Rothco Zipper Inserts for 9-Eyelet Lace-Up Boots

Zipper inserts for 9-eyelet lace-up boots

Rothco Zipper Boot Laces are a set of two zipper inserts designed to make traditional lace-up boots quicker to put on and remove. Each insert attaches to the boot’s existing eyelets using the laces. Once the fit has been adjusted, the boots can be opened and closed using the zips.

The inserts are designed for Rothco Combat Boots and Jungle Boots with nine pairs of eyelets. They may also be used with other 9-eyelet lace-up boots when the position and spacing of the eyelets are compatible. We therefore recommend comparing the boot’s lacing arrangement with the product images before ordering.

Construction and material

Each insert features a central zip, metal-reinforced eyelets and stitched edges. The material is black PVC synthetic leather. The construction allows the fit of the boots to remain adjustable with the laces, while the zips provide quicker everyday opening and closing.

Fitting the inserts

1. Position the zipper insert between the boot’s two rows of eyelets.
2. Thread the lace alternately through the eyelets of the boot and the insert.
3. Adjust the lacing until the boot fits as required.
4. Use the zip when putting on or removing the boot.

The inserts are compatible with products including the Rothco G.I. Type Combat Boots.

Supplied as a pair. The boots shown in the images are not included.
