I'd like to find some way to either buy waterproof shoelaces or waterproof shoelaces myself. Do you have any advice?

Is there anything in particular you're hoping to do that's particularly water-resistant? Maybe I could help you with an alternative?

I live in Portland, Oregon, and it's very wet all winter. I go hiking, sometimes on multi-day hikes, and my shoelaces always get so soaked they start to mess up the waterproofness of my shoes.

Sure, I think I might be able to help!  I think I can get you some thin waterproof covers that will act like an extra layer of protection for the shoes.  They'll just be a layer of rubber that goes over your existing shoelaces.  It’ll make a lot more sense if you can also email me a photo of your shoe, and I’ll take a look and give you a recommendation.

I see. What about wrapping your shoes with plastic bags or plastic film, something like that?
