Introducing Ian's Laces App
|
Ian's huge compilation of shoe lacing methods was first brought to the iPhone and iPod Touch back in Aug-2009. A
major update in Mar-2010 has seen the introduction of even more features, plus a bit of fun!
Introducing
Ian's Laces App, your handy pocket reference to shoe lacing. It currently includes 50 different lacing methods,
many with several variations, for a total of 108 possibilities.
All of the methods are fully included (no Internet access is required). Now, you can quickly look up a new style
wherever you are. And if someone does ask: "How did you do that?", the answer is at your fingertips, not your feet!

The lacing diagrams have all been re-drawn in hi-res to fill the whole of the iPhone screen. Perfect for placing
next to the shoe that is being laced!

or additional usage notes.

Draggable Laces:
NEW FEATURE!
The laces dangle just like real shoelaces, and can be dragged around the screen. Besides being fun, both laces have
useful features. How many apps can be "laced" the way you want?

Cool Themes:
1 NEW THEME!

the latest addition: Vampire.

What a cool application- really unique content, great graphics, and interesting interface with lots of cool skins.
Even I can pimp out my trainers now!
This app is awesome! All shoelacing possibilites are in this one convenient app, which is great. I love it and
would highly recommend this app to anyone.
A really fun app that gives you a collection of fun new ways to lace up your shoes. I may be too old for such
nonsense, but that didn't stop me from trying them out. I also was able to share the app with my son (12) and he
loves it too!
Very informative and useful. Nice attention to detail. Mom, Dad, and 17 yr. old daughter have used it and give
Ian's Laces three thumbs up!!!
I bought this app to fix the problem I was having with my work boots binding at the bend. I ended up changing the
lacing on my running shoes also. Great app! The kicker is that my 8 year old son LOVES this! He has now changed
the lacing in all his shoes. Before he treated all his shoes like slip ons and would always end up destroying the
backs. Now he happily ties them to show the lacing and keeps the shoes looking nice.
A simple shoelace app and this guy went all out; I wish other app developers were more like this guy. I've deleted
apps due to their crappyness. I used this app today on my new pair of dress shoes.
