Aglets are indeed awesome.
I commend you for finally giving them their just due.
Much better than alternate side of the street parking.

if the aglet factory ever burns down, I'm investing all my money in loafers
because laces will be screwed without them
I was actually going to start a shoelace thread a couple of weeks ago. Aglets are wonderful but it would be better if you could still find a good pair of laces for boots with METAL AGLETS. I bought a set of laces about a month ago and the plastic aglets are already worn off making them useless.
Does anyone know where to get metal tipped 72 inch bootlaces ?

Congratulations on learning to tie your shoelaces. I knew you'd graduate from velcro. Time and persistance has finally paid off for you. :wink:

I get shoes without laces so I don't have to look at those pretentious aglets.
They mock me with their superiority.

Thank you. I found that place too but the aglet sure does look plastic in the picture.

I've been bitten by bum aglets before so I am a little hesitant.

How long before the aglet board character makes an appearance?
