Randy’s Marathon Huarache Tying Style

Randy Kriell's huaraches running sandal tying

Randy Kreill is an ultra runner who loves his Xero Shoes.

This is the tying style he came up with for his races.

First, a few tying tips and notes:


Tying the Lace knot:

This is the knot we most commonly use, especially with our 100% polyester laces.


The “Lace Bead”:

This is the smallest “knot” you can make for your Xero Shoes.


Tying a Figure-8 knot:

If you have our original laces with the nylon core, you’ll want to use this knot.
