Nothing is more annoying than loose shoelaces on those long hikes. Here’s how to tie those boot laces without resorting to hard-to-untie double knots. Start the knot in the normal way and pull out the first loop of the bow with your forefinger. When you grab the loose end, wrap it around the loop twice, instead of just once, then pull it through the opening and pull the bow tight. The secret is wrapping the loose end around the loop twice before pulling it through the opening. Pull the knot tight and it will stay tight all day. To remove the knot, just pull either loose end like a normal knot.
