So , have you ever had a pair of fishing boots or shoes, or ANY pair of shoes that simply will NOT STAY TIED throughout the day? Don't throw them away, and don't buy new laces. It's not the shoes....It's your knot!

You know the knot you learned when you were 5? Well with one simple lil change, you will not have this problem any more. If you tie the overhand one way, and then the bow the same way, you have made a slip-prone granny knot. Reverse one or the other and your knot will stay secure all day!


Easiest way to tell if u r doing it right or wrong is to look at the bow. If the two bows are in line (more or less) with your leg and foot, u have a Granny knot. If they stick out to the sides, problem solved. Good luck, it takes some getting used to. After all, you've been doing it the same way since you were 5!
