It’s a wrap! - Yanko Design

rolling_eight_shoelacer_1

I’ve effectively made the shift to non-laced shoes. Tying shoelaces is just something I don’t want to do anymore, but for the people who still like their shoes with their laces, the Rolling 8 allows you to wear your shoes without having to know how to tie your laces. The design does tend to be on the slightly conspicuous side, since it stays on your shoes, holding the laces together. However its quirky design, if paired with quirky footwear, would look great, don’t you think?!

The Rolling 8 won the Red Dot Design Award in the year 2015.
