Classic Shoelaces: The Standard for Every Shoe

Reliability never goes out of style. Our Classic Shoelace collection features the three essential profiles that define modern footwear: Flat, Round, and Oval. Engineered for longevity and a secure knot, these traditional tie-on laces are the perfect replacement for worn-out factory strings or a simple way to refresh the look of your favorite pair. Whether you're lacing up high-top sneakers, sleek Oxfords, or rugged hikers, find the original specs and premium materials your shoes deserve.

What is the most common shoelace type for sneakers?

Flat shoelaces are the industry standard for sneakers like Vans, Converse, and Air Force 1s. They are preferred because they sit flush against the shoe's tongue, providing a clean aesthetic and reducing pressure points across the top of the foot.

Why should I choose round laces over flat ones?

Round laces are generally more durable and are designed for shoes with smaller, reinforced eyelets. They are the traditional choice for dress shoes (thin round) and work boots (thick round) because their shape allows them to glide easily through eyelets while maintaining high break-strength.

What makes oval laces different from round laces?

Oval laces are a hybrid design. They have the strength of a round lace but the "stay-tied" properties of a flat lace. The slightly flattened edges create friction within the knot, making them the best classic lace for running and high-intensity sports where knots frequently come loose.

How do I measure the length for my classic replacement laces?
The most accurate method is to remove your current lace and measure it tip-to-tip. If that isn't possible, a general rule is 115cm for 5-6 eyelets and 140cm for 7 eyelets. Always size up if you prefer a larger bow or use specialized lacing techniques.
