Important Considerations:
-
Lacing Style: How you lace your shoes affects the length needed. Criss-cross lacing uses more length than straight-bar lacing. Also, if you do elaborate lacing patterns, you will need longer laces.
-
Tying Style: How much lace do you want to have left over after tying? Some people prefer long loops, while others like short ones. Factor this into your choice.
-
Lace Diameter: Thicker laces may require a slightly longer length than thinner laces for the same number of eyelets.
-
“AGLETS”: The plastic or metal tips on the end of the shoelaces. They are called aglets.
How to Measure Your Existing Shoelaces (If You Have Them):
The easiest way to get the right length is to measure your existing shoelaces.
-
Remove the laces from your shoes.
-
Measure from tip to tip (including the aglets) with a measuring tape or ruler, in both inches and centimeters.
-
If your laces are too short or too long, adjust accordingly when choosing a new pair.
If You Don’t Have the Old Laces:
-
Count the eyelet pairs.
-
Refer to the chart below to get a general idea of the correct length range.
