Many years ago I had a pair of Sidi shoes with laces and cleats. Used them with rat-trap pedals, toe clips and straps, just so you understand what era that was.

On more than one occasion I had the laces loosen and then get caught around the pedal or in the chainring while coming to a stop. Toe clips and straps were bad enough trying to undo in a hurry, but with the laces stuck, it was pretty much the slow-mo fall to the side. I got to the point of using tape over the laces to prevent it.

When clipless came out, I had a pair of shoes (don't remember the brand) with Velcro straps. They worked well, but eventually the velcro wore out.

Latest shoes are Shimano road shoes with BOA. BOA is what I'll be using from now on. At first I was leery that the little line that tightens would break, but it's amazingly strong.
