How to: Install Elastic Laces in Children's Shoes

Finding the perfect shoes for kids can be a challenge sometimes. But what if we told you there was an easy way to make your kids’ shoes both functional and fashionable? Discover the magic of Agletless® elastic laces and transform kids’ shoes in no time. Let’s get started!
Step 1: The Preparation
Make sure you have the elastic laces on hand

Step 2: Unpack
Remove the laces from their packaging

Step 3: Stringing
Start threading as you normally would

Step 4: Cross and Continue
Thread the laces crosswise through all the eyelets

Step 5: Stringing the end
Make sure the lace goes through the last eye

Step 6: Take the spinning capsule
This is the twist capsule through which the lace must be pulled

Step 7: Unscrew
Twist open the capsule

Step 8: Enter
Insert the lace's eyelet through one half of the opened capsule

Step 9: Positioning Capsules
Pull half of the capsule through until it reaches a good position

Step 10: Determine correct position
See what position the capsule should be by trying on the shoe

Step 11: Make the knot
Place a button where the capsule should reach

Step 12: Check fit
Be careful not to place the button too close to the shoe, as this will make the fit tighter than expected

Step 13: Cutting
Cut off the remaining lace that you no longer need

Step 14: Twist the capsule closed
Twist the capsule back together

Step 15: Twist the lace back
Since the lace now looks twisted, you can straighten the lace again while it is in the capsule. This will make the installation look a bit neater
