Step 2
Measure the original lace from tip to tip. If it is missing, count the matching eyelet pairs on one shoe and use the length guide.
Step 3
Traditional laces provide a classic tied finish. Elastic no-tie options can make shoes quicker and easier to put on.

Flat laces suit many sneakers, canvas shoes and school shoes. Round laces work well with smaller eyelets and dress-style shoes, while oval laces are commonly used in sports shoes and trainers.
Elastic and no-tie shoelaces can be useful for children who find traditional bows difficult or want shoes that are quicker to put on. Adjust them so the shoes feel secure without being uncomfortably tight.
Black, white, grey, navy and brown are practical choices for school and everyday shoes. Bright colours such as red, blue, green, yellow, pink and purple can add personality to casual sneakers.
The laces should tighten evenly and leave enough length for a comfortable bow. If the bow is difficult to tie, the laces may be too short. Oversized loops or ends that hang too low can indicate that the laces are too long.
Remove the laces from the shoes and wash them gently by hand using mild soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow them to air dry. Avoid harsh bleach and high heat, which may affect the fibres, colours or aglets.
