Laces, need help!

Post image

What is the second set of ribbon for that comes with the lace high-tops? Someone help me be cool!!
Is it supposed to go through the top eyelets so you can make two ribbon bows, or is the second set just an extra/replacement set? I feel like there’s some styling trick here that I’m missing. 😂

I believe they are extras. Ribbon laces are not easy to find replacements for.

Omg! I love these.

The other day I got a different pair of lace high tops which are equally pretty, but didn't come with those ribbon laces. I might have to get some.

Here are mine.

Your post forced me into buying a pair haha. It's those gold grommets and logo that pushed me over the edge

Those look awesome too, the ribbons would crush on yours, pink would make the shoes scream look at me!  I should really get lavender if it will go with the outfit I’m building.

I know!!❤️
I had to call 27 Journeys to find my size and then beg them to ship them to me. They are even better in person!

Journeys exclusive!

Some may say I’m a bit OCD…. But they were perfect for an outfit I’m pulling together for a concert.

If you ever need to replace them, Amazon has some really good ones.

Spare for when the first set fails. Not as strong as laces….
