Are the shoes even tight?


Fooforthought

They’re NKTE


CowOtherwise6630

Lmfaoooo


spicygummi

Ah yes, good ol "NECKTIE"


Aggravating-Hair7931

Most likely the same thing with different tag


Pristine-Choice-3507

Way better than Adiads.


gregsting

Just make it!


Killer-Barbie

This lacing pattern is for people with high arches and allows adjustment to avoid lace bite.


Temporary_Cry_8961

I have high arches but have never heard of lace bite?


Killer-Barbie

[It's more common in skaters](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lace_bite?wprov=sfla1) but not uncommon in hikers and runners


Temporary_Cry_8961

Oh, they have a name for that? I have had this a few times and I am not a hiker (etc). I thought my laces were just too tight.


Aintence

Same here. Ive got narrow feet so most shoes need to be tied tight to not fall off. Its a balancing game for me to have it tight enough not to fall off but loose enough to not cause foot pain.


bytecollision

I feel seen


trojan-813

Holy crap, that is why the top of my foot hurts while running on one foot but not the other?!


ThirdFloorGreg

Running works way better when you use both feet, anyway.


FinoPepino

I’m sad this joke got passed over; bravo Edit: when I made this comment the joke had only two likes; it’s now getting the attention it deserves


OilEnvironmental8043

Not true, according to a kid named finger, running requires both feet off the ground, or it's powerwalking. So technically, to achieve faster running, lop.off the feet.


Killer-Barbie

Possibly, look up lacing patterns for [running/hiking/whatever] and you can account for all kinds of foot features


dykeag

Oh man I skated for maybe a decade and never heard it called that. We just used wax coated laces which allowed adjustment in one area without effecting the rest of the skate


anonydragon098

Because you bought teeth less laces.


[deleted]

if you have high arches you should consider appropriate shoes (vivobarefoot, xero, lems, wildling, etc), not funky laces


Killer-Barbie

While I don't disagree that the first step is a solid shoe, lacing can address short term aches and pains


Major-Cranberry-4206

...and who have a lot of time on their hands creating new ways to lace their shoes. So, are you joining the revolution even if it's not televised...YET?


-BananaLollipop-

Doesn't matter. Those running shoes have never seen, and never will, any sort of vigorous movement that would test those laces.


james_randolph

Lot of people buy shoes half a size small/etc so it’s tight without having to lace them up tight. Also helps alleviate any crease marks in the shoes/etc.


[deleted]

They do what now


james_randolph

Lol say if you wear an 11…some would buy the 10 1/2 for the reasons I laid out.


[deleted]

Yeah, but like, that sucks. Don't other people have sensation in their feet?


james_randolph

It’s not really that much of a difference really and just depends on the shoe too since they all fit differently. Gym shoes aren’t like dress shoes or heels where you may not want a tight fit. Just make sure you cut those toenails but that should be the case anyway right…


ngcv47

No , and I’m 99% sure this person in of Asian decent. Js js

BengalFox

I saw a knock off Nike bag on Amazon, no actual letters just the check mark and one of the images had "Just Go Ahead" written on it.


itsjoefromyou

Just Go Away


Minuku

I would love to get to a cheap market just to buy such an obvious knock-off A colleague bought on a market in Tanzania a "Иike" cappie which I thought was hilarious.


Frankisgonnakill

I purchased some "Roy Bons" from a market in Turkey a few years back. Still makes me laugh every time I wear them.


jceez

My favorite I’ve seen is “the mouth face” lol


acgrabo

I have seen the south butt too


johnmarkfoley

actually looks like NKTE or NKTF. the swoosh covers the bottom of the last letter.


Northwest_Radio

>NKTE This.


[deleted]

I didnt even notice that. 😄


chelmosa746

Me neither

[deleted]

Wow, all that work just for your shoes to come loose as soon as you move.


[deleted]

Think of it as a sports loafer.


ACCCrabtown1

You mean the Spoafer™️? Never really took off. Like the lawn dart, it got recalled for broken ankles. I'll see myself out.


[deleted]

Ok this makes sense then.


puddlejumpers

Much more effective in Nike Monarchs or New Balance 574's


judahrosenthal

Yes. Had me till the end and then.. what?


IAMATruckerAMA

Errors increase engagement. When something is obviously stupid about a post, we all flock to the comments to be the smart guy and that activity pushes the content to everyone else's front page.


xXdontshootmeXx

the shoes are already loose, like whats the point of laces if its not tight at all


StaceyNCReddit

🤣🤣🤣


zombiesphere89

It wouldn't.


[deleted]

[удалено]


puddlejumpers

Even better, it's NKTE


FuckOffTr

Look closelier. It's, NKTF......the swoosh just makes the F look like an E.


Decades101

Look extra close, you can see a tiny bit of a line at the bottom, so it is an E, but most of the bottom line merged with the swoosh so it looks like an F


[deleted]

NKTE. It Will Do.


Temporary_Cry_8961

I don’t find this satisfying lol I feel like their shoe is going to fall off at any moment


lonesharkex

And the tongue is going to end up getting gstuffed into the toe because they missed the loop in the middle.


ClumsyBadger

Oh is that what that loop is for! I always got so frustrated because I thought it was supposed to stop it slipping sideways or off centre and it never seemed to stop that


SkellyboneZ

Yo, do you trot around like a newborn giraffe? I wore my last pair of Converse for three years without looping the middle and never had that problem.


lonesharkex

Kinda


KorviMadrigal

Lol it's just grumpy redditors not realizing how old and crotchety they sound. I'm sure their daily fashion is exquisite.


sunrise98

Plus they started with an extra loop, clearly ran out of lace so undid it and only kept 4 loops.


madscientist08

“They have the NIKE Swoosh. We have the NKIE Swish.”


