they replace your velcro strap on your boot, they're high performance elastic to help prevent shin bang

Asides from the hilarious bantering above me, they actually do work. They let the tongue of your boot flex forward, but keep it all tight. I had some Sportchek brand ones, and they were alright. I just put them over my power strap on my foils, and they worked. Sadly, i lost one, so I lit the other one on fire in my toolshed for fun. They burn rather well.

for future reference if you want to maintain some kind of cred for your thread never begin it with "my mom said i could"

Got them, they don't work. They made my shinbang like 1000 times worse and gave me calf cramps

22 replies and not one straight answer to the kid's question? Fuck you guys.

Yes, take them to a good shop and they'll fit them up for you.
