Recently I bought my first pair of running shoes in maybe 4 years. The Asics Evo Ride 3. They're great. Cushioned. Yes. But more importantly light. As I miss the old super-light racing flats of the 80s.

To make my Asics Evo Ride 3s even better for triathlon I put on one of my pairs of Tinley lace locks. I got my first pair from Total Fitness in Swindon at the end of 1988. I probably had them until the plastic wore out.

Having these dangling from your Londons or Mariahs in the 1980s would certainly distinguish you as a triathlete with some class.

Now I’ve got two pairs. A yellow pair that was a present from my brother a few years ago. And some orange ones that I bought on ebay recently.

Hear a bit more about lace locks and Tinley Performance Wear in this episode.
