Waxed Round Laces – Burgundy

Burgundy round wax laces add colour to black and brown shoes without reading as a statement. The deep wine shade sits close to oxblood and works best on dark leather, where it catches just enough daylight to show. The waxed finish keeps the lace stiff enough to stay flat across the eyelets. More shades are in the waxed round laces.

Usage and care

Burgundy is the obvious pick when black looks too severe and brown too warm. On black oxfords it adds depth, on burgundy or dark brown leather it reinforces the existing tone. Choose 80 cm for 3 to 4 eyelets per side, 100 cm for 4 to 5 eyelets and 120 cm for 5 to 6 eyelets. Lace up evenly so the lace runs smoothly through the eyelets and the wax does not wear at one point.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which shoe colours suit burgundy?

Black, dark brown and oxblood. On light shades such as sand or cognac the contrast lands too hard.

Which length do I need?

80 cm with 3 to 4 eyelets per side, 100 cm with 4 to 5 eyelets and 120 cm with 5 to 6 eyelets.

Will the colour rub off on light leather?

No. The yarn is dyed through and the wax seals the fibre, rain included.

How many laces do I receive?

Two, enough for one pair of shoes.

Burgundy is a small change with a clearly visible result on dark shoes.
