This site made it my habit to search for granny knots on people's shoes on public transportation.

Ian's knot saved me some time in the past decade or so.

Is there a knot with two settings for tying and releasing? Releasing it to a point that allows taking off the shoe and pulling somewhere else to fix it firmly again?

It must be adjustable because laces get longer over time.

I learned how to my shoes the bunny ears way, then as an adult skipped the standard knot and went straight to the Ian knot. Still can't tie my shoes with the standard knot :)

I use the two loop knot.. The beauty of this knot is that it doesnt come undone as easily and i can remove/wear my shoes without entying shoelaces. It has come undone only 3-4 times in past 2 years for me. Very effective

The lug bowtie and lug knotted styles can be combined to leave an area with almost no pressure on it. It's useful if you find yourself with an injured foot on day two of a long hike.

I was in my teens when I discovered this site. I am now forty. I have been tying my shoes quicker than the average person literally for the better half of my life.

Wow, this is a good flashback! Used to use patterns on his site almost 20 years ago. Pretty sure HW Bush was in office

My old adidas may be long gone, but they still live rent-free on Ian's Shoelace Site since 2009.

Reminds me of inter-dimensional cable

things like this is why the internet rocks
