Step Into the Brand Energy of the “A” With Atlanta Custom Shoelaces

Atlanta custom shoelaces from Laced Up give your business, team, or organization a way to put that same energy into something people actually wear. Since 2012, we've built premium custom shoelaces with woven and printed designs, durable materials, and full Pantone color matching for brands across the country who want promotional merchandise that gets noticed instead of tossed in a drawer.

RevelXP, which creates premium gameday experiences for college sports programs across the country, came to us with a specific challenge: a surprise-and-delight kit for all 259 of their employees, timed to land midway through the college football season. They wanted custom socks and laces that visually complemented each other, packaged together in a way that felt intentional rather than thrown together.

We delivered the full combo with custom packaging, and then took the logistics off their plate entirely, shipping individual kits to employees spread across 28 different states. The same program is now available to pull from for future new hire onboarding, giving RevelXP a repeatable, branded welcome experience without the fulfillment headache.

From sneakers laced up on the BeltLine to branded gear handed out at downtown events, Atlanta organizations use our custom shoelace program to personalize their identity and extend their brand well past the moment it was handed out.

How Can These 5 Custom Shoelace Styles Can Put Your Atlanta Brand a Step Ahead?

Not every custom shoelace style fits every brand, and the right pick depends on your audience, your colors, and how loud you want your branding to be. Here are five styles Atlanta brands, teams, and sneakerheads are using to personalize their kicks and put their logo into daily rotation.

Lace Style	Example	Impact
Printed Lettering/Logo		Printed lettering puts your logo, name, or message directly on the lace for maximum visibility with every step. It's the most direct way for Atlanta businesses to turn a simple shoelace into a walking piece of promotional merchandise.
Gradient		Gradient laces blend two or more of your brand colors along the length of the lace for a look that shifts as you move. This style works well for Atlanta brands with bold, multi-color identities who want a custom shoelace that stands out without saying a word.
Splatter/Cement		Splatter and cement print designs bring a street-ready texture that pairs naturally with Atlanta's deep sneaker culture and streetwear scene. The irregular patterns keep your brand colors visible while giving every pair a one-of-a-kind look.
Bejeweled/Golden Goose		This style borrows from high fashion, adding rhinestone accents or metallic-finish aglets that give any sneaker a premium, eye-catching look. It's a popular pick for Atlanta boutiques and fashion brands that want their custom shoelaces to double as a style statement.
Hoodie Strings (similar to shoelaces)		Hoodie strings use the same materials and printing process as our shoelaces, making them an easy add-on for brands that already produce custom apparel. Atlanta teams and schools use them to match their laces and hoodies for one cohesive look.

9 Industries Across Atlanta Putting Our Custom Shoelaces to Work

Custom shoelaces work across far more industries than most people expect, since any business that wants to be remembered needs branded merchandise people actually wear. Here are nine industries across Atlanta already putting our custom shoelaces to work.

