Our Philosophy: Shoelaces in Harmony with Nature

We craft premium waxed shoelaces from 100% pure cotton – for a refined appearance, comfortable wear, and the protection of our environment.

Naturally Superior: 100% Cotton

Nature is our benchmark of quality. That is why we exclusively use cotton – a renewable raw material that meets the highest environmental standards. In doing so, we make a tangible contribution to protecting the environment and deliberately avoid synthetic blends.

Why LACCICO?

Your Benefits in Detail:

  • Dimensionally Stable & Resilient: Thanks to the densely braided construction made of tear-resistant cotton, every lace remains completely shape-retaining and exceptionally durable for daily wear.
  • Waxed & Abrasion-Resistant: The deep-waxing treatment makes our premium shoelaces dirt-repellent and weather-resistant, while imparting a refined satin finish.
  • Distinctive Feel: Experience the smooth, tactile, and substantial feel that secures an uncompromising knot hold.

The wax penetrates the fibre structure of the cotton braid completely and coats the cotton fibres, similar to the tanning agents in leather. It shields the natural fibre against moisture, prevents mechanical fraying of the strands, and minimizes friction, allowing the lace to glide smoothly and with minimal wear through the eyelets during tying.

LACCICO Length Guide (Rule of thumb for classic footwear)

The correct length is essential for both secure hold and proper aesthetics. As a rule of thumb for classic footwear, the number of eyelet pairs serves as a guideline:

  • 1–2 eyelet pairs: 45 cm
  • 2–3 eyelet pairs: 60 cm
  • 4–5 eyelet pairs: 75 cm (for derby lacing with 5 eyelet pairs, 90 cm may also be suitable depending on instep volume)
  • 5–6 eyelet pairs: 90 cm
  • 7–8 eyelet pairs: 120 cm
  • 9+ eyelet pairs / boots: 150 to 180 cm

Master Tip: When in doubt, measure your existing laces while unlaced. This ensures a precise fit tailored exactly to your personal preference.

Made from 100% premium cotton, densely braided on modern rotary braiding machines in traditional European mills. We deliberately avoid synthetic blends entirely.

The deep-waxing treatment seals the natural cotton fibres against water and dirt. Moisture and mud simply bead off the surface, preventing the laces from soaking through, softening, or swelling. Even in heavy rain, the braid retains its shape and reliable knot hold.
