Wrote a bucket list of things to do before I'm 70 next year but never thought to add learning to tie my shoe laces properly!

Love your channels and content. Great simple tips too! I used to go on many a long walks and camps with my dad when I was just a young whippersnapper. We would always wear bread bags on our feet when it was raining. Still at 38 I follow my dads footsteps and the ingenious idea of bread bags lol. RIP dad.

The bread bags Are also a great idea for hiking in the snow

The free umbrella bags at the entrance of most Walmart stores here make great water proof sock covers 👌 They are heavy-duty and almost go to your knee . Great for water crossing. Great video Haze

The shoe lace tip has revolutionised my boot wearing. 40 something years old and learning how to tie shoe laces properly off the internet.

my dad used to say " you learn something new every day" I am 74 and today Haze showed me how to tie my laces 👍👍😃

Thank you soooo much matey for NOT calling them "hacks"! 👍 😉

26 in 2 weeks and I’ve been doing the bunny ear method of tying my shoelaces since we were taught it in kindergarten. Thank you for teaching me how to tie my shoe laces like an adult. I only had to watch this 3 times to embed it into my memory bank lol.

Good tips. Practical experience. Knowledge is knowing you need bread, wisdom. Is knowing to put the wrapping on wet feet.

👍 Totally agree with the tape. Got a burn in my new Ajungilak bag, 25 years ago, (someone’s hot rock??) and put a piece of tape to stop the fill evacuating and the hole getting any bigger...it’s still on it! Saved the bag! TOP!

Was looking for this lacing tip for ages ... Just found it again ... Very handy

I'm 55 years old and never even considered there were other ways to tie a lace! 😁 Cheers Sir Haze of Outdoors ❤

Mind just blown over shoelaces. Thanks Haze. BOOM!

51 years old and I just learned how to tie my shoes properly. Thanks Hazey.

Top tips, thank you! Flat shoelaces are also less likely to come undone, compared to round shoelaces 👍 Looking forward to you doing the Three Peaks soon, wearing your bread bags 😂

You sir are fast becoming a national treasure! - I'm off now to practice tying my bootlaces...........

Never seen tying laces so professionally done and made so interesting ,your a national treasure my son 👍👍👍😃

That show lacing trick is great. Thanks.

Bloody love the laces tip,. Thats so simple. Just brilliant

I'm with The Wandering Forester! At 68 I have a new way to tie shoe laces and it works!! Isn't it great that we can learn something new everyday!!

Oh man, I’m liking that shoelace tip!! My trail running shoes, also Altra LP5s, get stuck with mud and I’ve got cold hands and I’ve double knotted them. Not anymore! Thank you Haze 🙂 Bread bags I remember those coming in very handy at a mountain marathon race mid camp, great top tip!

That knot works even better, when you do a "square knot" on your shoelaces rather than a granny knot ;). I think after so many miles hiked you just wake up one day knowing it, because as soon as you spoke of tying laces, I was like "I already know a good way" :DDD. Great advice though :) Thanks for the vids Haze :D

Nice. On the tip n3, the half knot bit, also wrapping that twice will give it more grip too. ATB

the Bread bags is an old school council estate hack for not having wellies, using ya loaf I suppose 🤣

I never thought of doing my laces like that, thank you for that top tip. Also I am glad another person thinks like me leave no trace .... so everyone shut gates and take your crap home 👍

Thank you so much Haze for teaching me how to tie my shoelaces

I did the bread bags for C2C last year. So satisfying to put on wet shoes after!

Mushroom tip..... Be very careful when foraging for mushrooms. There are some proper units out there that will not only make you very poorly but will log you off permanently. Game. Set. Match mate

GTX stands for Gore-Tex. Virtually all outdoor shoes and boots are ‘Something GTX’. Lots of people (I am part-time in an outdoor store) ask for a shoe or boot called ‘the GTX’….

