I’ve been tying my running shoes like that for the last 35-40 years. Trained and ran 12 marathons and never a problem!
What I will say is. 1. I've never had these issues with my heels slipping or the other problems stated, because I've always had my shoes professionally fitted, 2. I have NEVER done up my shoe laces this way, just the standard way I was taught when I was a wee nipper and 3. Personally, I deliberately DON'T thread my shoe laces at the top eyelet because I prefer free motion from the step-off, can't stand my heels being buried in the back of my shoes.
But on a side-note, the presenter is cute.
My Nike running shoes kept coming off my foot whenever I ran in really fast speeds. So this is really helpful for someone who runs really fast. I get why you wouldn't need this advice. When I'm jogging it fits just right
This was a game changer for me. Thank you Coach Morgan and @therunexperience. 29 miles, 5.7k ft vert today, and my Hokas fit perfectly today. Locked in!
Thank you Coach Morgan for this demo. Your instructions were clear, and simple. I just got a pair of Books in the mail today (never ran in Brooks), and thought they were too small. However, once I did the “heel tap” I had enough space b/w the toe box and my big toe. What a difference these minor iterations make ! 😊
It was the cat for me 💁🏾♀️😂
The runners knot does help a lot, but I wouldn't say it works on every shoe, sometimes the fit of a particular model just doesn't suit your feet 👍🏃
It won’t work on the Nike Adapt BB 2.0 (self-lacing shoes)

That was so cute, I want to get a cat now! I started using the runner's knot last year, and it really does make a major difference in keeping my feet secure, and not moving around. Thank you for this informational, and adorable video!
Lace tying tip: Loop one lace around the other and bring it underneath itself, in the start of the knot (ie. don’t cross the laces over each other, as the first step). Then make your loop and tie around it as you normally would. It keeps laces tied like double knotting, but is easy to untie.
I haven't had issues with my road shoes but on trails, because my shoe strikes the ground at many various & unpredictable angles I've felt some concerning movement within my shoes. I had recently watched this video & yesterday did hill repeats at a park with a lot of roots, rocks, & unsteady gravel so I gave it a try & it felt great. I felt more stable in my shoes, almost like being in a pair of hiking boots. Thanks Coach Morgan.
🤯 thought some level of foot movement was something I’d have to put up with. Tried this knot and it improved an already well fitting shoe. Foot movement kept me from really pushing my pace. Can’t wait to test this on the road. Thank you for the video.
I learned this technique 10 years ago and it helps a lot. It is nice that you are sharing this to people.
This was amazing, and so well-explained. Thank you!!
RUclips taught me the runner's knot a couple years back - definitely a game-changer for some shoes that just wouldn't otherwise work! Glad you're putting it out there as many still don't know about it. What's weird to me is that some running shoes out there are still being made without the extra eyelet. Not many, but they still exist!
That's because the extra eyelet is redundant.
I am so glad that I found this video! I have wide toes and a small heel. As a result, all of my shoes slip at the heel, leading to incessant blisters. This trick really helps, thank you!
Ur smol emmy 😊
I just wanna say thank you! Even when I’m at home on a treadmill my heels would feel HORRIBLE after running. This has fixed my issue entirely ❤
I run a lot because of being in the military. I had pain on my foot so I went to a shoe store that measured my feet, the lady did this method of tieing my shoe and It was so comfortable. I’m back here watching this vid because I forgot how she did it. Glad I found this. Thanks
Thank you for putting this out. I think we have very little demo about the runner's knot and I don't know why. Hopefully, this reaches a lot of runners. This is a game changer when I discovered this.
🤯 Thank you for sharing!!! We will definitely start doing this method! Loved your 🐈🤭
Really does help. I've been doing this for a while. Great video!
The runner's loop. Life-changing!!
My dad thought me about this knot a couple of years ago. It changes everything!
Thank you for the tips coach Morgan your amazing
This was a game changer to say the least! It works for me with both my running shoes and spikes! Thank you for sharing
That's a super smart technique, Coach! Thanks.
