Get ready to skate, with "up"

I believe the answer is:

lace

(Other definitions for lace that I've seen before include "Delicate open-web fabric" , "Flimsy fabric or shoe fasterner" , "Famous play ''Arsenic and Old . . . .''" , "Delicate material" , "Do up (shoe, etc)" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
