There are two types of shoelace knots, one is called ' Starting Knot ', which is a standard way to cross two laces. The other is a knot called ' Double Starting Knot ' that makes it difficult to untie by repeating Starting Knot twice. Basically, it starts with Starting Knot, but when trying to tie it easily or when a child practices tying, use Double Starting Knot properly.



◆ The most common way to tie shoelaces
The Ian's Shoelace Site has a page that picks up and compares many shoelace tying methods by category, so that you can refer to it when you do not know which one to choose. ' Standard Shoelace Knot ' and ' Two Loop Shoelace Knot ', which have similar tying methods, are selected as the 'most common method of tying shoelaces'.

Step 1: The Standard Shoelace Knot is tied in 6 steps in total, first with the Starting Knot.



Step 2: Hold the tip of the left string (yellow) toward the right and make a ring with the right string (blue). Thread the yellow string behind the ring.



Step 3: Wrap the blue string around the yellow string.



Step 4: Then the hole will be completed in the center, so make a ring with a yellow string and pass the tip through.



Step 5: After passing through the yellow ring, bring the two rings with both hands and tie them tightly.



Step 6: Just pull until the knot is tight and you're done.



◆ The quickest and easiest way to tie an Ian knot
Ian Knot is a type of shoelace tying method that cannot be untied so strongly that even professional athletes use it. At Ian's Shoelace Site, we have devised the procedure to connect such Ian knots the fastest in the world and explain it with illustrations.

Step 1: First, connect with Starting Knot.



Step 2: Twist the left and right strings to make a ring.



Step 3: Cross each other's rings. An image of spreading the yellow ring with the thumb of the left hand, pushing the blue ring with the middle finger of the right hand, and pinching the tip of the yellow ring.



Step 4: When each other's rings pass, pinch the tips of the rings with your thumb and index finger, respectively.



Step 5: Pull the two rings so that they extend like a bow. At this time, the point is to loosen everything without pulling it.



Step 6: At the end, simply pull the ring and tighten the knot and you're done. It is said that shoelaces can be tied tightly in one-third of the time required for normal tying.



Looking at the GIF, it looks like this, and it is possible to tie shoelaces in just a few seconds.


◆ How to tie the most difficult ' Double Shoelace Knot '
Step 1: First, tie the laces to a 'bowknot' or 'Ian knot'.



Step 2: Lift and cross so that the blue ring is in front and the yellow ring is in the back.



Step 3: Wrap the yellow ring around the blue ring and pass it through the hole with the tip in the center.



Step 4: Just pull the two wheels left and right and tighten the knot to complete. It will be difficult to untie, but it is a knot that can be used in situations where you do not want the shoelaces to be untied.
