The North Face has launched the Boa trail running shoe that has an innovative laceless system. As runners know, fiddling with laces on a long run can be a real drag. Thin steel cables connect to a tension dial on the back of the shoe. In addition, the system micro adjusts with foot movement to eliminate pressure points. The laceless Boa shoes retail for $130.

I should pick up a pair of these. Very interesting to think that I may never have to concern myself with untied laces while running.
Woo!
