Thanks for showing this, I struggled tying laces until I was about 10 and was embarrassed, one time I ran up my road crying because my family were getting frustrated with me when I couldn’t tie my laces in the 70’s, luckily this man stopped me and asked what the problem was, he was left handed and within minutes I could tie a simple lace. I was forced by teachers to write with my right hand but I’m left handed in all other ways, I was later diagnosed with dyspraxia which still causes problems with tying bows and fancy double laces, but seeing your tutorial today has helped me tremendously today, I’m so glad you did this video Dan x

I love the Berlutti knot (it's a beauty knot! 😊) and will use it from here on. I find that you can even out all lace ends and loops perfectly without compromising the tension you want for personel comfort but still attain an easy classically styled look. It takes a little longer to tie, granted but it is worth it because you never have to re-tie your laces once again during the day until you wish to remove your shoes. I wish I had learnt this knot decades ago! Thank you, Dan. It lies flat too. It is a perfect knot to tie for shoes . . . I can't think of anything else to say other than I won't be using any other way to tie my shoes again. 😊

Recently I forgot how to tie my laces? Don't know how, may be my last shoes had very short laces that's hard to loop properly... And I had to re-learn it now! Thank you for showing the Parisian and Berlutti Styles, they are quite elegant and sturdy. And for all those who are ashamed of having diffculty in tying a knot. It's not easy to "imagine" how a knot is tied... Knots are a complex matter :-)

I learned the Parisian knot on another KZbin video,and so far, I find it bullet proof. It never comes loose. It is telling that when I get home,the laces still feel tight on my feet. Especially good for those round laces. Maybe part of it is making two loops as the first step rather than one loop as shown here.

I had my first pair of bespoke Berluti shoes made for my wedding some years ago (the shoes are still immaculate and beautiful) and the Italian (I think) fitter could do the Berluti knot in seconds. I had never heard of it or seen it before and it still takes me ages. Never seen the Parisian knot so I will try that as well. Great tutorial.

Thanks for the tutorial, Dan; it never occurred to me that there were multiple ways to tie shoe laces or that people even _noticed._ I'll stick with the normal way for now, but once I send my Florshiem's in for you to fancy up next spring, I might just try my hand at learning the Berluti knot. It's wonderful to hear that you're taking work from overseas (I'm from Iowa, in the US), you pioneered the style I'm after and I'm not so confident another cobbler would do it justice.

I could never tie my shoe by having the bunny go out the hole, around the tree and back down... but the Fresh Prince taught me a much easier way. Tie a knot, make two bunny ears, then tie them in a knot, easy-peasy with no trees getting in the way!
@MikkoRantalainen Жыл бұрын
That's a great explanation of the technique I'm using in practice. Never learned the "proper" bunny goes around the tree. And to keep the knot from untying itself automatically it's important to get the bottom crossing the right way. If you do the initial crossing the wrong way, the loops in the final product try to turn to back-to-front orientation instead of going to side-to-side and untie the knot when you walk.
