Faint sections are underneath

Lacing Technique (for 6 pairs of eyelets):
1. The lace is run straight across the bottom (grey section) and the ends emerge through both bottom eyelets.
2. The ends are crossed over each other, then fed in through the second higher set of eyelets up the shoe (skip
past one set of eyelets).
3. The left (yellow) end is run straight down on the inside and emerges through the next eyelet down the shoe,
then continues straight across on the outside and is fed in through the eyelet on the opposite side.
4. Both ends are run straight up the inside, each skipping past one eyelet before emerging through the second
higher eyelet up the shoe.
5. The higher (blue) end is run straight across on the outside and is fed in through the eyelet on the opposite
side, then continues straight down on the inside and emerges through the next eyelet down the shoe.
6. The ends are crossed over each other, then fed in through the sixth set of eyelets (skip past one set of
eyelets).
NOTE:
For shoes with seven eyelet pairs (such as in the picture at left), simply run both ends straight up the inside to
emerge through the top eyelets.
