This decorative lacing, sent to me by Ron Belanger, is used by U.S. para-
troopers and ceremonial guard units wearing jump boots with white laces.

Lacing Technique:
1. The lace is run straight across the bottom (grey section) and emerges through
both bottom eyelets.
2. The laces then go straight up and are fed into the next set of eyelets up the
shoe.
3. The ends are crossed over and are fed under the vertical lace section
on the opposite sides of the shoe before going straight up and into the next set
of eyelets up the shoe.
4. At the top set of eyelets, the laces once again cross over and pass under the
straight section before being tied.
Ian's Rating:

Regardless of the lacing method you choose, finish it off in style
with my own Ian Knot, the World's Fastest Shoelace Knot.
