Trainer Shoe Laces Guide

< Back to Laces

Lace Sizing Guide: get started

We have put together a quick guide to help you find the right laces for your trainers. It can be a confusing exercise, and eyelets arent the only factor coming into play. You need to also take into consideration the size of the sneaker, and the style as well. For example, on Yeezy Trainers, typically a smaller length is required, where as Air Jordan Retro High’s demand a much longer lace.


Trainer Shoe Size Chart

The chart below is a guide, we always recommend measuring your stock laces that you plan to swap out. This way you can be sure you have the correct size selected.

If you do order the wrong size, don’t worry about it. We will get them swapped out anyway, just email us
