I’m looking for any examples that you might have encountered and links to them.

    This one, that I just started.

    The commenter after me ties their shoelaces very well, and I’m jealous.

        I initially joined this conversation to say that there would be no way for anyone to deserve such a great shoe tying complement, but after researching your abilities I must say that I stand corrected. Bravo on your fantastic ability.

        I’m all ears. I usually just tie mine like a regular square knot

          do the final cross in the opposite direction and they will never accidentally come undone

            I’ve used this for years but I have a pretty high rate of asymmetry. It’s still a lot quicker to just quickly fix that than do it the way I was taught so I keep doing it.

            Maybe I should practice doing it symmetrically instead of assuming I will always lopside it though

      There’s actual a great, short TED talk on tying shoes and the strong form of the typical knot used.
