Bont Skates Waxed Laces - 6mm & 8mm - 47 71 79 96 108 - Midnight Black

A fellow skater recommended wax laces. I am glad I listened. Tough lace that stay in place.

They are all right

I love having a spare set of laces so if Im on a long trail skate I can easily pull them out of my fanny pack. The fact that theyre waxed means they arent loosening on me while on long distance skates which is a huge plus.

These are my favorite laces because they have minimal stretch, and with the wax, they stay put for a 2+ hour rolker derby practice or bout day.

I have Reidell boots—bought in 2012. I finally replaced those original laces this year (2022). Major difference. I guess I took laces for granted, but they do have an affect on fit and how a skate works with your foot. Anyway, those old original laces just kept feeling thinner and more and more ‘wire’ like. They didn’t break, but I always felt like that was just a matter of time, so I preemptively bought these to replace them. These immediately felt so much more secure. The wider surface made the entire boot feel more substantial. I probably had to lace less tightly, which maybe then gave me a wider range of lacing options. Definitely would buy again, and more than that, if/when I ever need to replace my boots, I’ll just start off with these laces instead of the stock pair.

These were a perfect replacement lace for my Riedell Solaris skates.

I like the thinner width of these laces (6mm) though I’m not a fan of the waxy feel. They do stay tied well with the wax, but they leave marks on my suede skates. I’ve melted off some of the wax by soaking in very hot water with a bit of dish soap and hanging to dry. This may affect the performance, but the texture is better for me.

Bought these leases to replace a set of rollerblades, I want to make sure I got a set that were extra strong and also the right length, these fit the bill. Great size, thickness, construction appears to be quite well. Of course we’ll see how they hold up overtime but initial quality, my assessment is I am quite happy with the purchase.

Bought 3 pairsof these. They are great laces, were delivered early every time, and the packing was friendly and made me smile. Great company and great product!

They are shoestrings
