If you not been happy with you existing laces because they are to short/long buy longer/shorter laces accordingly.

If the laces are for a gift or you can’t measure them a rough guide is

There will be variations in these lengths depending on personal preferences of how you like you laces tied. Tight, loose, long lace ends for bows or now the current fashion of no bows just knotting the laces and tucking the ends in the trainers. Need more infomation about laceing shoes or trainers check Ian's Shoelace Site A site that is the wikipedia of shoe laces.

Q Will the laces that I receive be the exact lengths I ordered?

A Making of laces is an automatic process. Different yarns which are then woven into cord/flat laces will have different characteristics some will stretch more than others depending on the weave design and yarn. So when they go through the machinery to put the lace ends on (aglets), please see link provided http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNTeO5EnNNk&feature=related, there may be slight variations in lengths. We try not to under estimate the length but there may be a +/- 5% difference in length due to the manufacturing process.

To measure the laces there will be an element of pulling the laces straight to enable the measurement to be made. This will be of a similar tension, which you will use when you pull the laces to tie them.

This is an expectable standard within the lace manufacturing processes. Please remember these are not made to exact tolerances.

If you are still not happy with the length that you have received, we are more than happy to refund you if you return them unused, this refund offer excludes oversea sales. If length is critical please email us with the laces you want to buy first and we can give you a more precise indication of the characteristics of that lace.

Q    Are your prices for one lace or a pair?

A   You are buying one pair of brand new laces. The exception being the cut to length leather lace/cord, where you are buying a length of your choice, which you can then cut into a pair of laces.

Q I can't seem to match the colour i want with the colours i have, what can i do?

It is very difficult to match colours over the internet.

Photos will never match the colour in normal light, and even in the light of your home with your eyes the shades of the colour will look different.

But to try and help you please check http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_colors.

If you click on the name of the colour that is closest to the one that you are looking for it will then take you to the various shades of that colour some lists are longer than others.

When you find the shade that is closest to the colour that you are looking for please note the HEX number for that shade and send it to me at tzlacescustomerservices@btconnect.comI can then check it against another web site http://www.color-hex.com which will show a larger area of the colour.

I can then try to match it to the colour creams that I stock (I may send you back a choice of my stock photos) 

Q Does the colour match the photo?

A  Firstly I am not a professional photographer. We all see colours differently. I try to get as good a
match to the colour of a item as I can. I take photos indoor under lights. The problem colours are neons & pink. I try to use the same colour names in all my items, unless there is a manufacture name. If colour is critical please ask a question.

Q    Do you combine shipping?

A  Yes! The system automatically works out via the total weight of the order.

Q      Do you ship internationally?

A    Yes but you have to pay any import duty & taxes
