BRCĒ Laces
The worlds only shoelaces that never come untied due to activity
As seen on Shark Tank - March 4, 2026
BRCĒ (pronounced brace) is a performance material startup known for developing shoelaces that won’t come untied during athletic activity. Founded in 2024, the company quickly gained traction in the sports performance market with its patented composite material technology designed to keep laces secure during movement.
From April–September 2024, I worked with BRCĒ as the lead designer & creative partner, helping develop the brand’s visual identity, athlete marketing content, photography, social media assets, and early product launches.
