Product Overview
Replacing worn boot laces is also an opportunity to carry a little extra utility. Rothco Paracord Boot Laces use 550 lb test strength paracord with a seven-strand core, giving your footwear a heavy-duty replacement lace that can double as cordage when an unexpected need arises. They’re suited to tactical, hiking, and work boots, including the boots you wear for airsoft field days.
The paracord construction makes these more than a conventional footwear accessory. While their everyday job is keeping your boots laced, the cord can be removed and repurposed for tasks such as tying loose equipment together or making a temporary camp repair. That secondary use is helpful when you’re away from your usual supplies, though using the laces as cordage means taking them out of service on your boots.
Finished ends for easier lacing
Reinforced plastic tips keep the cord ends contained and help prevent fraying. They also give you a defined end to guide through your boot’s eyelets, making replacement less fiddly than threading unfinished cord. It’s a small detail that matters both when you first install the laces and when you need to rethread them later.

Before choosing a length, measure a lace from your current boots if its fit works well for you. Allow enough length for your preferred lacing pattern and a comfortable knot; boot height alone doesn’t tell you how much lace you’ll need.
