My hiking boots laces are always loose. Is there a solution?

Question

If I run, my boots are wet or just in general, I have to frequently tie my laces. I buy cheap hiking boots usually for around $30. When I try to have strong nodes then I break the laces.

Answer 1

when tying them, go round twice with the first twist, then tie double loops. my kids shoes are always tight this way

Answer 2

Buy more flattened boot laces, the round ones always slip. And always double-knot!

Answer 3

Waxed ice hockey skate laces. Great for lots of things.

Answer 4

Im not too sure but you can buy simmilar boots and add red laces if you wish, check online stores such as ebay or littlewoods (although i dont shop online) but try checking stores that are more likley to sell them.

Answer 5

use good quality laces. and tie the laces tightly...or use the boot clips so that the laces wont slip

Answer 6

Hard to explain but... when you get to the middle (ankle part, or before its not loops but those pins), make one simple knot ( it won't look like a knot, just a twist), and then continue to the top. I always double knot the top. Works for me!

Answer 7

Ones you have tied you're laces, wrap insulation tape around it. It does look cheap but you're laces wound come undone.

Answer 8

used wax hockey skate laces, and double knot them. Those suckers won't come undone then.

Answer 9

If it's one thing you should invest in, it's shoes. Don't buy the cheap ones.

Answer 10

Double-knot them. They won't slip then.
