how do you lace yours:

Cross-over:



or straight across:



Random poll created as I finally recieved mine through the post today. For many moons I have been wearing Duane Peters Vision Streetwear 1985 lo-cut malarky. And then moved on to Woolworths' versions (10 quid baby!)

dial r for revenge
Golly, Poster


cross-over, ALWAYS. straight across doesn't look right.
plus, cross-over is easier to tighten and loosen.

Cross over.
I'm not even sure I'd know how to lace them straight across like that.

um, are there only two? two of them were started by me. I got my pair in the post today. Thus I thought "hmmm, why not!".

definitely cross-over. i tried across, but it just didn't look right to me. very odd looking. and it was annoying to tighten because you have to go through every strand. but with the cross-over, i don't even tighten it, i just slip 'em on, i already tightened it enough to where i like it.

I don't wear chucks.
I wear DC's/Vans... ROCK.
Or... at least I did wear DC's until they got coated in mud at Warped Tour.

I do know how to tie straight across. It's a pain though. I'd only do that if I had some low-top chucks

see, for me, that would create even MORE of a reason to wear them!

see, even then I wouldn't. I have the Woolworths versions, and i did try straight across but it looks pants. None of my cons/eqv. are tied straight across.


(and who was the silly-billy who voted "straight accross"? Razz)

Cross-over, simply because I can't do straight across.

cross-over because straight across takes too much time to do.
