Shotta's are much better than Big Laces efforts.

I see Shotta also has the 30mm Tobby-laces. Those are the laces I complained about. They are absolutely shite and impossible to lace without damaging them.

I think stylz had a good place in the usa he used..also KOTF got some quality laces from some place in the usa as well..might be mentioned in this thread or the lace-flip thread
I'll email kotf about them if u want??

I disagree! They are not absolutely shite...(after a lot of research) I believe they're the best fat laces available without manufacturing your own, but they are not great.
Perhaps you received the original fat laces from Big Laces? They were a very weak weave. Or maybe you need to be a bit more gentle lacing them?

The ones I got had a Tobby label around them. I bought those sciences from you Tom, they had black fat laces in them. They were a 100 times better than the fats I got from Biglaces. I'll post some pics. And carefull lacing is not an option. When you slightly rough hands you pull the thread and it can't be prepared. The 20mm's I also bought are a bit better.

Yeah the black ones I got made up, I cant afford to make any more though, you have to order a lot in one go.
I've tried hard and havent found any other fat laces that are better than Tobby XLs, but I've found a lot that are worse!
RE: Laces -
Squeaky - 30-03-10
Okay, here are some pics, noby can't deny that this is absolutely shite:
So you can also sea that they are Tobby's
The 18/20 mm laces are much better as you can see:
So that's why I asked Dave to send me two white pairs of the 18/20 mm ones (to compensate for my crappy order) but he send me two more of those crappy 30mm ones. Dave is a good guy but he lost a customer because of this. English is not my first language but I'm sure my complaint was quite clear.

Those white ones do look like they are made from bawbag hair (prize pls
), maybe you just got unlucky. Here's some other Tobby XLs:
What brand are those 18-20mm ones? They look ok, would you say the weave is tight?

Your prize is my order for some laces.

Shotta, those look A LOT better than my bawbag har-laces (whatever that means).
Maybe I did get unlucky, but you always check your product before shipping them out right?
