I love sneakers but hate laces, and want to get some nice designer white ones that are easy on/off. So far I’ve found these, from the top down - Axel Arigato, Isabel Marant, Jil Sander, Eytys. Anyone have experience with these brands or styles to share? Or other suggestions? They must be comfortable. I haven’t looked at luxury designers because I’d prefer to keep the price under 4-figures (!), but for the right pair….

I don't have these but in my experience, Prada sneakers are usually comfy (except for their adidas Superstar collab, but that's Superstar's fault because they're known to be painful)
Also these are in 3 figures (USD/EUR).

I haven’t tried any listed but I don’t lace mine. The first time I put them on I tie them in an “untied” way so I can slip them on/off. I either tie them loose enough or I lave them so loose that the ends are too short to tie

What do you do with the extra lace dangling. I’ve tried the method of tucking them into the shoe but they always end up falling out. I’ve also used elastic laces on my Adidas that work great and will do this again for any laced versions I find. But also like the sleek look of the laceless versions.
 
Just to follow-up on my hunt...I realized trying to stay away from laces was limiting my options too much. I really just wanted clean, classic simple white leather sneakers, and ended up getting some Everlane ones and added elastic laces so they can be slip-on yet still feel secure. Quite pleased with this solution and saved a ton of $$ for other things :graucho:
