How to lace Tricker's Burton

Compare Parallel, Overlap and Underlap

I will introduce the appearance of parallel, overlap, and underlap, and how to pass each.

parallel

Both Tricker's official EC site in Japan and Tricker's official EC site in the UK were connected to all Burtons in parallel.

If you pass it in parallel, the bars of one character will line up as shown in the image. It goes well with formal wear, and most dress shoes are run in parallel.

In addition, it has a high holding power and is easy to loosen, making it the most popular method for lacing leather shoes.

For details on how to pass parallel, please see this article.

Overlap

On the official website, it was only parallel, but I often see overlaps being passed through Burton.

It looks more casual than parallel, so it is often used for casual leather shoes and sneakers.

In addition, it can hold the instep firmly, so it is also used in sports scenes.

For details on how to pass overlaps, please refer to this article.

underwrap

I haven't seen many cases with underwrap, but it looks like an overlap.

This underwrap is the opposite of the overwrap where the string is passed through the eyelet from the back.

Compared to overlapping, underwraps have a weaker grip on the instep and are easier to loosen, so it is recommended for shoes with tight insteps.

Please see this article for details on how to pass the underwrap.

Which way is best for Burton?

I have listed the characteristics of each method.

Which way do you recommend? Parallel or overlap.

Which one you choose depends on your taste, but if you have a lot of pretty clothes, why not choose parallel, and if you have a lot of casual clothes, why not choose overlap?

Personally, I prefer parallel because it's easy to put on and take off.

How to Thread Tricker's Moulton (Country Boots)

Compare Parallel, Overlap and Underlap

I will introduce the appearance of parallel, overlap, and underlap, and how to pass each.

parallel

On the official Tricker's EC site in the UK, it was passed through all Moultons in parallel.

It has features such as high holding power, easy to tighten and loosen, and good compatibility with formal occasions.

Since it is a little troublesome to put on and take off the boots, we recommend the parallel method, which is easy to tighten and loosen.

For details on how to pass parallel, please see this article.

Overlap

There was an overlap on the official Trickers EC site in Japan .

Overlap has a high holding power and is often used for casual shoes.

underwrap

Like the Burton, I haven't seen many cases with an underlap, but it looks more like an overlap.

This underwrap is the opposite of the overwrap where the string is passed through the eyelet from the back.

Compared to overlapping, underwraps have a weaker grip on the instep and are easier to loosen, so it is recommended for shoes with tight insteps.

Please see this article for details on how to pass the underwrap.

Which way is best for Moulton?

I have listed the characteristics of each method.

I think that you can choose how to pass it "somehow" or "preference", but why not choose according to the following criteria?

Moulton is a boot, so not only the appearance but also the ease of loosening the laces is one of the major criteria for choosing the way to pass them through.

3 ways to wear boots

Passing method ①: When passing to the top

Simply go all the way to the top. It is recommended when walking for a long time because it will firmly fix it to the ankle.

Passing method ②: When passing through the second from the top A

[How to wrap the remaining string around the ankle]

If you pass the laces all the way to the top, the upper part of the boot tube will hit your feet and it will feel uncomfortable, and it will be difficult to put them on and take them off.

If you tie it as it is, there will be a lot of string left over, so let's wrap the extra string around the ankle.

But here's the problem. Is the knot too short?

Tricker's genuine shoelaces are 120cm long, but 130cm is best in this case.

If you want 130cm shoelaces, we recommend purchasing them at MONDSHOELACE, where you can freely choose the length.

MONDSHOELACE "Waxed Shoelace Maruhimo Stone Pattern 3.5mm (Brown)" 130cm is just right.

Passing method ③: When passing through the second from the top B

[Thread a short string if it is troublesome to wrap it around]

As I introduced above, if you only want to pass the string through the second string, it would be nice to wrap the remaining string around the ankle, but I think it would be troublesome to actually do it.

However, if you tie it as it is, the lace will be too much, so let's pass the 110cm shoelace through.

I used MONDSHOELACE "Waxed Shoelace Maruhimo Stone Pattern 3.5mm (Camel)" 110cm.

The genuine shoelaces are 120cm long, so you can order the length freely at MONDSHOELACE.
