While many medieval garments appear to have lacing, it's not always clear whether the lacing is going through holes or eyelets in the garments or whether they are on small metal rings that are attached to the garments.
The links below provide images that show lacing rings used on a garment; use a close-up, detailed view to get a better image of the lacing rings.
