I don't know, but they're definitely different from any laces I have found for sale online.  Rainbo Sports can order the laces from Jackson for you.

By feel, I'd say cotton.

Thanks! I didn't like them, and I wanted to order white laces that aren't made of the same material. :) Do you think it's a blend? I heard Riedell is a cotton-poly blend, and that seemed to fray less.

They are nylon/cotton.

Thanks sarahspins!

How do you know what material these laces are by feel? My new pink laces don't feel like the Jackson ones at all -- they feel synthetic. Is there any difference in feel between nylon and polyester, cotton-nylon and cotton-polyester, etc?
