Not all laces are created equal. The correct shoelace length depends on how many eyelets your shoes have, the shoe type (low‑top, mid‑top, high‑top) and how you tie them. As a general guide, low‑tops with fewer eyelets need shorter laces, while high‑tops require longer laces to wrap correctly. Beyond length, the tips of the laces, called aglets, matter too. Aglets (plastic or metal) prevent fraying and help the lace slide through eyelets more easily. At Pear Shoelace, we offer a range of lace lengths and aglet styles to match any sneaker, from sleek plastic‑tipped essentials to premium metal‑aglet laces for a cleaner, more durable finish.
