Do your shoe laces always come undone?

I've always liked leather sneakers and I only buy leather ones but I've noticed one downside-their shoe laces always come undone! Now,I could pretend I'm one of those cool rappers that don't care about such mundane things and I honestly don't except that doesn't look very presentable when you're at work. Well, nobody said that wearing sneakers to work was presentable,anyway... Do you have the same problem? I think fabric is not as slippery as leather since I've never noticed that with shoes made out of fabric.

I actually prefer mules that slip on rather than a laced shoe. One mule that I wear laces up too so I can adjust it for comfort. But, they do come untied. I find the old method that I used for my kids works well. I tie them in a double knot!

Tell me about it I've tried triple knots but this specific pair shoes doesn't give up! Maybe that's their way of saying "Put to me to rest!.."

My Shoes are made from lorica and they are done up with velcro. I used to wear plastic shoes that were done up with laces but they came undone. My dog Secret would undone to them when he was a playful little puppy. I am vegan so that is why I don't wear leather shoes.

That's cool, I never realized vegans have restrictions regarding apparel. Makes sense but I never thought of that

oh leather? its the skinny laces right? those always come undone. just find some thicker laces that look good with your shoes.
