I agree. Terrific idea.

Silk laces seem to be just a touch harder to find than Unicorns nowadays.

I'd settle for a good source of black or brown waxed laces. One can usually cadge a few replacements from shoemakers, but there has to be a source where one can buy in volume.

So would I. Not too long ago, there was a fine little factory in Rhode Island, but it succumbed to the onslaught of cheaper goods from abroad.
