Lots of feet. I need to go pick up a set of shoes for myself later, and waiting for Rory's shoes to arrive.

It really depends on how it's done. All of my feet have lace-ups..I simply make sure not to glue the laces with foam. There's a pocket where the foam doesn't even touch teh laces, and teh flap of fur that goes of my ankels snaps into place with clasps. I tie my shoes on, then clasp the fur in place. I'm asuming Chilly does a similar method, or glues the tongue of the shoe in place with the laces removed. There's many ways to go about doing it.
Actually, they're safer for me to wear. I don't have a very strong left ankle, and it helps reinforce it. I have a pair of feet that I made that do not have laces, and I feel like my foot wants to slide out.
The feet I wear on weekends have velcro straps. Strapping your foot in is safer than without that in there. I'm not sure where you had heard about that from.
As for tying them, the back of the ankle zips down, you can push the material forward, and tie up the shoe. The material zips back up, and the seam is hidden either via a legging (partial), leg (full suit), or pants.

Though a cobbler. There's also a shoe supply warehouse a hour north of me up in Salisbury. You need a business tax ID to pick up materials from them. I usually just browse and get material from the cobbler I go through since he orders material in bulk.
I recommend poking Google, look up shoe repair and your zip code, and try to find someone that speaks English. For feet, diamond pattern or similar texture is fine. Ribbed is not so good for feet. There's various "irons," which is the thickness of the crepe. 6 iron = 1/8" thickness, and 9 iron = 3/16" thickness for example.
I used "luna" (kinna have a bubbly texture) on my panda, and there's smooth and wavy ones as well. Crepe comes in brown, black, red, and white. Some specific ones only come in certain colors. Make sure whatever type you pick up can be flexible, but not scratch easily.
