These are new laces made for Victorian and Edwardian boots or shoes. They are made of polyester and stretch a bit and were made specifically for Edwardian and Victorian boots but would also fit other boots. The tips fit the original boots and shoes. They are at least 68\" long which accommodates taller boots and also allows for additional lace so youcan utilize all the holes when actually worn. These were also made in the US. The brown laces are a tiny bit wider than the black and white laces but when stretched are narrow and the tan laces are a little thicker than the others apparently due to the type of material used for that color but do stretch to 3/16\" and fit the holes in the boots. If you need another color, then would suggest dying the white laces. Can also discount quantity purchases - contact me for further information and will create another listing for quantities. The black laces measure 70\". The price is per pair. I have heard that people who need corset laces buy several pairs for vintage corsets. The grey laces are a light grey and measure 58-59\".
