- 1). Start at the bottom eyelets (the small holes where your laces are fed through) towards the tip of your shoes. Take one side of the lace and feed in through on eyelet, then take the other side and feed it through the other eyelet, and even the lace out so that you have an even amount of lace leftover in both hands. Pull the lace taught, and it should look like the lace is running across the bottom of your shoe.
- 2). Take one side of the lace, and feed it through the next eyelet directly underneath the first eyelets. It doesn't matter what side you choose first, but you do need to remember which lace you used to continue lacing properly. After that, run that side of lace across the shoe again, and feed it into the matching eyelet on the opposite side. You should now have two sets of eyelets with two straight laces.
- 3). Pull the same lace you just fed down, and feed it through the eyelet on the same side you're on, two eyelets down - you're skipping one eyelet here. Pull it across the shoe again, and feed it into the matching eyelet on the opposite side. Your shoe should now have a straight lace across the first and second set of eyelets, nothing on the third set, and a straight lace across the fourth eyelet.
- 4). Pull the same lace down again, and skip the eyelet directly underneath of it. Feed it through the eyelet after, which is the sixth and last eyelet, the same way you just did previously. Pull tight and out, and your down with that side of the lace.
- 5). Now go back to the other side of lace, and start at the top. Lace your shoes the same way you did with the first side of lace, but fill in the eyelets you skipped: the third and the fifth eyelets.
- 6). After lacing across the fifth eyelet, pull the same side of the lace down and string it through the eyelet directly below it - the sixth eyelet. The lace left over is what you'll use to tie your shoes.
