Colourful Shoelace Buckle for Sneakers
A 3 cm by 1 cm cast zinc alloy lace buckle supplied in painted colours such as pink, yellow, purple, black, blue, green and orange as well as gold, rose gold, antique brass and black nickel. Painted colours are what sneaker colourways actually need, since a plated metal tone cannot match a coloured upper. Minimum 1,000 pieces at 500 per colour.
The sneaker part: a flat lace buckle in painted colourway shades rather than metal tones.
