I had the same thing happen to me. I used my awl tool from my stringer, and poked a hole near the lacing has broke. I tried tying the lace with the broken lace system, bad idea, and it just felt extremely weird on my foot. Hope that helps!

Those shoes are just about toast anyway, unless you want to grate your toes off. I'd just move on to a new pair. Now, if the laces broke in a month and the shoes were in great shape I'd look to send them back as defective.

How many hours do you play in a month?

Those are some grainy old courts btw.

My honest advice?

Next time buy from TW!

I.e. when my first shoe lace broke in less then a week, they've send me a free replacement.

Since then I'm much more careful tying those feeble shoe laces and if one breaks, I just sew it back on.

Second, whenever the thread just starts to get a little bald (i.e. outside/right of the toes area on my right foot), I also get a free replacement from them, under the 6 months warranty. No need to wait for a whole or break them completely like you did...

GL!

No way Jose.

Vapors have to traction and for sure they don't last longer, especially if you are heavy and try to move aggressively.
