maybe a bit controversial, probably not but lace code is alive and well and i find it weird that some people throw a fit over that.
(please keep in mind this blog is written by a German from a German perspective and with German lace code in mind, red =/= Nazi here)
the only people I've ever really seen throwing a fit over lace code still being taken seriously is Nazis trying to signal their allegiances without having to live in fear which is absolutely fucking stupid because Nazis aren't safe and shouldn't feel safe. especially not in a community that is literally built on leftist politics. and the other people is people who for some reason feel like they cant just wear for example red laces without being a communist or anarchist, like that's fine. antifascists wear them too!!
lace code is alive and well and is getting used daily by many people, whenever I've asked people if their shoelaces have meanings if they have different coloured laces in their boots it was rather "yeah its my favorite colour" or "yeah its lace code" and both is totally valid especially since in Germany or at least were i am the only suspicious colour is white, or white paired with literally anything else.
i personally wear a pink and a red pair of shoelaces and i used to wear red and blue or pink and blue, I'm currently looking to extend my shoe lace collection but its extremely difficult to find coloured shoelaces IRL so i might just dye a few at this point
oh yeah and here's a little cutout from my reworked lace code blog from my banned spacehey acc (rip) I'm probably gonna republish this and then also throw it onto here it has a bit of history and stuff
