Brown Waxed Round Shoelaces 90 cm – classic round waxed laces in mid-brown
These brown waxed shoelaces from Barth are made for smart shoes and boots. The round, waxed cord threads smoothly, holds a firm knot and gives brogues and derbies a refined, classic finish in a versatile mid-brown.
At 90 cm they suit footwear with around 5 to 6 pairs of eyelets. Each order is a pair, ready to fit.
Brown is the lace I reach for most with tan and chestnut leathers – it just works. These are packed and sent straight from our own shelves.
Why choose Brown Waxed Round Shoelaces 90 cm?
- Waxed for durability – the coating repels moisture and grime and helps the lace keep its shape.
- Genuine Barth quality from Germany, tightly woven so the cord resists fraying.
- Versatile mid-brown that pairs with tan, chestnut and darker brown leathers.
- Firm, tidy knot thanks to the light wax finish – no mid-day re-tying.
- Round profile that suits smart and smart-casual footwear alike.
- 90 cm length, ideal for shoes with around 5 to 6 pairs of eyelets.
How to fit your laces
Re-lacing takes a couple of minutes and instantly smartens a pair of shoes. Here is how I do it:
- Remove the old laces and wipe around the eyelets.
- Even up both ends of the new lace.
- Thread from the bottom up, keeping the crossings neat and symmetrical.
- Snug each row as you climb so the waxed cord sits in a clean line.
- Tie your usual bow – the wax grips and keeps it fastened.

About Barth laces
Barth is a German maker known for quality laces. Their waxed cords are densely woven and finished with a fine wax coat, giving you a lace that looks smart and stands up to daily wear – which is exactly why we stock them.
Looking after them
Looking after waxed laces is simple. Give them an occasional wipe with a soft, dry cloth to keep the surface clean and the sheen fresh, and try not to soak them, since too much water can soften the wax. Keep them flat and out of strong heat when not in use. Treated kindly, this brown waxed cord will hold its colour and its crisp knot season after season.
A tip from me
Give waxed laces an occasional wipe with a soft cloth to keep the sheen fresh. If you rotate between shoes, a spare pair in brown is always handy.
Frequently asked questions
Are waxed laces better than plain ones?
For smart shoes, yes – the wax adds a subtle sheen, sheds light moisture and helps the knot hold. They are a small detail that makes a well-kept pair look even better.
What length do I need for 90 cm?
A 90 cm lace suits footwear with about 5 to 6 pairs of eyelets. Count yours and size up if you are between lengths.
Can I use these on boots?
Yes, provided your boots have around 5 to 6 pairs of eyelets. For taller boots with more eyelets, choose a longer length.
