What Technique Do You Use To Lace Your Shoes?

Tweet

I remember when our children were small and we was teaching them to tie their shoes. I did not think we were ever going to get them to learn how to do it properly. They seemed tie the string onto their finger more than the shoe. They would let go and the string would still be untied. LOL My Daughter is beginning to teach my granddaughter to tie her shoe. She called and ask how we ever taught them to tie a shoe. She said it is hard. I just laughed. The joys of being a grandparent. Well I remembered having a site bookmarked with techniques to lace a shoe. I went to my bookmarks and sure enough I found it. I pulled up the site and I could not believe my eyes. There are 31 ways to lace a shoe. Can you believe that? Some are easy to tie and some are difficult. Each of the 31 ways have diagrams with them so you can see what they look like. After looking at all of them, I come to the conclusion that It may just be better to purchase Velcro shoes and zip up boots. It is a very interesting site. It has instructions for the lacing up on the side menu. You will also find the lacing methods for lugs and the Help section along the side. The Help section helps you deal with things like uneven laces, slipping laces and crooked shoelaces. You can also take the shoelace poll and read the shoelace FAQs section. I posted a simalar article on gather and received some very interesting comments. Seems there are many peopole who use several of these techniques to lace their shoes. If you’re big into mathematics, you’ll want to check out the "2 Trillion" section near the top, which goes into the fact that probability shows there are two trillion different methods of feeding a lace through a shoe eyelet. Can you believe that? Check out this site here. http://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/lacingmethods.htm Which technique do you use to lace your shoe?
