About the Maker & This Pair

Whiskers Laces was created by Kyle Groth and Mike Gossett in Delray Beach, Florida, after a broken dress shoelace sent Kyle searching for a better replacement. Its first laces launched in December 2017, and January 2018 was its first full month of business; the company describes 2018 as its founding year. The founders set out to turn an overlooked accessory into a way to express personal style. Their approach combines distinctive colors, considered footwear design and American lace production, giving customers a way to refresh shoes they already own.

Add black laces with contrasting reflective details to your sneakers. This listing offers one pair at 45 inches per lace, with wrapped aglets and a polyester/nylon weave. The photographs show the design on both light and dark athletic shoes. Use the color and profile to choose your look, and check the actual eyelet fit rather than assuming compatibility from a photograph.

Features

Design & Choosing Your Length

  • Color: Black.
  • Profile: Reflective.
  • Quantity: one pair, meaning two individual laces.
  • Wrapped aglets and an included birch storage spool.

To choose a length, remove one of your current laces and measure it from tip to tip without stretching it. Compare that measurement with the available options, taking account of how much bow and spare lace you prefer. Eyelet count alone does not establish a universal fit because shoe width, eyelet spacing and lacing style vary. Check that the aglet passes through your shoe’s eyelets before replacing both laces, then center the lace and adjust tension evenly as you lace upward.

Materials

Materials & Construction

The product page specifies a polyester/nylon weave and wrapped aglets for this reflective style. Exact blend percentages and the composition of the reflective component are not published. No measured reflectivity rating, visibility distance or safety-equipment certification has been supplied.

Each pair comes on a birch storage spool sourced from Maine. The spool keeps the pair together between uses. A claim about the spool’s sourcing does not establish a recycled-content percentage for a cotton lace, nylon component or proprietary surface finish.

Care

Care & Storage

A product-specific washing, detergent, drying or coating-care procedure was not found in the maker’s published information. Retain any care information supplied with the pair and obtain guidance for this exact material and finish before washing or treating it. Sock-care directions on lace-and-sock bundles do not establish shoelace care.

Use the supplied spool to keep the two laces together when they are not in a shoe. Before relacing, check the tips and braid for wear so a damaged end is not forced through an eyelet. Select a replacement based on actual length, profile and eyelet fit; a similar color does not make two different lace constructions interchangeable.
