Hash Lacing (Lug version)
A lug version of Hash Lacing. When used on modern boots and sneakers with a wide gap between the sides, the result resembles a diagonal series of hash "#" symbols.
Besides complementing the sneakers, these red edged laces really show how the lacing runs. Picture sent to me by Dale E.	Lacing Technique: 1. The lace runs straight across the bottom (grey section) and is fed into the top of both bottom lugs. 2. The ends emerge through the bottom of the lugs and are then crossed over and fed into the top of the next set of lugs up the shoe. 3. Repeat step (2) until both ends reach the top lugs. Features: Decorative look Harder to tighten Comparative Length = 113% Laced area uses more (about +13%) Longer laces needed (about +6%) Shortens lace ends (about −12%) More details
