These sell as a set of 3, sets of vintage black shoelaces in original packaging, marked “Bruce Brand – Double Strength” and “Made in Japan – Best Quality.” These laces measure approximately 27 inches and feature a classic flat weave, ideal for dress shoes, oxfords, or vintage-style footwear.
These are new old stock (NOS), still neatly wrapped in their original red paper bands. The bold mid-century packaging and “Made in Japan” marking suggest production likely dating from the 1950s–1970s, when Japanese-made goods were widely exported and known for quality craftsmanship.
A great find for vintage shoe restoration, collectors, or anyone wanting an authentic retro detail.
