Criss Cross Lacing
This is probably the most common method of lacing normal shoes & boots. The laces simply criss-cross as they work their way up the shoe.
These wide, green laces make even traditional Criss Cross Lacing look great. Picture sent to me by Casey. More Lacing Photos	Lacing Technique: 1. The lace is run straight across the bottom (grey section) and emerges through both bottom eyelets. 2. The ends are crossed over each other, then they go under and out through the next set of eyelets up the shoe. 3. Repeat step (2) until both ends reach the top eyelets. Features: Traditional look Simple to lace Comfortable Corrugates shoe Comparative Length = 100% The shoelace length used by "Criss Cross Lacing" is the basic length against which all other lacing methods are compared. More details NOTE: Criss Cross is also a preferred lacing method for comfort, mainly because the crossovers of lace occur in the gap between the sides of the shoe and thus aren't pressed against the foot.
