How to tie shoelaces, not to hurt leg

Properly laced shoe does not fall, do not rub, saved from injuries and corns. Tie shoelaces, and walking becomes easier.

Exactly how to choose the appropriate type of lacing, advises The American Society of Orthopedics.

The usual method of cross lacing fits all, and in most cases it is the best. Therefore, before the tie up laces, remember the basic rules that will make shoes more comfortable:

1. Loosen the laces before you put on one's shoes. Firstly, it is easier to insert the foot in the shoe. Second, do not become loose eyelets and shoe last longer.
2. Always start the laces from the toes and gradually tighten the laces on a pair of holes to another. That is not dorgayte the ends in the hope that you so quickly drags the whole leg. Stringing "step by step" longer, but you will achieve a perfect fit shoe on the foot.
3. Buy shoes in which a lot of holes for laces. The more, the more options and ways to make lace shoes comfortable.

And if the legs have features, try other ways.

narrow foot

If the foot is narrow, try to choose a shoe with two rows of holes and pass through the outer laces only a number - it's easier to tighten the leg.

wide foot

For wide feet also fit shoes with a double row of holes, but to use it is necessary to have internal holes, to leave more room for the legs.

A narrow heel and broad metatarsus

Use two lace. One thread closer to the fingers and tie it loosely, and the second insert into the holes closer to the heel and pull the shoes as you are comfortable.

Heel pain

If there are problems with heels and heels, Thread the laces through each hole and make sure that the part of the lace, which is closer to the fingers, was free. A region, which is closer to the heel, on the contrary, fasten tightly.

When you reach the penultimate hole, do not cross your shoelaces, and immediately pull them out at the last hole. On each side will be a small loop. Now crisscross the laces and pull them through the loop, then tighten and tie.
