What is the lifespan of leather shoe laces and when to replace them?

when your shoelaces break

Of course, if the string breaks, it's the end of its life. Let's buy a new one.

I've seen office workers tie the cut parts together, but it's uncool and doesn't give a clean feeling, so don't keep using it.

However, I think that the fact that the string is used until it breaks means that the string has deteriorated to some extent. It is ideal to replace with a new one when the fuzz on the shoelaces is noticeable, and replace it before the laces break.

When the fuzz on the shoelaces is conspicuous

When the fluffing of the cord becomes noticeable, it is the end of its life. Let's buy a new one.

When the laces are not fuzzy, the overall look of the shoe looks more toned and clean. Even if you polish your shoes cleanly, it will look even better if the laces are clean, so if you notice any fuzz, replace them.

Leather shoelaces are generally made of “wax cord” and “gas cord”. "Wax string" is coated with wax and is durable and glossy, while "gas string" is not coated and easily fluffs.

Therefore, although there is a compatibility with the appearance depending on the atmosphere of the shoe, it is recommended to choose shoelaces with a coating such as "waxed cord".

If you replace the shoelace that has noticeable fluff, it will look like the following. The atmosphere changes completely.

When the tip of the shoelace (aglet cell) comes off or deteriorates

If the tip of the string, called the aglet cell, comes off or deteriorates, the end of the life of the string is reached. Let's buy a new one.

It's uncool to wear leather shoes with the tip part coming off and the laces sticking out. It doesn't look good, and it's inconvenient because it's difficult to pass the string through.

If the tip comes off or is partially peeled off, replace it immediately.

Also, if you are concerned about the deterioration of the tip, we recommend choosing shoelaces with metal cells instead of plastic cells.
