Abstract: A lace adjuster assembly (12) is adapted to selectively adjust a shoelace (11) of a shoe (10) of a user. The lace adjuster assembly (12) comprises a lace adjuster (14) and a feedback assembly (19). The lace adjuster (14) is adapted to selectively adjust the shoelace (11) of the shoe (10) of the user. The feedback assembly (19) is coupled to the lace adjuster (14). Additionally, the feedback assembly (19) is configured to perform one of (i) selectively measuring statistical data of the user during an athletic performance, and (ii) selectively capturing an image of the user during the athletic performance.

Abstract: A lace adjuster (14) includes an adjuster assembly (16); and a first cover (18) that is selectively attachable to the adjuster assembly (16). The first cover (18) is selectively movable between (i) an attached position, wherein the first cover (18) is attached to the adjuster assembly (16), and (ii) a detached position, wherein the first cover (18) is detached from the adjuster assembly (16). The first cover (18) can be moved between the attached position and the detached position without damaging the first cover (18) and the adjuster assembly (16). Additionally, the lace adjuster (14) can further include a second cover (18) that is alternatively, selectively attachable to the adjuster assembly (16).

Abstract: A lace adjuster (10) that selectively adjusts and secures a shoelace (770) of a shoe (772) includes an inner frame (12), an outer frame (14), a resilient member (16), and a bracket (18). The outer frame (14) receives at least a portion of the inner frame (12). The resilient member (16) is secured to the inner frame (12) and the outer frame (14), and allows the inner frame (12) and the outer frame (14) to move relative to each other between an unlocked configuration and a locked configuration. The bracket (18) is movable between a closed configuration and an open configuration. The bracket (18) is adapted to receive a portion of the shoelace (770) when the bracket (18) is in the open configuration, and the bracket (18) is adapted to retain a portion of the shoelace (770) when the bracket is in the closed configuration.

Abstract: A lace retention clip for use with a plurality of lace ends includes, in one embodiment, a housing and a bore extending into the housing. The housing further includes a lateral slot formed in the housing and disposed generally transverse relative to the bore. The housing also having a hollow formed in the housing and intersecting the lateral slot and the bore of the plunger. A plunger having a transverse bore is arranged so that the plunger is shiftably mounted within the bore and is moveable between a first position, wherein the bore of the plunger is aligned with the hollow, and a second position wherein the bore is offset from the hollow. The lace retention clip being arranged to frictionally retain a lace within the clip when the plunger is in the second position.
