I recently learned how to tie my shoes all by myself
protokatie:
I must presume I have always used the reef knot as I have never had any problems loading MDF into the back of a pick-up, but I do know a few people who are constantly retying, so I guess they use the granny method.
OK, I had to bite on that, but still, I have never had a major "shoelace loosening problem... :dunno

Velcro
Vanguard:
Velcro shoes suck. My kids wore them when they were too young to tie their shoes. The Velcro gets all crud-ed up and worn out faster than the shoe.
DaOld Man:
I too had been tying my shoes wrong.
I have a pair of shoes that will not stay tied, I thought they needed new strings, but thanks to this video, I now have tight shoes!
Thanks shmokes, good find!
RobbyMac:
Ashamed to admit, but all these years I'd been double tying because I could never keep my laces tied. And I always wondered why my laces would want to run vertical. All these years I was doing the granny knot, and never thought much of it, nor did I know a simple switch makes a world of difference.
Been wearing work boots the past couple days with the reef knot and they haven't come loose yet.
Learn somethin new each day... just took me 40 years to learn this one ;)
