Its fine, flat braid pattern is unobtrusive and looks refined, even in strong colours.Waxed, hot-rolled and polished, it has a silky-matt sheen. The wax penetrates the braid and protects the fibre. If you are looking for a stronger, rustic lace, choose the F6-XR: it has more volume because more yarn is braided into it.  F6-CS at a glance    Swipe sideways FeatureF6-CS Classic SportiveWidthShape6 mm, flat.MaterialFibre100 % cotton, waxed.Braid patternLookFine and unobtrusive.SheenWaxingHot-rolled and polished, silky matt.LengthsRange75, 90, 120 and 150 cm.OriginProductionMade in the EU.StrongerSister seriesF6-XR"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which sneakers and shoes is the 6 mm F6-CS series ideal for?","answerCount":1,"acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"The F6-CS suits shoes with large visible eyelets: high-quality leather sneakers, court sneakers, high-top sneakers, comfort shoes and boots.On leather sneakers it replaces the simple factory laces with a lace that has a subtle sheen and a high-quality feel.

Because the fine braid pattern is unobtrusive, the lace does not look loud even in strong colours.

Friction and warmth redistribute the wax.Protect your fingers with a cloth or a piece of leather while doing so. Now and then, unthread the lace completely so that the hidden parts are cared for too. For flat laces, briefly smoothing them with an iron also helps, on a higher heat as for a T-shirt or jeans: the wax is redistributed and the lace lies smooth again. Afterwards, clean wax residue thoroughly off the soleplate before ironing light-coloured laundry again. This works many times, but not for ever. Washing machines and bleach are not meant for waxed laces. Light-coloured laces on white sneakers are replaced when they are heavily soiled; if you wear light-coloured laces, it is best to keep a supply.  Care    Swipe sideways SituationWhat to doBecome dullRefresh the sheenClose a cloth with a little shoe cream firmly around the lace and pull it along firmly.SmoothingIronIron briefly, on a higher heat as for jeans.

The F6-CS comes in 75, 90, 120 and 150 cm.The length needed depends on the lacing style and the foot, and on sneakers and boots the eyelets are far apart. That is why a rule of thumb based on pairs of eyelets helps little here.  Lengths    Swipe sideways LengthTypical shoes75 cmShortCasual shoes, comfort shoes, Derbies with two pairs of holes.90 cmMediumLow-top sneakers, comfort shoes.120 cmLongSneakers, ankle-high boots.150 cmVery longHigh-top sneakers, tall boots.Learn moreFAQOur frequently asked questions"}}] }
