There can't be two without three The third place on the podium of shiny MANHATTAN shoelaces goes to the bronze shoelaces. Together with gold shoelaces and silver shoelaces, these also form the elite of original and daring accessories. They may be in a third place, but trust us: these thirds will be at the top of your look. In Sliwils we make our shoelaces with the bias technique, a type of cut that gives them more resistance.
