Did you just buy a brand new pair of roller skates, or are the laces you’re using incorrectly tied? Although it takes a bit of time, lace up is really an important part of roller skating. All in all, a well-fitting lace-up shoe will allow you to glide with ease and enjoy the fun of skates. [1] X Generic Research Resources I’ll teach you how to lace up your shoes with popular tips and techniques so you can get started on the road!
Steps
Classic cross-lacing shoelace technique
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/20/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-1.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-1.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/20/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-1.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-1.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Choose a shoelace set that is at least 180 cm long. This length may sound a bit excessive, but actually a little too long will make you more comfortable when lacing your shoes. [2] X Research Source
- If your shoes are high-top or especially large, you may need a minimum of 240-270 cm of laces.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/ce/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-2.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/ce/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-2.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Thread the laces through the first pair of holes near the toe. Pull one end of the shoelace through the first eyelet on the right side of the shoe. Next, you will pull the other end of the lace through the first left eyelet of the shoe. [3] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/ad/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-3.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/ad/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-3.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Pull both ends of the shoelace up to make sure the sides are the same length. Connect the two ends of the wire close together to easily compare the lengths. Pull the rope to adjust the sides to balance if necessary. [4] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/63/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-4.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/63/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-4.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Thread the left end of the string through the second hole on the right. Pull the sling over the left eyelet and thread it from below through the second eyelet on the right side of the shoe. [5] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/bf/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-5.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/bf/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-5.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Thread the shoelace through the third hole on the left. Similar to the previous step, you will pull the shoelace out and loop it over the eyelet, then thread it from the bottom up through the third hole on the opposite side. [6] X Research Source
- Remember to flip the laces so that they don’t get twisted.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/10/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-6.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-6.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/10/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-6.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-6.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Continue stringing the shoelaces in a zigzag pattern until the last regular pair of holes. Remember to string in the same “up/down” pattern as the first pair of holes. Continue threading in an alternating hole-by-hole pattern until all pairs of regular round holes have been threaded. [7] X Research Sources
- “Regular” eyelets are round metal-rimmed holes in the main part of the shoe. Many roller skates have “special” eyelets along the ankle, which look like metal hooks.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/96/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-7.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-7.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/96/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-7.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-7.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Pull the right strand through the left strand previously strung and through the second hole. The goal here is to create a balanced and even line of “X” on the tongue of the skate. Start by pulling the right string above the already strung line in a zigzag pattern. [8] X Research Sources
- There’s a simple trick here: Observe the direction of the rows of wires on either side. All rows of wires on the left will be parallel to each other, and all rows of wires on the right will also be parallel to each other.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/08/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/08/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Thread the string under the previous row of string, threading through the empty hole on the right. Each “X” must be exactly the same as the “X” below it. Thread the lace underneath the existing row of laces, pulling through the third hole on the right side of the shoe. [9] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/20/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-9.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/20/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-9.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Repeat the “loop up/thread down” operation until all the usual holes are threaded. Always pull the rope above the existing line when strung from right to left. Then, you will thread the rope under the existing line when strung from left to right. Continue making “Xs” until you have threaded all the pairs of regular round holes. [10] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/00/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-10.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-10.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/00/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-10.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-10.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Cross the shoelaces around the hook holes. Hold the other ends of the rope with both hands, the right rope over the left one. Loop both laces from the bottom through the first pair of crochet holes, then pull the loop back so that the two laces reappear on the front of the shoe. Continue looping the rope through the next few pairs of eyelets to secure the shoe. [11] X Research Source
- You don’t have to loop the wire through all the eyelet pairs. Many people leave the top untied.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/33/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-11.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/33/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-11.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Tie the rest of the string into a bow. This step is super easy – similar to tying your regular sneakers or lace-up boots! Simply tie the shoelaces into a bow on the front of the tongue for a secure hold. So you’re ready to slide!! [12] X Research Source
- Shoes that have been laced should be tight and secure without slipping off the heel or hurting the toes. Don’t worry if you’re not completely comfortable – you can still adjust a bit. [13] X Research Source
Tips for wearing comfortable shoes
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/87/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-12.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/87/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-12.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Tighten the laces on the top of the shoe if the heel slips a lot. Tie the laces all the way through the regular eyelets, then pull the laces for a snug and tight fit before wrapping them around the eyelets. This will help keep the heel from moving during the slide. [14] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/f9/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-13.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/f9/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-13.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Reduce toe numbness by tying shoes with 2 pairs of laces. Take a pair of shoelaces, tie them in the usual criss-cross fashion, cross the top laces, thread them down and thread them through the bottom 4 pairs of holes on the shoe, then tie them back into a bow. Next, you will take the second pair of strings and continue to tie it from where you stopped earlier. Tie the laces in a crisscross fashion all the way to the collar. [15] X Research Source
- This technique will keep the shoe tight and snug without putting too much pressure on the toe.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/ab/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-14.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/ab/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Lace up the center of the shoe vertically to relieve arch pain. Cross the shoelaces through 3 pairs of holes from the tip of the shoe. Thread the left end of the lace (which you pulled through the third hole on the left side of the shoe) through the fourth hole on the left. Next, you’ll thread that lace down through the 5th hole. Repeat this vertical lace pattern on the right, then continue with the classic criss-cross on the top half of the shoe. [16] X Research Source
- There will be a vertical lace “line” between the fourth and fifth holes from the toe. This will reduce pressure on the arch of your foot and make your shoe more comfortable.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/ba/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces- Step-15.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/ba/Tie-Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Tie- Rpler-Skate-Laces-Step-15.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Switch to waxed shoelaces to prevent the tongue of the shoe from slipping. The tongue will have to lie neatly along the middle of the shoe. Many styles of shoes have a small loop attached to the center of the tongue to keep it in place, but some models do not have this ring causing the tongue to move. In this case, you can swap out your regular shoelaces for wax-coated shoelaces, as these are stiffer than the traditional ones. [17] X Research Source
- You can buy wax-coated roller skates online or at stores that specialize in roller skates for about 200,000 VND.
