An improved shoelace having two tying sections with an elongated stringing section disposed therebetween. Each tying section has a larger diameter and lower density than the elongated stringing section so as to permit the stringing section to smoothly run through a plurality of string through holes of a shoe with less friction against the rims of the through holes in use, resulting in the advancement of durability of a shoelace in one aspect and the facility of tying of a shoelace into a butterfly knot in another aspect.

[ I claim:] [1.] A shoelace having sections of different diameters and densities, comprising:a first tying section at one end of the shoelace, the first tying section having a first diameter and a first density over its entire length and terminating in a first squeezed cap;a second tying section at the other end of the shoelace, the second tying section also having the first diameter and the first density over its entire length and terminating in a second squeezed cap;an elongated stringing section disposed between and connecting the first and second tying sections, the stringing section having a second diameter and a second density over its entire length;wherein the first diameter is larger than the second diameter and the first density is lower than the second density such that when the shoelace is used with a shoe having a plurality of string through holes, the second diameter is smaller than that of the string through holes and the elongated stringing section runs smoothly through the plurality of string through holes when the shoelace is pulled tight and knotted at the first and second tying sections.
