How do the Trav spec toe ties actually tie in? Is it just that they are tougher, and don't tear as easy? And a longer lace/bungee? Trying to figure out the differences.

Do you have a website? And would your toe ties work for Bauer pads?

Looking into getting the pro laces, but not sure which size to get. I’m 6’1” with a size 8ish true skates

all they do for me is keep the pad aligned to my ankle and foot. Other than that I feel little pull but I do wear Bauer’s and there ties are garbage. The Velcro broke off of the bungee 2 times.

What’s the exact length of the laces bud? I’m a big ass mofo 6’9 with skate size 15🤣 did my own couple month ago but the bungee cord broke after 6 skates 🤮 I’ll order the Trab specs but need 2 know the length 😓

Will these work on older pads (rbk 8k)

What time on the 12th? My league starts the 21st and I need a pair. I live in Niagara Falls, NY

Size 8EE goalie skates, would Trav Spec be too long? Size 10 US feet

I have major ankle pain from pressure from toe ties, anything I can do?

Any chance these will be released on a junior size?

How can I buy the pro laces

Love my bungee toe ties. I’ll never go back to laces. Stepping on laces with a skate blade is worse than the ice as far as slippery-ness. Never again.

If skate laces r so bad then why does demko, vassy, holtby, markstrom, fleury use them

“A horse walks into a bar. Several of the patrons quickly get up and leave, realizing the potential danger in the situation.”

Do you know how to take off the vaughn v9 bootstrap

Can you put them one Bauer supreme 3s

ProLace Armor Hybrid is the GOAT of toe ties, no mention you've tried those. Same one Carey Price and most Pro's use tbh.

How can i get them to Europe ?

Nice video.

Got new skates the other day., my gear was all Pro issue gear from.,.. 2006 (you called it). No cowel or heal hope for my straps . I'm fricking lost. It's obvious these skates want to interface with new pads and toe ties...

Can you get these toe ties in the UK

Hey, if im 5’11, skate size 8 are your bungees too big for me or could they fit!?

Toe ties a big debate I’m not a goalie so that don’t matter to me but others then that trav great vid like always Honestly for me to not like a vid you would have to severely mess up See you in the next one

Why so many pro goalies use regular skate lace if the pro laces are better?

Do prolaces ship world wide?

Think so, as long as they are flexible.

We all know the answer to this one, and if you don’t, why don’t you subscribe to know more right trav. I mean he mentions it every video

Yes

Hell ya.

I'm too cheap ill just use elastic bands (spoiler it didn't work obviously)

U need a reseller i europe (sweden/finland)

Gotta rename the vid « Traspec pro laces: why you should buy them »

Not really. Modern pads rotate back on their own anyways. You should know this, you get new gear like every 6 months.

Travsucks ... Promocode... If only I were a goalie or lived where I could play.
