Lacing Technique:
1. The lace is run diagonally (grey section) and emerges from the bottom left and the top right eyelets.
2. The top (blue) end of the lace is zig-zagged from the top set of eyelets down to the middle eyelets in a similar
manner to the Shoe Shop Lacing.
3. The bottom (yellow) end of the lace is similarly zig-zagged from the bottom set of eyelets up to the middle
eyelets.
FEATURES:
 Unusual layout
Neat appearance
 Specific use only
NOTE:
This method is not really meant to be used on normal shoes, boots or sneakers, although it can be used on them to
achieve an unusual look (such as shown in the first picture at left). It's specifically intended for riding boots
(as shown in the second picture) in which the part that is tightened and loosened is at the middle of the
boot (near the ankle). This means that they lace up from both ends and fasten in the middle. On boots such as these,
the sides come completely together, hiding all the angled underlying sections of shoelace.
This method is shown on the Dehner Boot site for lacing their 9 Eyelet Field Boots:
