ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for lacing and securing a shoe onto the foot using an elongated lace and the five spaced apart holes in the shoe's collar on each side of the shoe's tongue. A two part fastening clip includes a flat rectangular clip base having spaced apart eyelets and an elongated slot and a clip lever designed to mate in hinged relation with the clip base by insertion of an enlarged cylindrical edge portion of the clip lever into the elongated slot of the clip base and also having spaced apart eyelets. The shoe lace passes through the shoe's holes on opposite sides of the tongue, through the eyelets in the clip base, through the eyelets in the base, through the eyelets in the clip lever, and finally through the adjacent hole in the shoe collar. Then the two ends of the lace are securely tied together leaving sufficient slack to permit the foot to be inserted into the shoe. The clip base and the clip lever are hingedly joined together by inserting the clip lever's enlarged cylindrical edge into the slot in the clip base and the clip lever is secured flat against the clip base by locking means, thereby securing the laced shoe onto the foot.
