Big Laces was started by Cheryl and Dave Clayton as “Tha Lace Place” back in 2006, primarily as an eBay venture to earn extra cash. Without any initial business plan and very little fancy marketing, the company has grown significantly but still remains family owned and run.

“We’re not a big corporate machine and believe in good, honest customer service and bringing a smile to people’s faces. Those w

ho buy from us almost always return, and we hope this is due to the fact that we prioritise customer satisfaction above all else.

In our time as retailers we’ve seen quite a few similar looking companies (some even borrowed all our photos without asking!) come and go and can only think this is due to the fact that you won’t make millions selling shoelaces! We love what we do and we thank all our customers for their continued support.”

What do they offer?

On top of our wide range their Fat, Flat, Round and Super Fat Laces they offer a range of Retro Sweatband Sets and Beanies and a 5 Star Customer Service experience!

And as you can see from their feedback - they have over 40,000 happy eBay customers.&nbsp;They also run a Bruce Springsteen fan club and have, for many years, been running trips to see him in concert in Europe and the U.S.A. Initially they did this in conjunction with other travel agents but in 2002 they set up their own travel agency (Jump Travel Ltd.) in order to improve their quality of service.&nbsp;They seem to have succeeded as they take 1000&rsquo;s of people away each year and have many regular customers who travel with them to many shows.&nbsp;As well as Bruce they have also organised trips to see Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, U2, Morrissey, Brian Wilson, Eric Clapton, Tom Waits, The Who and many more in recent years.
