fliteskates 2 Report post Posted November 17, 2019 Does anyone know what the thickest laces are that I can buy? I hate the Elite laces because their thick ones thin out as you pull them tighter. Last topic I could find was from five years ago, but back then it seems the Bauer Supreme laces and Howie’s laces are the thickest ones you can get?

z1ggy 81 Report post Posted November 18, 2019 I use Proguard, which I think are the ones that come stock in my Trues. I think they are 1/2'' thick. Just don't use Elite... total junk. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sniper9 530 Report post Posted November 19, 2019 I like elite bc I actually like how thin they are (the waxed ones) but they def don't last as long as Howie's. I like Howie's bc of how durable they are but they have less wax than I'd prefer. Still very good laces though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They're so thin they tend to roll. Thicker laces stay flat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
