Thank Goodness There Are Replacement Laces

PostedApril 10, 2013
I'm very glad that Sperry offers the replacement show laces for their products, and I don't have to buy a generic shoe lace.
I bought these shoes at Christmas and the original laces did not last very long, but since I was able to get ones just like the original laces there was no issue.

Easy-peasy

PostedMarch 22, 2013
I just replaced the laces in my old original style navy leather topsiders with bright purple laces. They look fresh and fun and it totally updated the look of my old classic favorites!! It took only 2 or 3 minutes with the included tool and couldn't be easier. I also have a tan pair of topsiders and purchased the light blue laces for those. Love the look!!

Too wide...

PostedMarch 16, 2013
I was excited to get these, as I had ordered the raspberry color to match the pattern of my new Sperry's. But after opening the package I was disappointed in how thick the laces themselves were. At first I thought they were men's laces.. but I double checked and saw it's "one size fits all". But these laces were twice the thickness of the ones that came with the shoes. Because of the thickness, I had trouble getting them to stay in the needle.. most of the time they just got stuck after the first hole. I'm pretty sure I attached them to the needle correctly, as I had no problem threading the old laces back through. They didn't lay correctly through the grommets, so I ended up just going to a craft store and getting 8 yds of pink suede laces for about 4 bucks... =)

I agree, these laces are to wide for my shoes. Also the needle didn't fit into the shoe eyelets. I notified the company and I'm still waiting for the replacment child laces they are suppossed to be sending.

I am glad that you sell replacement laces

PostedMarch 13, 2013
The replacement laces are a great way to extend the life of a perfectly good pair of shoes. Easy to re-lace, they even include a lacing needle.

Worth the money

PostedMarch 12, 2013
We used these laces for my daughter's shoes that aren't actually true Sperry's but they worked wonderfully. Very easy to use the stringing needle that comes with it. Had to just burn the end of the lace slightly to fit it into the needle. Would definitely recommend these.

Needle to large to go through the eyelets.

PostedFebruary 26, 2013
The needle was to large to go through the eyelets and the leather lace wouldn't adhere properly to the grooves in the needle head. I took the shoe to a repair shop & they had white laces with a pliable metal inbedded in the leather lace itself & would weave nicely through the casing & in & out the outlets. I would have preferred the silver color but I couldn't make it work.

Renew my old Sperrys

PostedJanuary 16, 2013
The lace kit made my Sperry's look new and stylish, even though they were an old, simple pair. Now they stand out, and net me several compliments whenever I wear them. Like others have said, "threading" the needle can be a bit tricky and frustrating, but worth the effort.

Just make sure you order the correct color.

PostedDecember 10, 2012
The color reads different on the computer than in person. It will cost you almost as much as the product cost you to send it back at their highly reccomended UPS. I just kept the other ones that I orderd because it was going to cost $9.78 to return them. Browns are real tricky. They are better than the original shoe laces.

Good as expected

PostedOctober 12, 2012
My shoelaces on my Sperry's broke a few years ago, and I have just now gotten around to replacing them. This kit was as good as expected. It was a little difficult to get the lace threaded on the needle, but I got it to work. Shipping was a little slow.

Great lacing needle

PostedSeptember 21, 2012
The lacing needle worked perfectly. However the laces I received were not the plain rawhide I expected. They had a thin film of gold on the inside of the lace. With some difficulty and some patience, I was able to strip the gold coating off and ended up with a perfect (non-colored) rawhide lace.
