FAQs
What makes these laces waterproof?
The laces are constructed from 100% polyamide, a material that is inherently water-resistant and does not absorb water.

They are ideal for refreshing and maintaining boots and shoes, especially in changeable or wet weather conditions, and are suitable for footwear with around 5 eyelets.
How long are the Regatta Replacement Laces?
The laces measure 120cm in length.
Can I use these laces on any type of shoe?
These laces are best suited for boots and shoes with approximately 5 eyelets. They are a general replacement lace.
How should I clean these laces?
You should hand wash them with mild soap and cold water, then air dry. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.
What color are the laces?
These specific replacement laces are black.
Are these laces suitable for heavy-duty activities like extreme hiking?
While durable and waterproof, they are designed as general replacement laces. For extreme conditions, specialized laces might be considered, but these offer good performance for typical outdoor use.
Troubleshooting
Laces are too long or too short
The 120cm length is best suited for footwear with approximately 5 eyelets. If your footwear has significantly more or fewer eyelets, consider purchasing a different length lace. For minor discrepancies, adjust your lacing pattern.
Waterproofing seems reduced after washing
Ensure you are hand washing with mild soap and cold water, and air drying. Avoid machine washing, high heat, or harsh detergents which can damage the material's waterproof treatment.
Laces fraying prematurely
While durable, excessive abrasion can cause fraying. Ensure your footwear's eyelets are smooth. If fraying persists, it may indicate a need for replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To set up your Regatta Replacement Laces, simply thread them through the eyelets of your shoes or boots in your preferred lacing pattern. Ensure the length is appropriate for the number of eyelets on your footwear; the 120cm length is recommended for shoes or boots with approximately 5 eyelets.
Compatibility: These laces are designed to be compatible with most standard boots and shoes that require laces of approximately 120cm in length and feature around 5 eyelets. They are a universal replacement for most common footwear types.
Care: To care for your waterproof laces, hand wash them with mild soap and cold water. Rinse thoroughly and allow them to air dry completely. Avoid using harsh detergents, bleach, or machine washing, as these can compromise the waterproof properties and material integrity. Store them in a dry place when not in use.
