How to Lace and Style Pink and Orange Shoe Laces

Quick answer

To lace and style pink or orange shoe laces on your Diemme footwear, first choose the correct length for your model, then decide on a lacing pattern that matches your look and fit preference.

Step-by-step: Lace and style pink or orange laces

1. Check your lace length: Remove your current laces and lay them flat. Measure from tip to tip. Compare with Diemme's length guide: 125 cm for low sneakers like Marostica Low, 165 cm for mid boots like Roccia Vet, 220 cm for tall boots. Pink and orange laces are available in 125 cm; for other lengths, check the product page. Common mistake: buying laces by color alone. Always match the length to your shoe model first.
2. Remove old laces and prep the shoe: Unlace your shoes completely. If the old laces are frayed, cut them off carefully. Wipe the eyelets clean with a dry cloth to remove dirt or debris. This prevents staining your new pink or orange laces. Checkpoint: ensure the eyelets are clear before threading new laces to avoid snagging.
3. Choose a lacing pattern: For a classic look, use standard criss-cross lacing. For a cleaner, more modern style on low sneakers, try straight bar lacing (horizontal lines across the tongue). For boots, a ladder lacing pattern can reduce heel slip. Pink and orange laces stand out best with simple patterns that let the color shine. Common mistake: overcomplicating the pattern with colorful laces. Simple criss-cross or straight bar keeps the focus on the color.
4. Thread the laces evenly: Start from the bottom eyelets, pulling both ends through so the lace is centered. Work your way up, keeping tension even. Avoid twisting the lace — flat laces (like Diemme's) look best when they lie flat against the shoe. Checkpoint: after each pair of eyelets, tug both ends to equalize the length on each side.
5. Tie and adjust the fit: Tie a standard bow knot. For a neater finish, tuck the loops and ends inside the shoe or under the tongue. If the laces are too long, double-knot or wrap the ends around the ankle once before tying. Pink and orange laces can be tied with a visible bow for a pop of color. Common mistake: cutting laces that are too long. Instead, use a tucking or wrapping technique to preserve the lace for future use.
