Do these exist- Trainers with Velcro not laces?

I have dyspraxia and despite many years of effort/criticism/cajoling I remain a bit rubbish at doing up shoe laces.

This is generally not a big issue for me: I tend to wear heels/slip on shoes or boots, but now I'm on mat leave with a baby that will only nap if walked several miles a day. I'd love some casual trainers I can wear with jeans but that have Velcro closings. I bought gazelles and five minutes out of the house I stand on them and undo them.

All my googling is getting me gorgeous Velcro gazelles, veja, new balance- for children.

Does anyone know where I can get a pair of velcro fastening trainers for an adult woman (size 5 1/2)?! Am I the only person who wants this? It would genuinely make my life so much better.

Definitely get hickies. There are different ways of setting them up to vary width so get some help from a friend if copying the pics is difficult
