Complete Sports Laces Size Chart, Length Guide & Eyelet Conversion
Finding the right size is the #1 challenge for buyers. The "Golden Rule" is: Measure your old laces tip-to-tip. If that isn't possible, use the industry-standard "Eyelet Method." Count the eyelet pairs on ONE side of the shoe. The chart below synthesises data from major shoe brands to give you the most accurate length recommendations.

How to Lace Sports Laces Properly: Best Techniques & Step-by-Step Patterns
You can customise your look with lacing. For a modern, clean aesthetic on sneakers, use Sports Laces with "Over-Under" lacing, which reduces friction and extends lace life. If you experience heel slippage, rely on the "Heel Lock" (or Runner's Loop). This technique utilises the extra top eyelet to lock the ankle in place.

FAQs About Elastic Shoelaces
Question: Can I wash my Sports Laces?
Yes, most Sports Laces can be cleaned. Hand washing with mild soap is recommended to protect the tips. Avoid machine washing unless you use a mesh bag to prevent tangling.
Question: Do Sports Laces stretch?
Stretch depends on the material. Performance Sports Laces usually have low stretch to ensure a secure fit. Natural fibres may stretch slightly during break-in, while elastic versions are designed to flex.
Question: Are Sports Laces strong?
High-quality Sports Laces are designed for tensile strength. Premium versions often feature reinforced cores or high-density weaves that resist snapping far better than budget generic laces.
Question: Do Sports Laces stay tied?
Knot security depends on the material's friction. Most Sports Laces have a texture designed to hold a knot. If you find them slipping, using a double knot will secure them effectively.
Question: Round vs. Flat Sports Laces: Which is best?
Cool Laces are designed to be both stylish and functional. They’re strong, long-lasting, and suitable for daily wear, sports, or any activity where performance matters.
