    I think I will stick with the Bi-Colour thanks.

  18. Paul on August 2, 2008

    As an experiment, I laced both of my shoes differently and waited to see how long it took someone to notice. It lasted about 4 months before someone noticed. Then, in a freak coincidence, the same day another person noticed too.

    I want to try the Checkerboard, but it looks tough :(

  19. Avtarsingh on August 3, 2008

    I like Most….

  20. Sebastyne on August 4, 2008

    Hey this is cool! Not that I would necessarily use it on my sneakers, but that would be cool to use on lace back wedding dresses I make – Never thought of that, did you? ;)

  21. Dinh Toan on August 4, 2008

  37. Game Economy on October 10, 2008

    Wow – this sure puts a spin on the usual lacing of shoes! I only know one way, the way my Dad taught me when I was a little girl. Thanks for the neat education and for bringing a sweet childhood memory to mind. :-) Blessings, RH

  42. Scott on October 27, 2008

    Cool! Now I can re-do the insane lacing that my shoe store gives me when I buy new shoes…with confidence!

  49. Sexy Cheese on November 17, 2008

    No way. I thought there was only one way to tie your shoes. Very cool.

  50. Grimlyn on December 11, 2008

    I’ve done the “D. Loopback” On my Converse hightops with strings that are black on one side and red on the other. The effect is that the bottom horizontal string is black, then the stings going up are red, the next strings going out are black, and so on. Think Converse hightops, the usual white part of rubber is black, and all the stitching is done in red. Add the black and red strings. Ugghhhh, a gothy, emo, Converse to kill for.

  51. Anthony on December 29, 2008

    The Taj Mahal is awesome. Niagara Falls is awesome. Tying shoelaces is not awesome. Learn more words, for God’s sake.

  64. p_q on July 29, 2009

    I love this site and this is an awesome post

  65. roldy on August 14, 2009

    Checkerboard is pretty cool. I usually use “display.”

  66. Yonce on August 16, 2009

    That checkerboard lace is f’d up there’s no ends to tie and there’s no knot between the two colored laces which means there should be 4 ends none of which are shown.

    LAME! That would be the coolest one if it were possible.

  67. Brian Macker on August 16, 2009

    We used to do one that is like the first one except instead of putting the lace under the other one you send it up through the already once used eye. We also called it the ladder but it was much neater.

  68. G. W. BUSH #43 on August 17, 2009

    dag, i just lurned the regular way!!!!!

  69. Tooth Fairy Pocket Pillow on August 23, 2009
