I had no idea I wastying my shoes the wrong way all these years. There are two common knots that most people use to tie their shoes: the granny knot and the reef knot. The granny knot is the one pictured on the left above looks a little sloppy and has a tendency to loosen with activity. The reef knot on the left is much neater and will actually tighten with activity. No more untied shoes.
If you are using a granny knot now it is very easy to switch to a reef knot. You just need to change one step of your shoe tying routine. The good people at Runner’s World provided step by step instructions and a video to show you how!
