Skip to contentHow do I lace my ghillies?
- First, start by pulling the laces through the top center tab (aka “finger”) of the ghillie so that there is an even amount of lace on both sides.
- Next, pull the laces down through the first set of side fingers. The laces are now forming an upside-down “U”.
- Pull the laces through the remaining fingers in a criss-cross fashion like you would a pair of tennis shoes. Stop after you get to the last finger!
- Cross the laces over the top of your foot (make an “X”).
- Send the laces around the sides of your foot and through the elastic tabs on either side.
- Now send the laces through the tab on the back of the shoe, at your heel. The laces from both sides of your feet will need to go through this loop!
- Bring the laces back around the sides of your foot and up over the top of the shoe.
- At this point, there are several options, depending on how much lace you have left and how snug you like your shoes: you may tie them in a knot or bow, you may cross them over each other and around underneath your foot another time before tying, or you may have side eyelets to thread your laces through to provide extra ‘pull’ or tightness in pulling the shoe up to the arch of the foot.
- When in doubt, bring your shoes to class and ask your teacher!