Industry	Impact
Schools	Schools and academic programs use custom shoelaces for spirit wear, athletics, and fundraising events that build pride from day one. Sacred Heart School of San Francisco is a strong example of an institution using branded accessories to give students a wearable piece of school identity.
Energy/Oil & Gas	Energy companies operating in and around Atlanta use branded shoelaces in employee welcome kits and safety campaigns to reinforce company culture in a tangible way. Vopak, a global leader in tank storage and logistics, is exactly the kind of operation that understands the value of a branded detail that travels with its workforce across facilities and events.
Marketing/Websites	Marketing agencies and digital brands use custom shoelaces as standout giveaways at conferences and client pitches where generic swag gets left behind. WordPress has leveraged branded merchandise at events worldwide, and custom laces fit that same philosophy of being practical, on-brand, and memorable.
Sneakerheads	Atlanta's sneaker community runs deep, and custom laces are one of the fastest ways to refresh a silhouette or add a collector detail that drives excitement. Gameday Swagger knows that culture well, since their focus on game-day style and sneaker identity makes custom laces a natural fit for fans who care about every detail.
Sports	From high school athletics to college programs, custom laces are a go-to for building team unity and adding a polished detail to any uniform. University of Dayton athletics is the kind of program that understands how a small branded detail, right down to the laces, helps build a cohesive look across an entire roster.
Wellness	Wellness brands, spas, and health-focused organizations use custom shoelaces in gift-with-purchase promotions and retreat welcome kits that connect their values to everyday wear. Spafinder, one of the most recognized names in the global wellness industry, represents the caliber of brand that knows a thoughtfully designed accessory communicates quality before a customer reads the label.
Pharma/Health/Medical	Health and pharmaceutical companies use branded laces in conference giveaways and patient outreach programs to create a wearable connection to their mission. Averitas, a pharmaceutical company that has partnered with Laced Up for sneaker gifting suites, represents the kind of health-focused brand that understands how a branded accessory builds trust at every touchpoint.
Fashion	Atlanta's growing fashion and boutique retail scene uses custom shoelaces to differentiate product lines and add a premium detail that keeps customers coming back. JSUPCO brings that same energy to their brand, using custom laces as a wearable extension of their identity that fans want to show off.
Fitness	Gyms, training studios, and fitness brands across Atlanta use custom shoelaces to build community identity and reward members with practical, on-brand gear. Barebells put that strategy into action on their national college campus tour, ordering thousands of custom-colored shoelaces matched to school colors at stops across the country.

7 FAQs That Settle Atlanta's Top Questions on Custom Shoelaces

Ordering custom shoelaces for the first time comes with a handful of practical questions, and we'd rather answer them upfront than leave you guessing. Here are the questions Atlanta brands and organizations ask most before placing an order.

What's the minimum order quantity for Atlanta custom shoelace orders?
All custom shoelace orders require a minimum of 200 pairs, which keeps quality and pricing consistent regardless of where you're located. Volume pricing breaks are available at higher quantities, so larger Atlanta orders see a better cost per pair.
How long does production take from design approval to delivery?
Standard production runs 5 to 6 weeks from the point your design is approved. For certain designs, we can produce faster (2-3 weeks). If you're working toward a specific Atlanta event date, letting us know early helps us confirm what's realistic for your timeline.
Can you match our exact brand or team Pantone colors?
Yes, we work with Pantone color standards to match your brand's exact color profile on every order. Bring your Pantone codes when you place your order, or our team can help you find the right ones.
What file format works best for submitting a logo or artwork?
Vector files like AI, EPS, or PDF give the sharpest print results on custom shoelaces. If you don't have a vector file, let us know during your initial inquiry and we'll walk through your options.
Is custom packaging available for retail or gifting?
Custom packaging can be added to any order and is a popular choice for retail launches, gift-with-purchase campaigns, and event giveaways. It adds a premium layer to the unboxing experience that makes the whole package feel intentional.
Can we request a sample before committing to a full production run?
Sample options can be discussed during your initial project consultation based on your design and quantity. This gives Atlanta brands a chance to see materials and colors in person before committing to a larger order.
Is rush production available for tight Atlanta event deadlines?
Rush timelines can sometimes be accommodated depending on the scope of the order and how far out your event date is. The earlier you let us know about a tight deadline, the more options we have to make it work.

The Soul of Atlanta: Stories, Streets, & the People Who Built It

Atlanta carries a cultural weight that goes far beyond its skyline. The Sweet Auburn district, preserved today within the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Park, was where Dr. King was born and raised among Black-owned businesses and churches that shaped his vision of the civil rights movement. Walking Auburn Avenue today still means walking through that history.

The Atlanta BeltLine has reshaped how the city moves and gathers, turning a 22-mile former railroad corridor into a connected network of trails, parks, and public art. It links neighborhoods like Old Fourth Ward, Inman Park, and Reynoldstown in a way that's become part of daily life for thousands of residents.

Art and ambition show up just as clearly at the High Museum of Art, home to more than 20,000 works spanning African art, American painting, and photography. Between its civil rights legacy, its creative class, and a music scene that's shaped hip hop for decades, Atlanta has built an identity that's entirely its own.
