Yellow Laces


As I continue to read high praises of the Knottery from all over the blogosphere, I inch closer to picking up an array of colorful shoelaces. Yellow? Definitely. Orange and green? Perhaps. 

Colored shoelaces. 
Cool idea, or too much?

  1. I really like the idea but keep in mind that laces color for boots when worn by punks had very specific meanings depending on the geography. Since most punks wore black boots, I know I did, and brown shoes, in my opinion, are the way to go, it might be removed enough. Just something to keep in mind.

    1. Thanks for the advice. I'd not thought of the color significance in such manner.

  2. I'd say go for it.
    Colored laces are kick ass!
    What do you think about their lapel flowers?

    1. Not for me, personally, but I like them. Usually, with my tie and pocket square combinations, I find adding the lapel flower would be a little much. I stick to a small, bronze, Orthodox cross pin running through my lapel.
