Zipper Lacing
(Lug version)
|
|
A lug version of
Zipper Lacing. Though awkward to tighten, this lacing holds very firmly, making it great for lacing skates
tightly. It also looks interesting, a bit like a giant zipper. |
 |
Lacing Technique:
1. The lace runs straight across the bottom (grey section) and up through both bottom lugs.
2. The ends are looped back under the laces where they feed into the bottom of the lugs.
3. The ends are then crossed over each other, then they feed up into the next set of lugs up the shoe.
4. Repeat steps (2) and (3) until both ends reach the top lugs.
