Fintoco Round Waxed Dress Shoe laces with Metal Tips

Last few laces I bought on Amazon fell apart after sometimes just weeks. These I've had for close to a year. Minor freying on one, but so much better than the others.

Great quality. Will buy again.

My husband orders these laces when his others tear or shred. He wears expensive shoes (Allen Edmonds, not to name drop) because they fit his feet and because he is in sales and needs to look presentable (no suit and tie, but nice slacks, belt and, usually, a plaid shirt). As such, he is hard on his shoes and shoe laces. These work and are affordable.

**January 24, 2019 Update - I originally purchased these laces in June of 2017 and they are still in amazing shape. I polish Mr. MVP's shoes every month and take the laces out each time. The laces have softened significantly with wear, but they show no signs of fraying or breaking. Mr. MVP is unbelievably hard on his shoes. He does not avoid puddles and during the Michigan winter he walks straight through the snow instead of around it. I did just order two new pairs because I got brown polish all over the laces with an overzealous polish brush. I'm going to try throwing the laces in the washing machine once the new laces arrive and see if they survive the experience. Again - do not hesitate to buy these laces - they have great colors and they last forever.We went through a year period of ordering and re-ordering wax shoelaces for Mr. MVP’s dress shoes that promised to be tough and long lasting, but each pair only lasted five months and then died. I finally splurged on the Fintoco laces before he left for a work conference last year so his shoes would be in top shape while he was on stage and then quickly forgot about his shoelaces until this morning when I just started to get his gear around for the same conference and realized I have not purchased him new shoelaces in a full year. The Fintoco laces look almost brand new and Mr. MVP is hard on his shoes so that is saying something. These laces have seen a full Michigan winter and spring and have not had a day off in a year. I took them out of his shoes so I could polish them and was pleasantly surprised at how good they still look. When he needs new laces in another couple years we will definitely be ordering these.

My son had some grass green thick cotton laces we had bought from another seller. They were a fun color and he loved them for his Doc Marten's but the laces wore out after a couple short months. The white woven cotton showed up under the green. They looked terrible and we just had not gotten around to replacing them. I needed to order some new laces for my husband's dress shoes. I am picky with ordering items and I generally take a week or two for even simple and inexpensive purchases. I do not like to waste my time with getting something I may need to return. I decided to look for metal tips on the laces and to look for something that was waxed. I was worried these would be greasy feeling or slippery. They are lightly waxed and perfect. My son loves the gold tips. I like how silver or gold are available. These may seem pricy but they are worth the listed price. They are nice quality and the packaging is classy and professional. I like how there is a story on the package about the designer. Great shoelaces and the color selection is nice. We bought 30 inches for my son and 39 inches for my husband's shoes. We probably could have gotten away with the next size down on my husband's laces but his previous shoelaces (that were the same cheapy brand my son had) were 45 inches and much too long! The 39 inches was still an improvement. My husband has the burgundy laces with silver tips for his Doc Marten's.

Color faded after only about 6 weeks and the lace on my left shoe broke around that time also. Used for classic Doc Marten's shoes not boots.

I have a pair of Ecco shoes I really love, a nice soft tan Nubuck, but their soft laces of a slightly contrasting color were wearing out. I knew that one day I would be in a hurry and pull too hard and one would break. Ecco was no help at all. Searching on Amazon, I was using color as my major criterion and Fintoco had by far the most comprehensive selection. I have never thought much about shoelaces but now I understand that there are definitely levels of quality and care in manufacturing--and in pride. My new laces, which are perfect in every respect, arrived with a personal address from the man who created them to the man who purchased them. I would have said that shoelaces are gender-neutral, but not so. The package insert begins, "Hey Dude, THANKS," clearly assuming that laces of this quality have been purchased for men's dress shoes.Well, surprise, fella! Women are breaking new ground everywhere these days and shoelaces are one of the last frontiers. I am delighted with these laces--the color, firm tightness of the cotton, the cool gold-colored tips. They will probably last for the rest of my life, and if I ever need new laces for any other shoes, I will come to Finoco.

Ordered three pairs of these (black, charcoal grey, aqua), which arrived together on time via Prime. The material seems like good quality: slightly stretchy for a good knot but not too much, waxed for longevity but not stiff. However, for a premium product two things need to be _much_ better. 1) I ordered 34" laces, but each of the six laces--including each lace of each pair--were different lengths. 2) The color on the "charcoal grey" was actually medium-light grey. They sent the correct product; it was just a bad dye job. Having done home dying myself, I can appreciate dark/charcoal grey is hard to create. It's not the same as a faded black, and it takes work to get the depth. I also understand the wax inevitably lightens the color a bit. But the aqua was also quite pale, and the black not-quite black.These aren't huge quibbles, except that for $12/pair the quality control should be much better. If it's a finishing touch, then these basics need to be right, consistently. I'm happy to support small business, but there are too many "high end," mostly-online, companies not delivering in this regard. Less attention to the packaging, more attention to the actual product, please.

Fintoco Yellow Round Waxed Dress Shoelaces 26" (66cm) with Silver Tips This range of laces are superb in design and finish. Might seem a strange thing to get excited about but in this case, worth it. I really like a decent lace to finish off the look and these are perfect for my still quite new, relatively un-scuffed DMs. I have no doubt though that they will age well together and last a long time. My only problem is that I want to buy all the colours they have available.The service from Fintoco is second to none - fast and reliable and really nice communications!Go on, treat yourself!

A friend recommended I replace the laces on my shoes rather than the shoes themselves, since there wasn't really anything wrong with them except the frayed laces. Now they look great again, and the metal tips even make them look nicer than before!

Purchased for a pair of Loake desert wellies.. Fit perfectly and whilst more expensive than those purchased in the hight street (When the shops have them in stock that is) they not only look the part, but look quality.

Perfect. I bought the smallest length for a pair of ten hole shoes and they were great. some people may prefer them slightly longer, personal choice. Well made, waxed, tight fitting metal ends. Should last a while.

Shoes may maketh a man but laces maketh the shoeLove these laces. Lots of complimentary remarks and will definitely be ordering more in other colours 👍🏼