It really does make a huge difference. Many thanks
Thanks for the tips! I am going to try this on my next run. I think it’ll help my heel slippage issues.
I learned this trick from my awesome local running store. (Big River Running in St. Louis) It has made such a difference.
A game changer! Thanks coach!
I have used this on shoes that are a little too big. Worked great, secure around the ankle with plenty of room around the rest of the foot 😊
I always wondered what to do with the last holes , so now I finally know. Thank you so much 👍🏻
Just thread your laces through the standard way. This 'fancy' technique ain't gonna make you run faster and it's not going to solve your injuries.
Yep, I've been using the runner's knot for a while now. As long as the laces are long enough (the ones that came with my Sauconys are a bit short), it works great.
A few years ago a shoe store guy showed me this knot and changed my life. I’ve only ran in either brooks and ASICS since then but it has worked for all the shoes I’ve used. I highly recommend if you can use this knot, try it out even if you don’t think you need it, it might help.
Same. Made all the difference once Chad at Front Runner showed this to me!
Brooks and Asics for ever
I am trying this today! Thank you
Thank you for doing a video on this!
I did this on one shoe and left the other how i normally tie it. WOW mind blowing ! I’m never running without my shoes tied this way. Thank u !!!!!
nice shoes & congrats on the 100!
Thanks for sharing. Appreciate it.
Best explanation of this yet
A simple solution to a common problem. Thank you for posting 🙏🏼.
Happy to help
I feel all smug because I’ve been doing this for years! The other thing that I swear by is slathering body glide all over my feet for long runs. It’s like magic. Your cat is a star!
Thank you Coach Morgan, love the kitty 🐱😊
Thanks for sharing that info. I'm trying it out on my next run.
i never knew i needed to see a RUclips video this much!
Thank you so much!
thanks for this tip! my feet are super slim and basically move around in every shoe but this helped me quite a lot! ♥
thank you. keep up the good work.
I never knew of this and the cat was adorable.
Brilliant, thank you for sharing Morgan 💞 🎄Happy Holidays🎄 xx Jesse
Oh my praise girl thank you so much! You rock!
Awesome!! This is new to me!!
Also when you tie your shoes cross them twice instead of once before making your loops. When you do it this way you will find that by doing the extra crossover and then pulling tight, the laces won't loosen before you make your bow. If you only cross them once, as most people do and you did in the video, the laces loosen before making your bow.
I don't know why youtube recommended this but first clip I see and I suscribed 😂.
Coach Morgan...as usual the best :-)
I love be the cat! 😺❤️😂😂😂
They think they are helping 😺
@@philthehatfilms - but of course they are helping .... or something. 😂
Thank u so much
Proper lacing or technques for running shoes.❤❤❤❤
Most welcome 😊
being doing this for years, I'm still surprised how many people don't know this!
No secrets here!

I really thought I was going to learn something new with this video.
This is such great information. Thank you. I’ve been noticing lately that my running shoes just don’t fit right anymore. I’m going to try this.
let us know how it goes!
Thanks for this
Run on! 😊 your cat made me chuckle 🤣
Thanks for the video :)
Awesome! Thanks
Hi...thanks for the great tip on how to tie your shoes, but in 2002 Bruce Fordyce published a book Marathon Runners where he demonstrated 4 different ways to tie your shoes for say blisters or black toenails...I totally agree that the way you tie your running shoes makes a big difference!
Awesome thanks
U saved my life thank you
Wow! Thanks.
Thank You, Winona Ryder!
Thank you
Thanks
The outtake at the end 🤣❤️
Wow! I wondered what these extra holes were for! Always nice to have a cat to help out with these things😅
How did you know? I was JUST trying to figure this out...trying this out on my run today! Thanks, Coach Morgan!
we’re always listening👂🏼
Runners knot also helps me to have my longer hikes easier. The extra eyelet also has its name of saying heel lock. Even if I don't have a heel lock, I still make the heel lock out of the existing knot. But heck when there are arch supported shoes and I do this. It feels definetly annoying and weird at same time.
