    Wanted laces and toggle for liners

    My friend skis Scott touring boots and they use very thin laces like wires and a very small toggle. I have called around locally to buy some and can't find any.
    If you have some in your shop or maybe you took them out or have something similar I am interested.
    I just can't tie the liner tight enough behind the shell on my F1
    Thanks

    still looking. I might take apart an old pair of Salomon trail runners, but I don't see how to tie knots in the the wire...

    Do you mean Boa wires?

    Yes those but without the ratchet. Scott boots have a very small toggle so you don't have a big hard plastic thing between the liner tongue and shell.
    Or any option.

    I bought these "wheeled cord lock stoppers" off Amazon for that exact purpose that sound like what you want except they are for paracord not a very thin cord. Presume there are probably smaller/thinner ones available there too if you searchClick image for larger version.

    ^^^ this is what comes on Zipfits and it’s pretty unobtrusive under the shell, IMO.

    Similar. I was looking to replicate the ones on my zipfits but these are bigger and appear weaker but have worked just fine.

    Probably a dumb suggestion but if you are looking for thin, strong line consider Spectra kiteboarding line.
