How to Lace Your Bróga Shoes
Support. Security. No More Tape.
Bróga shoes are designed differently—because dancers deserve better.
Our unique lacing system is built to give you a secure, comfortable fit that stays put without the need for double tape or wrapping laces under your foot.
Here’s exactly how to lace your Bróga shoes for the best feel, performance, and support.
What Not to Do
-
Don’t wrap your laces under the shoe
It reduces support and damages the sole over time.
-
Don’t tape around your arch
Bróga’s design makes this unnecessary.
-
Don’t overtighten the toe area
You need space for natural toe spread and comfort.
Step-by-step
Bróga Lacing Guide
1. Start from the Bottom
Thread the lace evenly through the first set of eyelets at the toes. Make sure both sides are equal in length.
2. Criss-Cross Upwards
Lace through each set of eyelets in a criss-cross pattern, pulling the laces snug (but not tight) as you go. This gives gentle but secure hold across the top of your foot.
3. Secure the Arch
At the middle of the foot, cross the laces again and pull firmly to hug the arch. This is where your Bróga support kicks in—keeping the shoe in place without over-tightening.
4. Thread the Side Eyelets
Instead of wrapping your laces under your arch, thread the laces through the side eyelets on the outside of each shoe—just near the midfoot, pulling them gently upwards. This creates a secure hold across the arch without any uncomfortable pressure under the foot.
