Salomon XA Pro

I have some great Salomon shoes - xa pro - which I have loved a lot. But one of the (elastic) laces has broken. And it seems to be impossible to put a new one in / on - as they are somehow sewn to the shoe. Helpful running shop couldn't suggest anything. Has anyone come across this problem and solved it? Or like me is really annoyed about this built-in obselecense (excuse poor spelling).

Really cross that such a little thing means that the whole pair of shoes will have to be binned.

I've had a pair of Salomon boots for years now and they've the slippiest laces in the world - they just don't hold at all.
One day - when i get round to it - I'll replace the b*ggers.

Salomon - good shoes - cack laces.

Thanks for the lead on laces - I wonder if they are on sale in the UK - the link is for a website in Canada. Any tips on how to get through to Salomon in the UK - website very unhelpful and 0800 number just asks you to leave an address so they can send you a brochure!
