Shoelace belts have probably been around since shoelaces were invented. They were originally a product of necessity: you lose your regular belt, you're short on time, so you grab an old shoe, yank out the lace and floss it through your beltloops. Bingo.
Possibly the first famous person to wear a shoelace belt was skateboarder Rodney Mullen, thus making shoelace belts popular with skateboarders. Now, all sorts of people are wearing shoelace belts including hip hop star, Wiz Khalifa.
Companies such as Panasaya Clothing are even making shoelace belt made from laces specifically designed to be used as belts so they won't stretch, like normal shoelaces.
