Product Information
Full details
The Crep Protect Wide Laces in black are designed for sneaker enthusiasts who want to upgrade their footwear aesthetics while adding a layer of functional protection. These laces offer a bold, laidback look for trainers, featuring specialized liquid-repellent technology that resists stains and spills. While they provide excellent style and maintenance benefits, it is important to note that their protective water-repellent coating is most effective for up to 10 washes, requiring maintenance or reapplied protection thereafter.

What size are these laces?

Can I wash these in a machine?
It is recommended to hand wash them to preserve the integrity of the repellent coating for as long as possible.
Are these laces suitable for all sneakers?

Troubleshooting
Laces are attracting dirt despite being repellent
The protective coating may have worn off after multiple washes; perform a gentle hand wash and consider a secondary repellent spray.
Laces feel too loose
Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets and tighten the tension starting from the bottom of the tongue moving upwards.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward: remove your current laces and thread the Crep Protect laces through your sneaker eyelets, adjusting tension to your preference. These are sized for children's UK size 1.
To clean, hand wash in lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or heavy scrubbing, as these can strip the protective finish prematurely. To maximize the life of the repellent coating, air dry the laces naturally away from direct heat sources. Once the protective coating wears off after 10 washes, you may continue to use the laces as standard footwear accessories, or consider using a separate spray-on repellent to restore the water-resistant properties.
