Rust brown round wax laces carry a warm, reddish undertone you will not find in standard brown. It is the shade that works on cognac leather, whisky suede and boots with a weathered finish. The wax keeps the colour saturated and stops rain from soaking straight into the fibre. The full colour overview is in the waxed round laces.

Usage and care
Rust brown comes into its own on boots and on leather that already has some patina. On sharply polished formal shoes the shade looks less at home. 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. If the laces get wet, let them dry in the shoe at room temperature so they hold their shape.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does rust brown compare to regular brown?
Rust brown holds more red and reads warmer. Standard brown is more neutral and suits a wider range of shoes.
Which length do I need?
3 to 4 eyelets per side call for 80 cm, 4 to 5 eyelets for 100 cm and 5 to 6 eyelets for 120 cm.
Do these laces work on boots?
Yes. On high models with hooks instead of eyelets, 120 cm is usually the right size.
Will the colour bleed in the rain?
No, the yarn is dyed through and the wax keeps moisture largely on the surface.
On cognac and whisky leather, rust brown is the shade that lets the leather stand out instead of the lace.
