    I'm a 43-year old fart and it's thanks to you that I've learned that I've been making the mistake of tying a granny knot, which led to laces coming undone during my runs. I used to do right-over-left for both starting & finishing knots.
    Going to start with left-over-right and finish as usual. Your explanation is so clear, precise and easy to understand. Love your website and channel. Thanks a ton. I'm pretty confident your knot techniques will make my runs a lot more pleasant.

      Thanks for you kind words, Jay - and for telling me a bit about your old technique and how you've adapted it to avoid the “Granny Knot”. I'm confident that your running will be a lot less stressful for the next 43-odd years!

    This two-and-a-half minute long video has been a bigger help for tying shoelaces than Mom and Grandpa ever were.
    Kinda wish I came across this video sooner, because I pretty much had to rely on elastic laces and getting other people to tie my laces for me.

      Please check that you're tying the *whole* knot as I've shown. If you're doing a right-over-left Starting Knot (the opposite of mine), this will form a "Granny Knot", which comes loose just as you've described.

    • @ProfShoelace
      @ProfShoelace  4 года назад +1

      One tip when untying is to only ever pull *one* of the loose ends, never both. That way, if the knot does decide to jam up on you, it can more easily be picked apart than if you'd pulled *both* ends, which jams much more rightly.

    What is your opinion of the "Double-Bunny Ear Knot" where you feed it under and then over twice on the finish of the left side? I tried that and it seemed to create a very strong shoe-lace knot. Maybe it is also known by another name. Your website is super-informative and fun!

    • @ProfShoelace
      @ProfShoelace  4 года назад

      If you feed under and over twice on the same side, whether that be the left side or the right side, the result is an almost identical knot to the "Turquoise Turtle Shoelace Knot", which is indeed very secure:

    • @ProfShoelace
      @ProfShoelace  5 лет назад

      That's a good question - with no easy answer. People use different lacings on high boots for different reasons. Some are chosen for speed of tightening boots (eg. Double Helix or Quick Tight), some for extra flexibility of heavy boots (eg. Army or Hiking/Biking), some for extra rigidity on hiking boots (eg. Ladder or Spider Web). Personally, I go for Over Under Lacing:

      You're welcome. Whether you're 8 or 88, this shoelace knot works fine.

    Hi, if I tie the shoes like in this movie, they will be properly tied ?

    • @ProfShoelace

      Correct, this forms a perfectly valid shoelace knot.

      Did my video help? If not, maybe try my website, which has step-by-step diagrams and instructions.

    This is how i learned to tie my shoes in kindergarden, could not learn it the proper way

      It's a wonderful alternative that most kids find easier to learn.

    There is a much faster, and easier method to do this.

      You probably mean my “Ian Knot”! True, this video shows the older, slower way. It's helpful for those who want to try different techniques.

    I used this as a child, but my father used another knot, so switched because I wanted to use an adult knot.

      Probably a good move in practice. Although technically the Two Loop Shoelace Knot is just as good as the One Loop Shoelace Knot, in real life, those who do use this knot invariably get teased for using a "kiddie's knot". Such is life.

      Sorry you're finding it difficult. Maybe try my "Ian Knot", which is probably a better alternative anyway:

      No sweat, Lauren - everyone's different. Some people prefer the "Standard Shoelace Knot", some people prefer my "Ian Knot". Considering that all three form the same finished knot, you should perhaps try one of the others to see if they suit you better.
