Aglet 1-25-13

The little plastic thing on the end of a shoelace is called an aglet. There are tons of aglets some have designs and some have nothing but clear. High dollar shoes usually have nice aglets of aglet covers as if you tore the cover off you would see nothing but a clear item around the end of a shoelace. No one really knows what an aglet is they just think its a little plastic piece on a shoelace. The people who know what and aglet is are freaking awesome. The Aglet is very important on a shoelace as you can see if you pulled the aglet off your shoe strings go crazy! Then they are insanely frustrating to get back tied and if your shoelace comes out of its slot its very hard to get it to go back through. Aglets are the unknown to most people are huge in the shoe string corporation.
