Shoe laces. You would think that with today's technology and production methods that your laces would stay tied. Nope, out of multiple pairs of shoes only 1 pair of Columbia hiking boots have good laces. All of my other shoes from dress to casual to tennis' all have to be double knotted in order to remain tied. Geez, I feel like a little kid again when my mom had to double knot my shoes!

Apparently I had been tying my shoes wrong my whole life. Since seeing this guy in a TED talk I have been reversing the loop at the end and voila, my shoes now never come untied. Try it!
