Erika’s No-Knot Tying Styles

This video makes a reference to our old name, Invisible Shoes. And it references Sonja’s tying style.

And since there’s exposed lace under your foot, I recommend coating that part of the lace with Shoe Goo for added protection.

    Ah, random trivia, how I love thee… The ends of shoelaces are called aglets. And I had to search the bobby pin question so I don’t feel entitled to answer that one!
    I’ve developed a bit of a dislike for shoes this year. But every day I look at the glass all over the ground on the way to university and sort of cringe at the idea of walking barefoot.
    These look amazing. Simple, relatively inexpensive, customisable, good for
    so many different situations… Plus the zombie apocalypse mention in one video SOLD me. Now to work out the semantics of getting a pair!

      Did you have to look those up or did you know them both? 😉

        I actually knew both of the answers! I worked for several years in a sporting goods store hence, laced many shoes and I have always had the habit of picking up tidbits of knowledge and storing them away. I have volumes of trivial knowledge tucked away. 😉
