Round Waxed Shoelaces – Light Blue 100 cm (Pair)

Description

Round Waxed Shoelaces – Light Blue 100 cm – a pop of colour with a water-repellent wax finish, sold ready to lace as a pair.

These are round waxed shoelaces from our own Shoespecialist range. The cotton cord is given a smooth wax coating that beads off light rain, helps the laces resist dirt and keeps a knot sitting tight all day. The soft blue works beautifully on white trainers and pale canvas shoes when you want a fresh, summery finish. At 100 cm they cover around 4 to 6 pairs of eyelets, ideal for trainers and mid-height boots. I personally love a waxed lace when you want your shoes to look that little bit more finished – the subtle sheen lifts the whole shoe, and because they come as a matched pair you can relace both shoes in minutes.

Why choose these light blue waxed shoelaces?

• Water-repellent wax finish. The wax coating helps shrug off light showers and splashes, and stops the cord soaking up grime, so the laces keep looking fresh for far longer than an untreated lace.
• Round profile that holds. The rounded cord threads smoothly through eyelets and grips against itself, so your bow stays put through the day instead of quietly working loose.
• A colour that stands out. Light Blue is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to refresh a tired pair of shoes or boots – a new set of laces can make an old pair feel new again.
• Subtle, smart sheen. The wax gives a gentle satin finish that looks a step up from a plain cotton lace, whether the shoes are casual or a little more formal.
• Sold as a full pair. You get two laces in the pack – everything you need to relace both shoes straight away, with no odd single left over.
• From our own range. These are part of the Shoespecialist wax collection, quality-checked and available across a run of colours and lengths so you can match or contrast exactly as you like.

How to lace your shoes

1. Take out your old laces and keep them next to you as a length guide.
2. Count your eyelets – 100 cm suits around 4 to 6 pairs of eyelets, ideal for trainers and mid-height boots.
3. Thread the new lace evenly from the bottom, keeping both ends level as you go.
4. Work up to the top, even out the tension so the shoe closes comfortably, and tie your usual knot.
5. Repeat on the second shoe and you are ready to go.

Frequently asked questions

What length do I need? Count the pairs of eyelets on your shoe. This 100 cm lace is cut for around 4 to 6 pairs of eyelets, ideal for trainers and mid-height boots. If you are between sizes, size up – a little extra length is far easier to manage than a lace that pulls up short.

Are these long enough for boots? At 100 cm they suit trainers and mid-height boots with four to six pairs of eyelets very comfortably.

Will there be lace left over? If your shoes have fewer eyelets you may have a little spare {D} simply tie a slightly larger bow or double-knot to take it up.

Will the wax rub off? A waxed lace naturally softens a touch with wear, which is completely normal and part of the look. The colour and the cord underneath stay put, so they carry on doing their job for a long time.
