What could be more frustrating? You’ve broken your shoelaces and when you got to the store you have no idea what to buy! This lace length guide will show you 3 ways to pick the right size shoelace or bootlace:
The best way to find the length of shoelace you need is to look at your currentlacesor your broken laces you want to replace.
Removethe lace from your footwear and measure it from tip to tip. This is the length for thereplacement lace – keeping in mind to add or subtract if your old laces are too long ortoo short.
It’s important to note that different lacing styles need more or less length, so if you use this method be sure to lace up your boots or shoes the same way you had them before.
How many eyelets or holes are on your shoes? Count how many total holes you have and divide by two – or count how many holes are down one side. This is the number of eyelet pairs are on your shoes. The boot in the above example has 9 eyelet pairs.
