Shoelace EightyEight

Don't like tying and untying your sneakers? Well print one of these! I print mine in black to go with my all-black sneakers. You can print in any color; blend or stand out! This was designed to work with the 3-mm diameter athletic type round laces. I like to offset the laces so that only one end is cut. That way one end retains its factory aglet. To use: Feed one end of the lace through the inner hole, then back through the neighboring outer hole. Leave a little extra lace for final adjustment. Lace the shoes the way you normally would. Feed the remaining lace out through the inner hole, then back through the outer hole. Don't pull the lace tight just yet as you will need to adjust the lace tightness to allow the shoe to be put on and fit snugly enough, but still be able to be removed. Once you are comfortable with the fit, pull the ends of the lace tight to the Shoelace EightyEight Trim off the extra lace and us a lighter to seal the cut end of the lace.
