Love Laces, Love Knots

It's easy to forget about laces, but they can MAKE or BREAK the overall look of your prized sneaks.

This page provides you with a few ideas on various ways to lace em up....enjoy!

The Lattice

  1. The lace goes straight across the bottom. Feed them up through the bottom eyelets.
  2. Cross over the ends and feed down into the 4th set of eyelets.
  3. Both ends now run up and emerge from the 5th set of eyelets.
  4. Cross over the ends and feed down into the 2nd set of eyelets.
  5. Both ends should now run up and emerge from the 3rd set of eyelets.
  6. Cross over the ends and feed under and emerge from the top set of eyelets.

The Display

  1. The lace is run straight across the bottom and is fed down into the bottom eyelets.
  2. Cross over the ends and insert into the next set of eyelets.
  3. This is repeated until you reach the top set of eyelets.

The Zip-Up

  1. Run the lace across the bottom and fed up through the eyelets.
  2. The ends are looped back under the lace where it feeds under the side of the shoe.
  3. The ends are then crossed over each other, then they go under and out through the next set of eyelets.
  4. Then repeat steps 2 & 3 until you reach the top set of eyelets.

The Chainsaw

  1. Run the lace straight across the bottom and feed the ends up into the eyelets.
  2. The right hand lace end should run straight up to the 2nd eyelet, and across.
  3. The other end runs diagonally underneath skipping the 2nd set of eyelets and emerges from the 3rd set. They run across the shoe and into the opposite eyelet.
  4. Continue running each lace diagonally across, and up 2 eyelets

The Chessboard

  1. Start with 2 pairs of different coloured laces with the same approx dimensions.
  2. Pick a colour and lace across using the Chainsaw. (above)
  3. With the other colour start at the bottom of the shoe and weave the lace in and out of the other lace until you reach the top.
  4. Fold around the top and head back down to the bottom weaving in and out.
  5. Continue across the shoe until our out of lace.
  6. Finally, simply tuck in the loose ends.

This is just the start, so keep watching for more ideas.
