Segmented Lacing (Lug version)
A lug version of Segmented Lacing. This variation divides the lacing into two or more "segments", each of which can be laced up as tightly or loosely as necessary to achieve a comfortable yet secure fit for "difficult" shoes or feet.
	Lacing Technique: 1. Instead of a single long lace in each shoe, start out with two laces, each around half the length of the original shoelace. 2. The first lace is run straight across the bottom (grey section) and is laced with Lug Criss Cross Lacing to about the middle of the shoe. 3. Starting from the next higher set of lugs, the second lace is similarly laced to the top of the shoe. 4. Each "segment" is then tightened to suit your preference and knotted. For example, tighten the bottom segment more if you have narrow feet, less if you have wide feet. Features: Customizable Many uses Messy look Comparative Length (each lace) = 49% Laced area uses less (about −51%) Shorter laces needed (about −22%) Lengthens lace ends (about +37%) More details
NOTE: This page shows two segments; you may prefer three or more segments, and may also choose to use another lacing instead of "Lug Criss Cross Lacing" as shown.
