I hope Tom doesn't mind me violating his laces, but the pure cotton dye's really well too.

Very nice 
How did you dye them, just one pair or...?
– and have you experienced any bleeding from the colour? (probably too soon to tell)

I used a sachet of Dylon stuff, only used a third of the sachet in a small pan but you could easily do half a dozen pairs in one go.
The recommended 45 mins wasn't enough for the colour to get under the plastic tips so i left them over night and they came out really well.
Ran them through the washing machine afterwards and there was no signs of any bleeding when they came out damp so hopefully they should be ok.

Mine arrived today - thanks Tom.

For comparison purposes here's a pair laced with one of MrShoeShotta's vin laces and the OG lace in the other.
Which one is which? You decide . . . The quality is superb.

Looking good G!

Mmmm, they look really nice Tom. Quality stuff! I may order some any time soon. Does your offer for a free pair still stand?

Yo Tom, sorry if I sound dumb, but how do I order some, they don't seem to be on your website...
Do I order them through here via the magic of PM?

Gonna order a couple of pairs, soon, and the black pair question has been answered by the post up above. How much are they?
thanks
Also, how do you lace so perfectly, do you stuff the trainers or something?

Do you mean how much are the dyed ones? If so - I havent been able to find any dye at an affordable price / bulk so you'll have to dye them yourself I'm afraid.
You can get a pack of dylon for around £3.00 and that should do a few pairs at least.
You can buy the plain the laces here -
