I need 54 to 56 inch boot laces, round or oval, prefer gray. I can't find anything. I think I could find weapons grade plutonium in Singapore easier than finding shoelaces.
So far tried: Mustafa, Queensway shoe shops, Takashimaya, Tanglin, Carrefour... no have.

SE, I had the same problems several years ago. It's an exercise in frustration. I ended up ordering them from online. Damn sight easier.

Not sure if they have such long ones, but my daughter just bought some cool laces with skulls on them at Mini Tunes--seriously. They have rows and rows of laces. You migth try Daiso too--they have laces.
