I didn't like the fussy designs of many pride shoelaces out there, and deeply wanted to create something with a much more streamlined look. I ran with this idea, and designed these shoelaces that feature a seamless gradient of colour down its entire length. Now you can turn any boring pair of shoes into a colourful fashion statement!
These shoelaces are made from recycled PET plastic - the material of soft drink bottles! The printed material is vibrant, durable and easily washable.
[Material Update]
I am slowly transitioning all these shoelaces to a new generation that features a robust polyester weave that is more resistant to fraying, as well as having better friction to prevent the laces from easily coming undone. The new laces are also more suitable for heavier usage, such as skates and sports shoes. As the first generation sells out, they will be replaced with the new versions - don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions about this!
[Shoelace Lengths]
These laces come in different lengths.
The 45"/114cm length is great for your typical casual shoes and trainers (with 5-6 eyelet pairs).
The 54"/137cm length is better suited for high-top sneakers and boots (with 7-8 eyelet pairs).
Some designs come in 96"/244cm lengths for tall boots and skates (with 10-11 eyelet pairs)
[Lace Lock Sets]
Combine your shoelaces with a pair of Shoelace Locks in matching pride colours! Lace Lock Sets include 1 pair of Pride Shoelaces (45" or 54") with 1 pair of matching Pride Lace Locks. These shoe charms are made of gold-plated brass and produced in a cloisonne process, making them rust-proof and very hard-wearing.
To request a mix-and-match set of Shoelaces with different Lace Locks, feel free to make your preferred combination known in the Order Notes at checkout.
To purchase the Lace Locks without the shoelaces, please find their separate listings on the website.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is your packaging discreet? How are your items described on customs labels?
Products are shipped in unmarked, plain padded envelopes, with a label stating the shipping name, address, and a return address.
If purchasing any of the LGBT pride accessories, there is NO mention of any LGBT content on the exterior of the package. Customs labels are filled with generic descriptions such as 'Metal Badges' or 'Fashion Accessories'.
Pride items are usually attached on backing cards featuring LGBT-themed artwork. If other people are likely to open the package, I will be happy to attach them to generic plain cards instead, if requested. Double-wrapping to further obscure the items is also possible. Let me know any special instructions in the 'Order Notes' during the last page of checkout.

Please note that the free shipping service is UNTRACKED, unless upgraded.
UK: 2-3 working days (including Saturdays), up to 5 working days if delayed.
Europe: 3-5 working days, up to 15 working days if delayed.
USA: 5-10 working days, up to 25 working days if delayed.

Do you offer options for tracked shipping?
The standard shipping service is UNTRACKED, unless upgraded. Tracked shipping can be upgraded during checkout, which provides end-to-end tracking.*
For UK mail, the tracked shipping upgrade is via Royal Mail's 'Special Delivery Guaranteed by 1pm' service, for tracked next working-day delivery after dispatch.
For international mail, the 'International Tracked' service provides end-to-end tracking*, but does not affect delivery speed. DHL Express (1-3 day) services can be arranged by request for extra.
*End-to-end tracking is available for USA, CAN, AUS, NZ, and most of EU & Asia. Search 'Royal Mail Country Sending Guides' to check your country's coverage. If not available, the International Signed service will be used.
Do you offer gift wrapping?
Yes. Gift wrapping is available during checkout under shipping upgrades. Gold metallic foil envelopes and gift boxes are available. Please check the listing descriptions for more details.
I think my package is lost/delayed. What can I do?
Mail is sometimes held in local post offices, awaiting collection after a failed delivery attempt. It is worth calling your local branch to check if this is the case.
Unfortunately, I do not have control over any delays caused by postal services, nor can be held responsible for any incorrectly provided addresses.
Within the UK, packages are officially considered lost after 20 working days from postage.
For all destinations out of the UK, packages are considered lost after 47 working days.
If you think your package is lost, please get in contact and I can arrange for replacement packages.
My item arrived damaged. Can I be sent a replacement?
So sorry if this occurs, but sometimes these things do happen (though very rarely!). Please message me with a photograph of the damaged items, and I will make arrangements to have free replacements sent to you.
Are you able to arrange discounted wholesale/bulk orders?
Yes, wholesale orders can be arranged, with discounts corresponding to the number of pieces ordered. Please message for details.
As a non-UK customer, what are the possible VAT, customs or import fees that may apply?
If you are purchasing from out of the UK, VAT and customs/import fees may apply. These rules vary with each country, and it is the buyer's responsibility to check this with their local customs authority.
For some countries, imports of a low value are exempt from taxes.
When possible, Etsy Payments automatically includes VAT in the listed prices, and will remit these taxes to your local authority. This streamlines the customs process under the IOSS import scheme. Please note that in some countries, the VAT pre-collected is independent of additional handling fees.
Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply. I'm not responsible for any delays due to customs.
Can you create custom or personalised accessories?
I can create custom accessories at a starting minimum of 50 pieces — a great way to design a special something for your company, organisation, school club or wedding party. These can be enamel pins, lanyards, shoelaces, or any other accessory featured in my shop.
Unfortunately I cannot create one-off bespoke enamel pins (at a reasonable price). I would be happy to discuss other options such as bespoke presentation backing cards or custom gift wrapping, if these might be suitable alternatives.

They're so cute, im in love!!

These laces are so cute and suit my shoes perfectly. I bought a few others from this shop, including the other lesbian pride one, and I'm not sure which to wear as my default laces. I will probably swap every couple months instead of matching to an outfit. I am more of a sapphic than a lesbian, but it's so nice to have a subtle representation and/or nod to the various queer identities. I highly recommend these laces!
