You may have noticed those extra holes on your sneakers and wondered what they’re for. Well, it turns out they have a purpose beyond just aesthetics! These additional eyelets are designed to help you create a “heel lock” or “lace lock,” which provides extra support and prevents your foot from sliding around inside the shoe, especially during intense activities like running or hiking.
By using these holes correctly, you can reduce friction, prevent blisters, and ensure your shoes fit more snugly, keeping your foot securely in place. Check out the video below to learn how to use these extra holes effectively and give your feet the support they need!
