Lace Me Up Tuesday - Train Track

For today's lacing style, we give you Train Track from "Laces: 100s of Ways to Pimp your Kicks" by Ian Fieggen.

Simple to do, complicated to look at, or it could be the other way around. Either way, it's definitely good for a few minutes of tinkering around with your shoes. Start at the bottom pair of eyelets and thread it from back to front. Remember that the yellow represents the right end of the lace, and the blue represents the left end. Instead of crossing the ends as you normally do, thread them straight through the next set of eyelet exiting through the back. Cross both ends and thread it through the same set of eyelet exiting at the front. Repeat until you reach the end and there you have it!

This style works best for long laces, so better check the length of your laces before proceeding. Moreover, it provides a perfectly snug fit.

Difficulty Level: Walk in the park once you get the hang of it.
