shoelace
Eyelet-threaded fastener
A shoelace is a cord or string threaded through eyelets to fasten a shoe snugly to the foot.
Learning to tie shoelaces is a childhood milestone.
Your shoelace is untied.
To do something on a shoestring suggests operating with minimal resources—a shoestring being even less substantial than a proper lace.
