The number of eyelets on a shoe can be the easiest way to work out which Shoelace size you need for your shoe.
Eyelets are a small hole on the side of a shoe, where the laces go into to tie the shoe.
Eyelets are the best way to find which replacement shoelaces you need. Please be aware to only count the number of eyelets on one side of the shoe.
Found what you need? If so, browse our range of Shoelaces. If not, see further below for types of sneakers and what shoelace length they need.
We also have a specific Air Jordan Series Shoelace Size Guide!


Why does the length of your shoelaces matter? As long as they are long enough to go through all the eyelets, isn’t that about it?
Finding the right length of shoelaces is more than just fitting the lace into all the eyelets. The right length of laces sits perfectly on your shoe, and managing the excess laces is often easy with numerous options available.
If the laces are too short, they won’t fit, and the shoe won’t provide a firm grip on your foot. When the laces are too long, they are not only hard to manage and keep tidy, but they also pose a tripping hazard. You can accidentally trip on your laces and fall.
The right length of laces also gives your shoe that elegant and organized look. They also work perfectly with any lacing designs you might have in mind.
Ideally, you should only leave a small overhang for your laces when choosing the right length. That way, even if you leave the laces hanging, they can’t trip you or get tangled.
