White Flat Shoelaces 120 cm – Wide Barth Laces

Description

White Flat Shoelaces 120 cm – Wide Barth Laces – wide flat laces that keep trainers looking fresh

Need a fresh pair of white flat shoelaces? These white wide flat laces from Barth are flat and wide (roughly 8–10 mm across), measure 120 cm and come packed as a pair. I sell an awful lot of laces, and the ones I keep coming back to are Barth – they are the ones I would happily put in my own shoes.

They are ideal for trainers, casual shoes and chunky trainers with wider eyelets. Swapping worn or broken laces is the quickest, cheapest way to make a favourite pair of shoes feel new again, and getting the right length and shape matters just as much as the colour.

White is crisp and clean, and there is nothing quicker for freshening up a tired pair of trainers. It gives a classic sports look and makes the whole shoe feel newer than it is.

Why choose these white wide flat shoelaces?

• Genuine Barth quality: tightly braided German-made laces that stay strong, hold a knot and resist fraying.
• The right shape: flat and wide (roughly 8–10 mm across), so they sit correctly in the eyelets of trainers, casual shoes and chunky trainers with wider eyelets.
• Colour-matched: a true white tone that is easy to pair with the rest of your footwear.
• Sold as a pair: you receive two laces, ready to fit straight away – no guessing whether you have ordered enough.
• Great value: a new pair of laces costs a fraction of new shoes and takes minutes to fit.
• Free UK delivery from £50: add these to your care order and post them out together, with same-day dispatch when you order before 5pm.

How to choose and fit your laces

Getting the length right is the bit most people get wrong, so here is how I talk customers through it in the shop.

1. Count your eyelets. Count the pairs of holes on one shoe. As a rough guide, 120 cm suits shoes with around 7–8 pairs of eyelets.
2. Remove the old laces. Unthread the worn pair and keep one as a length reference if you are unsure.
3. Thread from the bottom. Start at the eyelets nearest the toe and work up, keeping both ends even as you go.
4. Even them up. Pull the laces so the two ends are the same length before you tie, so nothing trails.
5. Tie and check. Tie as normal; if the ends are very long, size down next time, and if the bow feels tight, size up.

Every pair of Barth laces is made in Höslwang in Bavaria, where the family firm has been producing shoelaces for four generations. They spin their own yarn and braid it tightly, and honestly you can feel the difference in your hands: these laces are strong, they hold a knot and they do not fray after a few weeks like cheaper laces tend to.

Frequently asked questions

What length of white flat shoelaces do I need?

Count the pairs of eyelets on your shoe. This 120 cm pair suits shoes with about 7–8 pairs of eyelets. If you are between sizes, it is usually safer to go slightly longer.

What is the difference between wide and narrow flat laces?

Wide flat laces fill larger trainer eyelets and give that classic sports look; narrow flat laces suit smaller eyelets and slimmer, smarter shoes. This pair is the wide flat option.

How many laces come in a pack?

You receive a pair, which is two laces – enough for one pair of shoes. If you like to keep a spare set in the cupboard, it is well worth ordering two.
