Where did you get your laces?
Where did you get your laces?
I always put a knot in mineWhen I was in CA I would drop in to my local Redwing store and just ask for a pair. They always handed them over at no charge. I think it is just a great boot lace. If they are a little long you can cut it to the right length and hit the end with a flame to seal it up so it will not unravel.
Sweet!MV of these TSM 2022 Cigar Tankers. Dark? Who cares. Been hunting this make for years after I moved a pair back when I didn’t understand Alden sizing. Thrilled to have a second chance………

Always uncertain on lacing. Flat looks a little better but hard to beat the convenience of round, especially when paired with hooks.
Happy Monday gang. Have a great week!
EDIT - sometimes it’s all about the lighting. I’m sure the bus ride in didn’t lighten these up but when viewed in really ugly elevator lighting, they don’t look quite as dark……

I think round laces just look better, regardless of eyelets or speed hooks. Nothing like getting a pair you've been on the hunt for and enjoying them!

Sharing a few of my latest pick-ups. First up is a pair of Color 8 Medallion Cap Toe Quarter Brogue boots from Alden of DC on Grant last with double leather soles. The 360 flat welt and edge color is dark brown/black. Hard to tell in the first few photos, but the uppers have beautiful Burgundy tones that express themselves in different angles.
