Thank you for your interest in the product. I purchased this online a few months ago. *The laces have been cut and tied so they don't need to be tied. I was able to wear them without any problems, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. There is some fading, discoloration, loss of shape, and wrinkles from wear. This is a used item, so please check the images and understand before purchasing. There is no original box. It will be shipped in simple packaging. Please take advantage of combined purchases. Please be sure to check my profile. #newbalance #newbalance
