Loop Back Lacing
(Lug version)
A lug version of Loop Back Lacing. Each side loops back on itself down the middle, rather like when two springs become intertwined. However, those loop-backs tend to shift off-centre.
Lug Loop Back Lacing diagram Lacing Technique:
1. The lace runs straight across the bottom (grey section) and up through both bottom lugs.

2. The left (blue) end is fed all the way straight up through each lug on the left side of the shoe, with a little slack left in between each lug and the next highest lug.

3. The right (yellow) lace runs up the right side of the shoe, at each lug looping through the left (blue) lace in the middle of the shoe before feeding into the next higher lug.

Using This Lacing:
Loop Back lacing looks best on shoes with thick, round laces, especially light coloured laces on dark coloured shoes. These accentuate the fact that the laces loop back on themselves rather than crossing over each other.
For more information and photos, see the eyelet version of Loop Back Lacing.
