Try both and tie knife lanyards with the set of laces you don't like!  But IMO I'd go with brown!

[Finkster]

^^ I would keep the orig. yellow laces - perfect combo with the olive/brown shoes

(or brown leather laces)

Like RW's slogan I've seen somewhere:

'Red Wings are the perfect shoes for looking busy while not doing anything.'

I want to get the speed hooks for the top 3 spots replacing the eyelets. Looking for a local SA or surrounding area cobbler. Anyone have a recommendation for where/who?

[mikebarhoot]

Now with "Speed Hook" technology!
