I always tie up out of habit. Shoes look better untied though.

I enjoy a well tied shoe. I don't like feeling like im wearing sandals if I'm wearing some shoes.

Moms used to threaten me with these when I was just a young lad. Believe I started to ackrite once she purchased them. She was definitely not bluffing.

I never tied my laces(lazy) I would always tuck them in.
It wasnt cool to tie laces when I was in highschool 07

The way JKing did it is perfect

 

[spidermang]

I only tie my shoes for work and gym. My feet are too wide to feel comfortable with the laces tied

I'm an OG....I still tie my shoes

 

[waitwut]

Only shoes i don't tie are Roshes, everything else gets tied.

The look of that fat *** knot and bunny ears is so damn ugly and sloppy... :x

Only time I tie my shoes like that is when i'm hooping. Other than that, I wear my joints like the 4s OP posted.

 

[you go boy]

i do that with some of my shoes... it just looks better for some reason and its easier to take off

 

[Peep Game]

I tie mine all the time. Laces can't look sloppy when you're wearing jeans/khaki's and rarely wearing shorts (other than running)

my go to shoe outside is a pair of lebron 8s. I leave them unlaced, if I get caught in a game, I will tie it all the way up. Some of you are crazy not lacing them up in game

 

[deek510]

I think with the designs of most of the current shoes with the inner booties and all, there should be sufficient lock down even with the laces untied. I mean, if these people are not tying their shoes up to play a game, chances are, the they aren't really playing at a level where they need much lock down.

 

[just nikes]

Only shoes I tie are bulky high tops that will give me blisters from sliding up and down. (XIIs and Griffey 1s)

 

[superblytrife]

i like the way it looks better, honestly... haven't tied my sneakers in 20+ years.

Yep.

It's been a good 14 or 15 years since I've worn tied sneakers.  

I've tried lacing them when I'm getting ready, but I always go back to unlaced.  

 

[airjordan jb23]

some of my shoes i keep laced, others i keep unlaced... really just depends on which ones. some look better unlaced if they aren't too long

 

[ryda421]

people really not tying their shoes :x
