How do you tie your shoes?
 

My shoe laces came undone today and so I stopped and tied them. The girl that was with me started to laugh and said "thats not how you are suppose to tie your shoes."

I make two ears and tie them together. Whats wrong with that?

Re: How do you tie your shoes?
 

I do it like that too. Tell her she is retarded.

I make bunny ears, too.

Loop in the left hand, wrap the other side around with the right hand, pull it through.

I never could get the bunny ear method down.

Pay those fools no mind because the bunny ears method is the way to go.

I can't even tie my shoes the other way, the "loop swoop" shit or whatever it's called.

This is the cutest thing I've ever read.





But then I remembered that you're 23 and not 5, and decided that you're GHEY.

Do you wear velcro sneakers because you're retro or retarded?

-Rudey
--Leave blaine alone!

A little of both.

-Jules
-- But I cross the Velcro to make it funky!

Ummm

How else are you spposed to tie your shoes?

Seriously, unless she tucks them in or did that dumb thing in the early 90s where they looped and tied them at the BOTTOM of the shoe as opposed to the top, then what's she talking about?

LOL I remember I had a pair of Reeboks in 5th grade that came with three shoelaces (orange, white, black), and I looped them ALL into the shoe and tied them all together at once.

I tie a knot, make a loop with one string, wrap the other string around, and pull it through to make a bow. Many children learn to tie their shoes using the bunny ears method. It's easier than my method.

When I was about ten, they were afraid children would never learn how to tie their shoes because of velcro. They also were afraid children would never learn to tell time because of digital watches and clocks. I have no idea who they are, but I remember they were very concerned about velcro and digital watches.

I do the bunny ears too. My dad taught me that way and it's the only way I can do it.

The new fad is shoes that zip up! Personally, I don't think they're cute, but to each his own.

Anyway, I do the "loop swoop" when tying my shoes because I can tie them tighter that way. However, when I'm tying ribbon on a present I use the bunny ear method because it seems to look nicer (usually you can get the two loops to be at the top and the end strings at the bottom).

Uhm......ok. I didn't realize that there were multiple ways of tying shoelaces. I guess I learn something new everyday.


According to what other people have posted, I do the "loop swoop" method. I don't remember ever doing it any other way.


.....Kelly :)

I was taught this little saying when I was younger...

"over, under, around and through, meet mr. bunny rabbit pull and through"

that's how I tie my laces :)

That's what I do. I have never heard or seen bunny ears before.

That's the way I tie my shoes. That was the only way I was ever taught.
No bunny ears for me.

Going by what was previously posted in the thread, i do the bunny ears. I just recently found out that their was another method of tying shoelaces, and since i have never met any one who does the loop swoop thing i cant even imagine what it would look like. As if it could be that diffirent because obviously the finnish product looks the same reguardless to the method that was used.

Am I the only person who wishes they made bow biters for adults?

You learn something new every day. I never even heard of the "bunny ears" method until I read this.

On the other hand, I usually wear loafers.

I do it the Big Daddy way: loop, schwoop, and pull.

Loop, swoop and pull here...

I learned to tie my shoes by reading a book called the Shoelace box...My dad even made me my own shoelace box to practice on.

Huh? Shoes? Who wears shoes in the summer?




Nah but I use both methods...lol...I don't really think about it.

Same here... although most of the time I wear either pumps, sandals, or boots that zip up.

Doesn't matter how you tie your laces, as long as they don't come untied by themselves thirty seconds later. :)

1. Tie a knot
2. Make a loop on the left side
3. Wrap the right side around the loop and tuck
4. Pull the two loops

No bunny ears for me either

i do the loop swoop thing...although i never knew it was called that! but i use the bunny ears method when i'm tying a bow on something that i want to look pretty (ex. a present). it seems to look nicer and more even.

has anyone seen Raising Helen? this thread totally reminded me of the littlest girl who would always cry because she couldn't remember how her mom taught her to tie her shoes..ZTA Mich, i think your way is how she was taught in the movie: "over, under, around and through, meet mr. bunny rabbit pull and through" :)

pshh- compared to all of y'all I probably lace my shoes "fucked up". I'll have to take a picture or make a diagram sometime. Very different than the average joe-schmoe.

i used the tie book too.
never thought about bunny ears though. they do stay tied.

My brother and I both do bunny ears, we like to tease our mom that she failed as a parent to teach us the other way. My husband still laughs at my bunny ears.

I do bunny ears on everything now - when I was still throwing I did loop/swoop on my throwing shoes because the laces were way too long and I felt like that pulled them tighter.

bunny ears...although i feel a little weird still calling it that

OMG, We have become this bunch O Drones of StartWars!

I Tie them with Shoe Strings. Have not graduated to Velcro Yet!

Is there really something I am missing here D A??



How in the hell do I know, I get up in the morning and do MY Shoes for Work at 6:50. Oh, AM!

Now, if you really want to get seriuos How About Tying a Tie????:)
