Description
White Flat Narrow Shoelaces (75 cm) – a shorter length that keeps four and five-eyelet shoes looking sharp
The shorter cousin in our white flat narrow range, this 75 cm lace is the one I hand to customers with lower-cut trainers, plimsolls and smart shoes that have four or five pairs of eyelets. Too long a lace on a shorter shoe leaves you with untidy loops; get the length right and everything sits clean and flat. These are a true bright white from Barth, and as always they come as a pair.
Why choose these white flat narrow shoelaces?
- Just the right length for four to five-eyelet shoes – no excess lace to double-knot or hide away.
- Genuinely bright white with colour-fast dye, so they lift plimsolls and pale trainers without greying off.
- Flat and narrow profile that threads through small eyelets easily and lies neatly across the shoe.
- German-woven by Barth for strength that outlasts the usual high-street replacement laces several times over.
- Firm, bonded tips that slide through eyelets first time, every time.
How to use them
- Take out the old laces and wipe the eyelets clean.
- Feed each end through the two lowest eyelets, keeping both sides even.
- Lace upward in a criss-cross or straight-bar pattern to taste.
- Level the ends and tie – 75 cm gives a tidy bow on a shorter shoe.

A word on Barth quality
Every lace I sell in this range is made by Barth in Bavaria, Germany – a family firm that has been braiding shoelaces for four generations. That kind of experience shows. The weave is dense and even, the colour is properly set so it will not bleed onto your shoes, and the tips (the aglets) are bonded so they will not fray after a fortnight. Barth make laces for everything from the finest dress shoes to serious walking boots, and they braid to the same standard whichever end of the range you buy from. I stock them because, quite simply, I have not found a lace that lasts longer – and when a customer tells me a set has outlived the shoes, I am not the least bit surprised.
Looking after them
These laces are easy to keep looking their best. A gentle hand-wash in lukewarm water is all they need if they pick up grime, and they dry quickly laid flat. Because the colour is properly set, a wash will not leave you with a faded, tired-looking lace the way cheaper ones do.
Frequently asked questions
Is 75 cm long enough for my trainers?
If your trainers have four or five pairs of eyelets, 75 cm is spot on. With six or more, step up to our 90 cm white flat laces instead.
Do white laces stay white?
These hold their colour far better than cheap laces because the white is properly set. A gentle hand-wash keeps them looking crisp.
