How Do You Find the Right Shoelace Length?
There are three ways, from most to least accurate:
- Measure your current laces if they fit well.
- Look up your sneaker in the chart above.
- Count the eyelet pairs on one side of your shoe and match them to the chart.
Don't go by shoe size. Two shoes in the same size can have different eyelet counts and need different laces.
How Do You Measure Your Existing Shoelaces?
- Remove one lace from your shoe.
- Straighten it out without stretching it.
- Measure from tip to tip, including both plastic or metal tips.
- Pick the closest length. If it barely tied, go one size up. If it left long tails, go one size down.
Does Lacing Style Affect Shoelace Length?
Yes. Heel-lock lacing and lacing every eyelet to the top use extra lace, so you may need one size longer. Skipping the top eyelets uses less, so you may need one size shorter.
What Shoelace Length Do You Need for Different Types of Shoes?
Low-Top Sneakers
Usually 45" or 54". The Nike Dunk Low and Air Force 1 Low take 54", while the Adidas Samba OG and Air Max 90 take 45".
Mid-Top Sneakers
54" for 6–7 eyelet pairs, or 63" for 7–8 eyelet pairs.
High-Top Sneakers
Usually 54" to 72". The Jordan 1 High takes 72" for a tied look or 63" for a loose look. The Dunk High and Air Force 1 High take 63", and Converse Chuck Taylor high tops take 54".
Running and Athletic Shoes
Most take 45" or 54". The On Cloud 5 takes 36", On Cloudmonster and Cloudsurfer take 45", ASICS Gel-Kayano and Gel-Lyte III take 54", the Adidas Ultra Boost takes 41", and the NMD takes 30". If you use heel-lock lacing and your laces barely tie, go one size up.
Boots
Count every eyelet and hook pair you lace through, then use the chart. Boots often need longer laces than sneakers, so measuring your original laces is the safest bet. Shop boot laces.
Dress Shoes
30" for 3 eyelet pairs, or 36" for 4 eyelet pairs. Shop waxed dress shoelaces.

How Do You Choose Between Two Sizes?
Some eyelet counts fit two sizes. For example, 6 eyelet pairs can take 45" or 54".
- Go longer for wide shoes, wide feet, a bigger bow, or lacing all the way to the top.
- Go shorter for narrow shoes, a small bow, tight lacing, or skipping the top eyelets.
How Can You Tell If Your Laces Are Too Long or Too Short?
Too long: big bow loops, tails that drag on the ground, or extra lace you have to wrap around the shoe. Go one size down.
Too short: the lace can't reach the top eyelets, the bow is tiny, you have to over-tighten to tie it, or the knot keeps slipping. Go one size up.

Sizing varies from shoe to shoe. Please use this chart as a rough estimate for shoestring sizes and standard shoe lace length. For best results in determining your ideal shoe lace length, please measure the length of your original laces. If you are between two sizes using our chart, we recommend choosing the shorter shoe string length for most applications.
Please note that our laces can sometimes have a 1"-2" variance in length due to the slight elastic properties in the materials used. This is more commonly seen in longer lace lengths (54"+) but may also be present in other lengths.
FAQs
Q. What is the typical length of laces that come with Nike shoes?
Nike shoes typically come with laces that are about 45 to 54 inches long, depending on the type of shoe and the number of eyelets.
Q. Are Nike shoe laces longer than those of other brands?
Nike shoe laces are generally comparable in length to those offered by other major sports brands. Length mainly varies based on the shoe design and function rather than the brand itself.
Q. What is the average length of standard shoe laces?
The average length of standard shoe laces ranges from 27 to 54 inches. The specific length depends on the shoe type, such as dress shoes, casual shoes, or athletic shoes.
Q. What length of shoelaces should I use for a shoe with 6 eyelets?
For shoes with 6 eyelets, shoelaces that are about 36 to 45 inches long are typically recommended. This length provides enough slack for tying without too much excess.
Q. What are the standard shoe lace lengths available in the market?
Standard shoe lace lengths include 27, 30, 36, 40, 45, 54, 63, and 72 inches. These lengths accommodate a wide range of shoes, from children's sizes to large adult sizes.
Q. How do I determine the ideal length of laces for my shoes?
To determine the ideal lace length, consider the number of eyelet pairs your shoes have. A general rule is to use 27 inches for 3 eyelets, 36 inches for 4-5 eyelets, 45 inches for 5-6 eyelets, and longer for more eyelets or wider feet.
Q. How does the length of standard shoe laces compare to those designed for sports shoes?
Standard shoe laces are typically shorter than those designed for sports shoes, as sports shoes often have more eyelets and require longer laces for proper fit and support.
Q. What techniques can I use to loose lace my Jordan 1 Lows effectively?
To loose lace Jordan 1 Lows, thread the laces loosely through each eyelet, leaving enough slack between each crossing to create a casual look. You can either tie the ends or tuck them into the shoe for a clean appearance. Adjusting the tightness at the bottom eyelets can also help in maintaining comfort while achieving the loose-lace style.