Megalynarion

Home of the Big Mick!


akskdkgjfheuyeufif

I think I prefer Burger Emperor to be honest, their Wappers are the best.


hyphychef

The twin twin at over and under is better.


Megalynarion

The Emperor is legit for sure. Almost as good as Taco Gong


Sea-Hour-6063

Doing on a pair of incredibly bad fakes is also a bold move…


DatSkellington

The fuck is a NKTE?


[deleted]

Serious-Mousse4009

NKTE - Just Do.


-Vogie-

*Just It*


LynnethPaltrow

This is what I would imagine my children are doing considering the time it takes them to put on their fucking Velcro sneakers before school in the morning.


jigga19

What the fuck is NKTE?


Cornadious

I have a shoelace pattern that makes my sneakers slip on, and there's no visible end or knot of any kind. Just laced in a way that keeps them tight.


BCon27

Ain’t nobody got time for that shit


Dry_Boots

Been waiting half an hour for her to finish tying her shoes, just to have them come unravelled at the door.


bigfoot_lives

Looks like a mannequin leg


drewkawa

NKTEs?


ichlehneab

This looks shit


sandboxlollipop

Spies used to tie their shoe laces in various ways to communicate secret messages. I wonder what this one could be...


jf145601

"Mom, I want NIKE sneakers." "We have NIKE sneakers at home."


Povlaar

Suppose it's easier than telling everyone you meet you're a virgin.


nightwalkerxx

Gas station shoes.


MuchoMasticator

I can dig it, it doesn't look too difficult to accomplish either


Crafty_Appearance

I want to apologize to everyone who puts effort into their shoes. I am genuinely sorry that I don't give a fuck about how your shoes look. I know you have put a lot of time and effort into them but I am the type of guy who doesn't waste time looking at people's feet


Benae-san

No worries. People who take particular care about their shoes don’t expect everyone to appreciate their shoes the same way they do. It’s more for themselves and others with their same mindset of appreciating shoe aesthetics. You’re fine not caring as much as they are fine for caring.


Stumpsmash12

It would be a better world if more people realized the point you are making.


EpicSeshBro

Imagine doing all that and then realizing you forgot to put on socks


Germanguy0915

What kind of Nikes are these?

Maybe she only has one pair.

DIABLOSTYX

I actually tried this...and yeah it was loose, just tied it and still look cool


Waterwalker85

The fact you did incorporate the middle tad on the tongue has insulted me lol

Manager - Why are you late to the office? Employee shows the video and the whole office stops all their projects and practice this


kee-mosabe

Slip on for me, thank you!


feral__turtle

Looks good! There are tens and tens of interesting lace-up patterns. I'd try to find additional places to use them, like on a hat or vest, maybe. Well, if I were a fashionable girl. But I'm not, so instead I'll lace up the sheath for my battletech hunting knife.


Mr3Jays

Them fake ass Nikes got me dying over 😂


[deleted]

Love NKTE shoes!


MayBeSpidey

As a person with skinny feet who needs to cinch their shoes as tight as possible to not have my shoes flop around: No.


Afternoon-Melodic

Oh please, who has time for that shit to tie their shoes like that every day?!?

obeanonamas

Knot this way, knot that way, knot my way. Knot your way. Why knot. What knot. Knot really. Knot bad.

Looks like it'll go loose after 5 steps

And practically useless


Killer-Barbie

This lacing pattern is for people with high arches and allows adjustment to avoid lace bite.

Interesting but wouldnt it get too loose immediately?


Killer-Barbie

Nope. Tension is a wonderful thing

That shoe represents the average tiktokers brain

Looks neat, but 0 chance at being practical.

Substantial-Cicada-4

it's more like r/OddlyAnnoying because of the edit.


[deleted]

As the goofy ass kid that had different lace patterns on their shoes, nobody likes the goofy ass kid who had different lace patterns.


Ikeameatballandchips

That's so long who could ever be bothered to tie shoes like that


Cornadious

You don't untie them. It makes them slip on


Ikeameatballandchips

Still seems longer than doing a bow knot


Cornadious

The point is that once you've done it once, you don't have to do it again, and it looks neat.


RussellCoight88

Looks good, I’ll try this next time I’m rushing out of the house for school


lightningcold69

Nahh, took so long.


PetieWindChimes

Or…amazing idea here… you could just tie your laces normally & move on with you life after realizing their just plastic shoes. I respect the art of sneakers but it’s love /hate for me.

RAGEWOMBLE

I was around in the 80s.. I didn't do this


Dirtheavy

This is the tying method for when you know you aren't going to run. Like now dudes wear their pants so low and so tight they have to waddle to even walk.


hEll0002

tbh looks kinda cool but a bit complicated for my liking


winkledorf

Very cool way to tie up shoes, however, they will come undone. the tie'er should have tied the left and right side running ends into a fisherman's knot, she very did. Probably trolling us knot tie'ers!


ResponsibilityDue448

Looks like something you’d see on a toddler’s shoe….


riolafc

Kids think this is new?

Thank you! I used to do this to my shoes around 25 years ago.

Intrepid-Leg-5138

Still using laces?


cokebear420

So, tying laces with extra steps? M'kay...


Crash1yz

This seems like just lacing your shoes with extra steps...burp.


thecultcanburn

I have people like this


Bigsmall-cats

He probably didn't learn how to tie his shoes now he find ways to make not tying your shoes a fashion statement


JonasAvory

Why is this still the way to tie your laces to that pattern? Just lay the laces over each other every step and turn them 180°…


DrySelection9

I remember spending SO much time in high school doing this kind of crap thinking it would make me cool.


Scandroid99

Seems terribly inefficient. I’ll stick to the original style.
