Product Information
Full details
These 210cm Grafters Round Boot Laces in brown are designed for individuals needing durable and reliable laces for boots with 10-14 eyelets.

FAQs
What type of boots are these laces best for?
These 210cm laces are ideal for boots with 10-14 eyelets, such as hiking boots, work boots, and sturdy casual boots.
How many laces are in a pack?
Each pack contains 10 round boot laces.
What material are the laces made from?
The laces are made from a durable textile material.
Can I use these laces on boots with fewer than 10 eyelets?
Yes, you can use them on boots with fewer eyelets, but you will have longer ends to tie. They are specifically designed to accommodate boots with 10-14 eyelets.
How should I clean these boot laces?
Hand wash the laces with mild soap and cool water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing your boots.
Are these laces waterproof?
While the textile material offers some resistance, they are not fully waterproof. For highly water-resistant needs, synthetic laces might be a better option.
What is the main advantage of the round profile?
The round profile offers a classic aesthetic and provides good grip within eyelets, helping to prevent laces from loosening easily.
Troubleshooting
Laces fraying quickly
Ensure you are not overtightening the laces, which can stress the fibers. Check for sharp edges on boot eyelets that might be causing abrasion and consider smoothing them. Replace frayed laces to prevent them from breaking.
Laces are too short for the eyelets
This product is designed for boots with 10-14 eyelets. If your boots have significantly more eyelets, you may need a longer lace length. Consider purchasing a longer variant if available.
Laces come undone easily
Try using a different knot, such as a surgeon's knot (double knotting the initial crossover) or a reef knot. Ensure the laces are dry, as wet laces can sometimes be more prone to slipping.
