Eddie Aglet made the aglet
Aglets seem pointless but they do have a point which is to stop the laces fraying. Aglets were made back in Roman times so you can't really say who invented them. But back in Roman times they weren't made from plastic. Aglets were made from glass,metal,stone or whatever else could be shaped as necessary. Aglets used to be used in place buttons at the end of ribbons, to help fasten clothes closed. It used to be spelled aiglet. Rich people would have aglets made of precious metals like brass or silver.
Aglets are typically made from plastic or metal, molded or shaped into a small tube that is then attached to the ends of shoelaces. The manufacturing process involves cutting the material into the desired length, heating it for plastic aglets to create a smooth finish, and sometimes adding coatings for durability. In the case of metal aglets, they are often stamped or formed from sheets of metal and may undergo polishing. Finally, the aglets are securely attached to the shoelaces, usually by crimping or adhesive.
aglets were invented to keep the end of your shoelace from fraying
There are literally millions of shoelace aglets that are manufactured every year. This is because most shoes will have at least 6 aglets per shoe.
