The natural fibre does not swell, does not stretch out, and becomes neither limp nor warped even when completely drenched on the foot.  Moisture Protection Comparison    Swipe sideways Property in Wet ConditionsLACCICO Waxed CottonUnwaxed Standard LacesDimensional Stability & SwellingWax penetrates the braid; no swelling of fibres.Soaks up water; fibres swell up and stretch out.Knot Security in RainHigh static friction is fully preserved even when wet.Becomes slippery and floppy; knot unties easily.Drying BehaviourDries true to shape without stiffening or warping.Hardens or wrinkles unsightly after drying."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How does dense braiding affect the tensile strength of coloured shoelaces?","answerCount":1,"acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Physically, the colour of a shoelace has no influence whatsoever on its tensile strength.The actual tensile and tear strength results exclusively from the quality of the cotton yarn, the braiding density\u2014which distributes tensile load evenly across all yarn strands\u2014and the wax saturation, which minimises fibre friction during use.  Tensile Strength & Load Factors    Swipe sideways Influencing FactorEffect on Tensile StrengthLACCICO Material StandardYarn & Fibre QualityHighest strength through 100% pure cotton yarns.No use of inferior short fibres or stretch cores.Braiding DensityTensile load is distributed evenly across all strands.Compact braiding prevents localised overloading.Deep WaxingMinimises internal fibre friction during tightening.Protects the lace from mechanical fatigue failure.ColouringNo physical effect whatsoever on strength.Orange laces possess the exact same tensile strength as black."}}] }