It works for my shoes! One size down was a bit tight, one size up and there is slippage. This method had just solved my problem.
I use the Lock Laces brand when the runner's knot isn't quite getting the job done with heel lock. I have a pair on my Vihos and Superior 4.0s. They help give a great hold.
Great, thankls! I never knew what that hole was for.
Hey wow you told a great way
Arrogant 4 year old me thinking i knew how to tie my shoes before the other kids. 🤣🤣 my entire life has been a lie. Is Santa even real??
Absolutely, completely agree. I've been a runner for over 30 years and I've always tied my laces the traditional way. Never had any issues with my heels slipping or whatever other things the presenter has stated.
Great video and great info. Also, you’re really pretty! Thanks!!
One of my cats also loves shoelaces, only gym/running shoes tho lol
Thank u sister
the most important thing is to free the toes and skirt the ankle moderately tightly to prevent slippage. so the ideal tie is an A or an inverted V shape along the laces.
🏃 thanks 👍
Brooo game changer as soon as I stood up 💀.
Yea!
For once, I’m watching one of your videos and I’m not learning anything 😀
It’s particularly useful when trail running and, in any other situations, you don’t need to tie the shoes so tight
Cats love playing with shoelaces. Same with my two little kittens at home🐱✌️😂
I love you❤ thank you 🙏
I've known of this trick but have been stubborn and not done it. But now I wanna see if it helps out with muscle soreness.
And yeah, my right heel slips around in the shoe unless I tie my shoes pretty deliberately.
On some of my shoes I have caterpy non-tie laces (not affiliated - I found them at the exhibition of the Amsterdam marathon 2 years ago, and bought a pair.. tried them out and went back the same day to buy 3 more pairs for my other shoes) and on others I use the runners knot.. I only get blisters on my toes on the shoes that are "my size" so I usually have to buy a full size bigger than normal, and that's with absolutely every brand and shoe that I've tried so far.
edit: if there are any strings attached, the cat will play with them.. (same here)
Great 👍
This was shown to me the very first time I got shoes fitted :)
Gotta love the runners knot 💯
Do you love Morgan's blue leggings?
@@jasonmyers8600 Fa Sho
Interesting, my altra shoes are laced with the last lace going into the eyelet instead of outwards like in your video, so the bunny ears end up on the inside of the shoe instead of the outside. I'm sure it would still work?
I've got the other problem, I volunteer at a Cat Shelter, how do I get the cats to stop untying my sneakers? LOL, love the advice!
Altra! Those are my new favorite shoes. I have duck feet and those are the only shoes ( aside from barefoot shoes) that don’t squish my toe box.
I used to have knee pain, I started to run with Altra a couple of years ago. I run 2600 km (1600 miles) this year (and 72000 m of vert), I do not go back to regular shoes. And just before XMAS my 8th pair of Altra arrived today in the mail (Olympus 4)... can't wait to give them a try.
@@YTSuxAxx I have caveman feet then :p
@@YTSuxAxx If you’ve ever seen a duck foot, that’s pretty much what my feet look like. I have an extremely wide toe box, because I ran around barefoot till I was like 10, and a very narrow heel. Also, “modern” is subjective :p
@@YTSuxAxx Coach Morgan has narrow feet and they work great, they’re not wide throughout, they’re actually the shape of a foot 🦶🏼
Yes. Altra is the way.
I have a pair of the ON’s and they are my favorite pair of running shoes. I see you wear a diff shoe than that but you a pair in this video. What did you think of them?
Been doing this for 40 years 😉
Always ask an oldie
Love how you push the cat out 😂

Aw, I love cats!
do you only do this for running shoes? what about other casual shoes that has the same one extra holes on it?
Love the cat lol!!!!
I was in my 2nd-ish year of running before I found out. About 7 years in now. It certainly helped, especially for my narrow heels. But it does not work for all shoes.
