Description
Dark Blue Round Shoelaces 120 cm – Extra Thick Barth Laces: heavy-duty round laces built for boots that take a beating.
When boot laces give up, you want a replacement that won’t. These extra thick round dark blue shoelaces are made by Barth in Germany, a firm many people consider the best in the business. The chunky round cord fills bigger eyelets and hooks properly, so it stays laced through long days on your feet. They’re a great fit for work boots, walking boots and rugged lace-up boots, and at 120 cm this pair gives you plenty to work with over multiple eyelets and hooks. Available in a range of lengths, they suit everything from ankle boots to tall lace-up work boots.
Good boots deserve laces that keep up with them. A strong, even pair means no more mid-shift re-lacing, and no more being caught out by a snapped lace when you are miles from home. For the sake of a few pounds, it is well worth keeping a spare pair to hand.
Why choose these extra thick round laces?
- Built for boots: the thick round cord grips hooks and larger eyelets and won’t rattle loose.
- German Barth toughness: densely spun yarn made to handle work, walking and rough wear.
- A smart dark blue: a deep, hard-wearing colour that suits leather and nubuck boots alike.
- Strong aglets: firm tips push through tight eyelets without splaying.
- Long-lasting value: one sturdy pair typically outlives several cheaper sets, so you replace them far less often.
- Sold as a matching pair: two identical laces, ready to fit.
How to choose and fit the right length
- Count the eyelets and hooks on one boot. A 120 cm lace typically suits boots with about 6-7 pairs of eyelets.
- Lay your old laces alongside the new pair to double-check before threading.
- Lace firmly from the bottom, working evenly up through eyelets and around any hooks.
- Level both ends and tie off securely – a double knot works well on tall boots.

About Barth laces
Barth has been making laces in Germany for generations, and in the shoe trade the name is simply shorthand for quality. Every lace is woven from strong, colour-fast yarn and finished with proper aglets, which is why a single Barth pair so often outlasts several sets of supermarket laces. I stock them because, put plainly, they are the laces I would happily put in my own shoes.
Caring for your laces
These laces ask very little of you. Brush or wipe away everyday dust, and if they need more, hand-wash gently in lukewarm water and let them air-dry rather than tumbling them. If an aglet ever begins to splay, a small dab of clear glue re-tips it in seconds. Looked after simply, Barth laces hold their colour and strength for a very long time, which is exactly why so many customers come back for another pair.

Thea Wisniewski –
Fine, but a bit cheaper in the shop.. However, laces in this length weren’t in stock

Jeroen Veerman –
Quality is good! The definition of extra thick could be stated more clearly (diameter of the lace, for example).
