**Attention** Plug size has increased and our new laces will no longer work with all adult sandals orders before order #128150 or Children's sandals before order #198074. If your order was placed before November 14, 2022 (adult sandals) or March 18, 2024 (children's sandals), please select option "Old Plug." For all other orders, select New Plug. *We made this change for easier sandal assembly at our workshop, there is no change in appearance or functionality of your sandals.

Grounded Conductive Laces

  • Featuring two parallel stitches of conductive stainless steel thread up the entire length of the lace and secured to the bottom of the sandal with a copper plug to keep you grounded.
  • The foot's contact with the stainless steel thread on the bottom of the lace allows for efficient electron flow between the skin and the earth via the conductive thread - copper plug circuit. 

Lifestyle Laces -vs- Performance Laces

    • Performance Laces offer more security and longevity while Lifestyle Laces offer more comfort.
    • Performance Laces feature a 1/2" hydrophobic polyester webbing that is wrapped in a highly abrasion resistant Mil-Spec nylon resulting a in 9/16" wide lace.
    • Two different lifestyle lace constructions available:
    • 1. Ergonomic Lifestyle Laces 
      • 9/16” Double Tubular Webbing
      • Earthing Plug & single Conductive Stainless Steel (SS) Thread
      • Colors: Cloud (Single SS), Canyon Clay ( Single SS), Sunset (Single SS), Carbon (mix of Double & Single SS)
      2. Classic Lifestyle Laces 
      • 5/8” or 1/2" Mil-Spec Reinforced Two-Ply Webbing
      • Earthing Plug & Conductive Stainless Steel Thread
      • Colors: Charcoal-liteGrey, Tribal
        *Charcoal-lite is a lighter version of our old charcoal laces.

  • The Grey and Tribal laces are a thinner width (1/2") in comparison to the other lifestyle laces (5/8"). These laces are best suited for smaller feet or people who are sensitive to a toe post between their first and second toe.

One of the great things about our universal sandal design is how easy the laces are to replace with pair of needle nose pair of pliers. We recommend re-lacing one sandal at a time and using the laced sandal as a model to reference as you route your new lace through the sandal. 

 

Please refer to our instruction on how to trim your laces here.
