Superstar Vintage Laces -
Teaj - 22-09-10
Following on from the other thread....
Here are some photos that should help you decide which length to go for.
In summary there's not much difference between shoes sizes:
UK 11 and below: if you want to lace to the top and tie the laces then get the longer 150cm version. If you like them loose then get the shorter ones.
UK 11.5 and above: probably best to get the longer ones, the shorter ones wont reach to the top lace hole.
Hope that helps, any questions just let me know.
ALSO - I'll include a free pair for people who are happy to take photos of them laced in their supes! Especially consortiums

Thanks for the solid info MrSS! BTW, when do you plan to restock some more colors of your MrSS Superior Fat Laces?

Oh no! That's a huge shame... I never got to try 'em out yet. Any chance you can elaborate on the situation (what happened, etc.)? I'm curious...

The manufacturer f*cked up the last batch, they weren't up to quality. It's a real shame, but I have very low income so can't afford the resources required to do it properly. It's a shame bigger companies dont want to focus on quality just profit but that is business I guess.

That's sort of what I'm saying... or was thinking... if capital is the other thing keeping you from making more MrSS Superior Fat Laces then let's get you some capital

Yes, not directly, just from things such as the webspace I bought and the branding work I had done, not to mention weeks worth of time/work spent on it. The company have still not explained why they're not the same quality as the last ones.
I weighed the laces to compare and they were around 20-25% less weight - so I think someone along the line thought they could make a saving.
It's even more disappointing as the colours were real sweet.

Would love to see the colors, if even just as a tease... any pics?
