Dumb question, but does anyone know where sells shoelaces in Riyadh? I've looked in Panda and AlSadhan, local baqalas, and a couple of shoe shops, without luck.

Colleagues say they just buy a new pair of shoes if a lace breaks, but it seems a bit silly for the sake of a couple of pieces of string.

Thanks.

I get mine from Carrefour, northern ring road. And they sell shoes.

Thanks, will check that out.

Hell's bells, haven't you asked one of your work colleagues? They are sure to sell shoe laces in the local souq.

Yes, those who wear shoes (rather than sandals or slippers) say they just buy a new pair of shoes if a lace breaks - either they're paid too much, or I have a bit much Scot in me
