Official or Custom-Order: The Best Shoelaces for Your Regal Shoes

We introduce recommended shoelaces for replacing REGAL shoelaces.

• For those who want the same shoelaces as when they purchased
• For those who want to change the atmosphere by changing the "width," "color," or "length"

This should be helpful for either case.

We also introduce recommended lengths, tying methods, and lacing methods, so please refer to those as well.

These are the 2 options for replacing REGAL shoelaces

Genuine Shoelaces

Advantages of buying genuine shoelaces

You can replace them with new shoelaces without changing the atmosphere of the shoes.

How to buy

Available for purchase at various stores, Rakuten, etc.

We could not confirm handling on the official e-commerce site.

2 types for dress shoes: flat and round

We confirmed only two types for dress shoes, flat and round, with color options limited to black and dark brown.

*Store availability was researched. There may be more types if you consult with REGAL Repair, etc.

[Round Laces (Waxed)]

Simple waxed shoelaces.

Many REGAL leather shoes come with round laces, so if you don't want to change the atmosphere, you should replace them with these shoelaces.

It's helpful that there is a relatively wide range of lengths available.

[Flat Laces (Cotton)]

The round laces were waxed, but the flat laces are unwaxed cotton.

At about 4mm, the lace width was thick for dress shoe flat laces.

Flat laces have a more classical atmosphere compared to round laces, so they are mainly found on higher-grade REGAL types or Shetland Fox dress shoes.

However, these are flat laces that lack gloss and are rather thick, not very dressy. If you feel they lack a sense of luxury, we recommend choosing the waxed flat laces introduced below.

Advantages of buying from MONDSHOELACE

Alternatives to Genuine Round Laces

[Thin Glossy Waxed Cotton Round Shoelaces 2/25″(2.2mm)] Same type

The same waxed type shoelace as the genuine round laces.

The lace width is slightly thinner, making it dressier.

[Thin Stay-Tied Waxed Cotton Round Shoelaces 2/25″(2.2mm)] Stay-tied and durable laces

Unlike regular waxed shoelaces, these are a type of waxed shoelace infused with wax.

Compared to regular waxed shoelaces, they have the following characteristics:

• Less glossy
• Tacky and stay-tied
• Durable and less prone to fraying

Recommended for those who are troubled by laces coming untied or who want laces that are resistant to fraying.

Recommended for casual type leather shoes or boots, such as those with visible eyelets and protruding welts.

Alternatives to Genuine Flat Laces

[Thin Glossy Waxed Cotton Flat Shoelaces 1/8″(3mm)] If you prefer waxed

Unlike genuine flat laces, these are waxed and glossy shoelaces.

The lace width is also thin, perfect for dress shoes.

Even on leather shoes that came with round laces, switching to flat laces gives a classical atmosphere.

REGAL's masterpiece "01DRCD" also comes with flat laces, so they are especially recommended for dress shoes like cap-toes.

[Wide Glossy Waxed Cotton Flat Shoelaces 1/5″(5.5mm)] For visible eyelets or boots

5.5mm thick flat laces.

Suitable for American-style leather shoes and boots.

For REGAL shoes, I think they pair well with the long wing "2235NA."

Recommended Length for REGAL Shoelaces

The appropriate length varies based on the number of eyelets, the distance between eyelets, and the opening of the quarters.

When buying shoelaces, it is recommended to measure the length of your current shoelaces and use that as a reference.

If measuring is bothersome, please see the length guide in the article below.

REGAL Shoelace Lacing and Tying Methods

The basic lacing method is "Parallel"

The basic lacing method is called Parallel.

A similar-looking method is Single, but Parallel offers a better hold and is easier for putting on and taking off shoes.

Please see this article for the Parallel procedure.

Stay-tied knotting method

The "Berluti knot" is recommended.

It's a knot that adds one extra step to a standard bow knot, but it becomes considerably less likely to come untied.

Please see this article to learn how to tie it.
