Twistie Lacing
(Lug version)
|
|
A lug version of
Twistie Lacing. Like a combination of
Loop Back and
Knotted Lacing, the laces are twisted together with a vertical overhand knot at each crossover before
continuing to the other side.

Lacing Technique:
1. The lace runs straight across the bottom (grey section) and up through both bottom lugs.
2. The ends are twisted together with one complete twist in the middle of the shoe.
3. The ends then continue across to the opposite sides, where they run up through the next set of lugs up the
shoe.
4. Repeat steps (2) and (3) until both ends reach the top lugs.

Using This Lacing:
Twistie lacing looks best on shoes with thick, round laces, especially light coloured laces on dark coloured shoes.
These accentuate the fact that the laces are twisted together before crossing over each other.
