I think that brand of shoes is at least somewhat designed for the elderly to use. I didn’t know they had ‘no-tie’ shoes but the pair of ordinary Sketcher’s sneakers I have (w/laces), which are great, have this fabric loop thing behind the heels that I think is supposed to help people who might struggle to get them on their feet. You can put a finger in the loop and haul them on if you need/want to.
