Experiment with lacing styles

Find your favourite lace look by mixing up your lacing methods.

Criss-cross

This is the easiest, most common and intuitive lacing method. It’s a clean, simple look that suits any occasion.

Army method

This one’s perfect for military boots and a casual aesthetic. Start by stringing the lace through the bottom two eyelets, moving from outside to inside. Then cross the lace diagonally over the tongue, under the next eyelet and string through the next eyelet up – from outside in. Repeat.

Rope ladder

Great for a combat boot, achieve this look by running the lace through the bottom eyelet from the inside out. Then cross laces horizontally and twist once around each other before lacing through the next eyelet up – from inside to out. Repeat.

What to wear with men’s lace up boots

Because lace-up boots tend to be full of character, you can play up to that with a statement coat or jacket. And of course, they also go famously well with jeans either tucked into or over the ankle of the boot.
