This is a great explanation! One of the advantages of tying the first half knot with another turn is that the tension in the laces is held, so it's much easier to form the loops without having to hold tension yourself. Perfect for kids. Thanks!
This should be the first one to be recommended. . .This was the best tutorial i came so far !! UA-cam Algorithms are promoting American things over other countries. . This is pure Racism.
Thanks for making the video. I wish I came across this video two pair of shoes back. It seems like the shoe companies are now using cheap shoe laces. Using your knot technique, not once my lace came undone.
Personally I use your final method but not adding the extra turn in the first half. In Ashley's Book of Knots this one is #1219 or the Double Slip knot. The 3 full turns you show cause a large bunching of the bind. I also avoid the first improvement for the same reason. By adding the extra turn in the first part you make space you then have to match with the top half. If the gap over the tongue on your shoes is narrow you don't have room for this. I've never had this come undone without something pulling directly on the tail so lace length is worth a moment of consideration.
Thanks! I work with children and they ALWAYS need their shoes tied and they don't know how to; I tie a lot of shoes, this will helped. Thumbs upped and subbed.
Very helpful and thorough, thank you! One thing that you did intuitively without mentioning it is that in the first part of the knot you crossed right over left, and in the second part you crossed left over right. That makes the shoelaces go in the correct direction.
Actually you assume that it doesn't matter how you overlap your laces. But it does matter. Your original way of tying one half knot and one bow produces a double-slip square knot (AKA reef knot, as you mentioned), which on it's own should not come loose--in fact it gets tighter with time and wear. Note how the bow is perfectly horizontal. Where people have problems is in the first half knot--they reverse which lace goes over which, then tie the bow as you do, which produces a granny--a weak and ineffective knot. The bow will be on an angle. This is what comes untied. If you tie a granny, it doesn't matter how many loops or overlaps you do, it will come untied. It certainly doesn't hurt to reinforce a square knot, but it's not really necessary.
Oh’ my god. Thank you for this comment. I have recently jumped head first into knot tying and a lot of principles and tradition I now see in common knots. I had not dwelled on the common bow yet until this comment. As you said. I simply pulled the slips through to see what I have and you showed me something I never realized. And part two of this schooling is that my entire life I have been doing the half knot wrong, even though my old school wording as what to do was correct “Right over left” as I studied what I do, I do left over right. Just think how many times my shoe laces came undone due to this little blunder. 🤷🏻♂️
@@13Voodoobilly69 Don't feel bad. I spent my first 64 years tying the shoelace bow wrong. And I was a Boy Scout and knew knots! But I had never made the connection with tying shoelaces. I got fed up with them coming untied and figured I'd consult my source for everything--YT. Couldn't believe I was so stupid. Irony is that I have since re-laced my shoes with paracord and cord locks. Even easier and faster.
dude thank you u @@ i finnally can breath after 2 hours of searching :: your way is awsome !! and the last part is the best and easiest part to learn !
The last one looks really useful. I've been practicing, but noticed that it can still come undone by pulling on the bows, not just the ends. Is there a not that would prevent that too? (If the bow gets caught on something).
The last one is very similar to hikers knot except for no double half hitch on the first round what you do is you start like normal one half hitch and then pass the loop through twice that’s very sufficient, it’s called a hikers knot. Be safe, Be good, Be kind, Trust GOD.
I just fell face flat onto the pavement and scratched my phone pretty badly while on a run because of my dumb laces coming undone. Hopefully this will prevent this from happening in the future
Adding the extra turn to the first half or overhand knot isn't going to make any difference except in the initial tightening. Just double wrap the second half to lock it in place. But cool video.

LOVE the shoe lace in two colours!!! The contrast makes it visible.
This should be the first one to be recommended. . .This was the best tutorial i came so far !!

Excellent presentation of secure shoe knots, which are very much confusing. No further inconveniences during outdoor activities! Thanks.
This explanation is easier to see thank you sir
Thanks you so much I been trying this for 13 year and I am so happy!
Right over left then left over right, to make the reef knot for secure shoe laces.
Great presentation.
Thank you

The best vid I've seen for my laces problem
Thank you for the best shoe lace video!!!
I like your way of tying shoes . It works . Thanks
This works like ⭐MAGIC⭐ Its doesn't come undone so often meaning i wont have to worry about it for the ENTIRE day!
Isn't the first knot you showed a granny knot? And looping twice a reef knot? Reef know is always preferred. Thank you for an excellent video

Sir, you sound so classy. Greetings from Russia.
I have laces that are from a more slippery material and they tend to come undone way too often. So I'll give this a try. 👍
Mate your a legend this is the only video that worked for me and i learnt it first try
Same
Extremely helpful! Thanks!
The last one is the best. I use it for years daily.

Thanks Mama Bear. You make a good point. Good Video.
thid dude solved the nonending shoelace problems, great
Oh my gosh thank you 😊
Hey! I think this will really work for my hiking shoes, which have big round slippery laces. Thanks.
I will be using your preferred knot on all of my shoes from now on. It looks so nice! Ty!!
Thank u for the help😄
Excellent! I tried and it worked well.Thank you
How did you tie your shoe like that
Actually you assume that it doesn't matter how you overlap your laces. But it does matter. Your original way of tying one half knot and one bow produces a double-slip square knot (AKA reef knot, as you mentioned), which on it's own should not come loose--in fact it gets tighter with time and wear.

It certainly doesn't hurt to reinforce a square knot, but it's not really necessary.
So is this guy doing it the way you recommend?

Holy hell this is so helpful man! The bunny ears are actually trash compared to this style of shoe tying (it's trash in general)
dude thank you u @@ i finnally can breath after 2 hours of searching :: your way is awsome !! and the last part is the best and easiest part to learn !
Nice, thanks!
Really helpful, thank you.
Exactly
Thanks for this!
Thank you for sharing!
It wooorked!!!it changed my life
Thank you for helping me
Superb ❤
Please help with the loop swoop and pull
Thanks for sharing .
Check out Kirby Allison's burlutti knot
I will try the last one and hope it works, tying shoe laces is almost like rocket science to me as an adult,...LoL...
The last one looks really useful. I've been practicing, but noticed that it can still come undone by pulling on the bows, not just the ends. Is there a not that would prevent that too? (If the bow gets caught on something).
You could tie a stopper knot on the ends of the laces. That way the loops would stop before completely pulling free if caught on something.
Tanks this was really helpfull
I'm Sri Lankan... Thanks
Thankyou so much dude
For athletic and other casual shoes, the Lace Keeper is the way to go.
The last one is very similar to hikers knot except for no double half hitch on the first round what you do is you start like normal one half hitch and then pass the loop through twice that’s very sufficient, it’s called a hikers knot.
Be safe,
Be good,
Be kind,
Trust GOD.
Excellent! Thanks!
If the laces are too long, what can be done?
I just fell face flat onto the pavement and scratched my phone pretty badly while on a run because of my dumb laces coming undone. Hopefully this will prevent this from happening in the future
Thank you. 4:09
Thanks, It worked for me.
well I tried it but it only made either a loose loop or a long loop or a tight loop.
THANK U SO MUCH
Going to give this a try. I've had my shoes come untied right in the middle of my job and no chance to get them fastened again.
Wow
OOF😀😁
