This provides for a comfortable shoe fit. When buying shoes, remember that shoes with a larger number of eyelets will make it easier to adjust laces for a custom fit. The conventional method of lacing, crisscross to the top of the shoe, works best for the majority of people. Narrow Feet Use the eyelets farthest from the tongue of the shoes. It will bring up the side of the shoe.
Wide Feet Use the eyelets closest to the tongue of the shoe.
This technique gives the foot more space. Heel Problems Use every eyelet, making sure that the area closest to the heel is tied tightly while less tension is used near the toes. When you have reached the next to last eyelet on each side, thread the lace through the top eyelet, making a small loop. Then, thread the opposite lace through each loop before tying it. Narrow Heel and Wide Forefoot Use two laces.
