    Okay, I wanted to do a poll but don't know how to so I'll just pose the question instead;

    How do you do your shoe laces? In a criss-crossy fashion or a horizontal fashion?

    What way are all the cool kids wearing them?

    Or the dubes knot... not that that's me though, I think I'd be a horizontal one, despite the fact the criss-cross is a better tie IMHO.

    ha ha such an irrelevant question... :p

    But criss cross is for the old ladies... defo a horizontal type of girl;)

    really depends on the shoe most horizontal ! lace up lacoste look good criss cross .. i think !;)

    I tie them with ease and just don't think about how it's being done. I can't see how it could ever be important and or interesting.

    So, you meant to ask 'How do you lace your shoes?', but typed 'How do you tie your shoelaces?'.

    I'd stick to slip-ons, if I were you! :D

    My answer: depends on the shoe, tbh.

    Whatever way they're being told to because. let's face it, they haven't got a brain of their own.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I am of the horizontal persuasion as well but I just wanted to get the mood amongst the masses, the consensus amongst the great unwashed, the feeling on the ground...

    My trainers have laces. Horizontal? But if working out, I'll knot the bow a second time like a little kid, so that they don't come undone.

    I never tie my laces. I just put them inside my shoe!
