Disclosed is a footwear lacing system comprising a lace (23) attached to a tightening mechanism (25). The lace (23) is threaded through a series of opposing guide members (50) positioned along the top of the foot and ankle portions of the footwear. The lace (23) and guide (50) preferably have low friction surfaces to facilitate sliding of the lace (23) along the guide members (50) so that the lace (23) evenly distributes tension across the footwear member. The tightening mechanism (25) allows incremental adjustment of the tension of the lace (23). A release mechanism allows a user to quickly loosen the lace (23).

L'invention porte sur un système de laçage d'une chaussure comprenant un lacet (23) attaché à un mécanisme de serrage (25). Le lacet (23) est enfilé dans une série d'éléments (50) de guidage opposés, situés le long de la partie supérieure des parties pied et chevilles de l'utilisateur. Le lacet (23) et l'élément de guidage (50)m présentent, de préférence, des surfaces à faible frottement afin de faciliter le glissement du lacet (23) le long des éléments de guidage (50) de sorte qu'il y ait une répartition régulière de la tension générée par le lacet (23) dans le pied de l'utilisateur. Le mécanisme de serrage (25) permet un ajustement progressif de la tension du lacet (23). Un mécanisme de libération permet à l'utilisateur de desserrer rapidement le lacet (23).
