ABSTRACT:
This present invention relates to a shoelace binder 10 that is designed to prevent a tied shoelace from coming loose. The present invention is comprised of a cover 16 and a base 18. The cover has a body 20 that has a front face 22 and a rear face 24. Two pins, a first pin 26 and a second pin 28, are attached to the front face and the rear face of the cover so that two ends 30 32 of each pin are attached to the front face and the rear face, respectively. The base has two flanges 34 36, each flange having a hole about the middle portion of the flange. Each of the flange holes 38 40 is used to grip a shoelace end 42 46 securely when a shoelace tip 44 48 is inserted into that flange hole, and reinserted into the flange hole from the opposite side after the shoelace has wrapped around one of the pins. An improvement to the invention can be made by the use of elastic materials for the cover.
