Somehow I don't think it'll come as a surprise to the forum that you can't even tie your shoe laces properly Laugh

Double knot is the way to go.

I too have had this problem (shoe laces that is). I find that some laces are thin and waxy like with little friction to keep them tied. Cheaper laces are better.

On a positive note, what I have done, with round laces, is to take some fine sandpaper and slightly roughen the laces.

Never thought, before now, to turn to my best buddy Google for advice!
