Shoe Shop Lacing
(Lug version)
|
|
A lug version of
Shoe Shop Lacing. Whilst this does look interesting, it shifts the sides of the shoe out of alignment, though
this may be useful to correct an otherwise ill-fitting shoe.

Lacing Technique:
1. The lace runs straight across the bottom (grey section) and up through both bottom lugs.
2. The left (blue) end of the lace is fed diagonally all the way to the top of the shoe and passes up through the
top right lug.
3. The right (yellow) lace end runs diagonally across and up the shoe to the next higher lug on the left side,
passing up through that lug.
4. The same (yellow) end runs across to the adjacent lug on the right side, passing up through that lug.
5. Repeat steps (3) and (4) until the end reaches the top of the shoe.