I go twice over-the-top and twice through-the -loop. It’s what a French mountain guide tought me and she was right: it’s brilliant

Ooh I will try laces tip, I’m always re- tie ing mine 😀👍🏻

I like the bread bag idea

Tape on your walking poles is a life saver at times. Top Tip! 👌

Actually, that knot is a Great tip even if you don't hike at all; I can see it coming in handy with little ones, and old people. Take care, Blessed Be

FYI, I picked up a thru hiker that has completed the pct and the at. I asked about tape and he said to never wrap it around your trekking poles. After it’s in The sun for awhile, the tape starts to melt and in unusable. He said to wrap it so something and keep it inside your pack.

I'm out in the lakes tried the laces tip wow it works cheers fella every day's a school day lol

The laces tip just blew my mind. I always knot the loops exactly how you show, and yeah it's a pain in the A when I get home tired and covered in mud. I'll definitely try this out

Hazey you bloomin star ! Fifty five years later, I find a new way to tie shoe laces. My top tip is, don’t use bread bags as sick bags in the car , vent holes cause a few issues 🤢.

don't know what it is about your videos but whenever feeling down they come along and are a right nice little lift, cheers hazey!

Bread bags is a cracking idea, I usually take flip flops but bread bags will take up a lot less room, nice one 🤙

Namaste-out of trouble: the Buddha would smile. And I can now tie my shoelaces after 62 years! Thx Hazy.

Must try the new shoe lace knot had to re tie my boots twice today out on the moors cheers my friend 🙏🙏👍👍

Simple but effective tips for a beginner like myself 👍 cheers

When you start tying your shoes like that, you'll never go back :D I love this method and use it everyday. Not only for hiking!

Wow I like that trick tying the laces...I'll have to try that because I'm always double knotting my laces!

Excited to try the lace hack xx

Good timing! Shite day until 2 minutes ago

And the Rabbit goes around the tree and down the hole 😂😂😂. Good tips mind

Great shoelace tip, I'm in for that one! Thanks fella.

Another way to lock your laces is to just keep going around again after your first loop around the "bunny ear". It helps if you use two fingers instead of one to hold the ear loop to facilitate grabbing the lace to pull back through. Pulls out easily and you'll never have to retie again!

When you make your first knot put it through twice it will lock while you make to dog ears and tie another knot with the two loops

Brilliant! My Salomons loosen off even when double knotted which is a mare when I've got gaiters on . I've even bought new laces for other boots to avoid this but I'll practice my homework all weekend now until I've mastered it. Cheers 👍 Katie

Used the lace tying tip today, great advice.... 👍

Nameste. Shoe lace was best tip. I never knew it. Blown me mind. I'll be doing it from now on. However I always put an extra twist/turn on the first part so it doesn't slip before making the loops and keeps the tension.

Great tips...Will definitely try that shoelace trick....thanks

Try the Berluti knot mate. Never had it come undone and doesn't knot up when you undo it.

awesome tips thank you, that last one with the laces especially, absolute life changer!

Am I the only person who starts off a "standard" knot with the left hand loop? I've been doing it like that since Miss Tisdale taught me when I was in the Infants 65 years ago - I think I'd just graduated from Clarks sandals! Looking at other websites everybody seems to do the right loop first but it just looks so ODD to me :o) Loved the story that Olga Berluti learned of the knot from the Duke of Windsor who was taught it by his grandmother, Queen Alexandra, "to ensure he would never be embarrassed by trailing laces"

That shoelaces hack was mint! Mind fried! Peace.

Great tip on the knot and the walking stick tape! Thanks.

Best info I ever received the bread bags . Living in Oregon our trails are snow runoff until Aug . Dry feet

Ok the bread bags is a Pro tip! That is so useful! Only need now is to eat bread lol

Brilliant! All 3 tips noted Hazey, taaa v much

Here's a tip to ID noob beginner hikers - if tape is stored on trekking poles, they are beginners. Every skilled hiker knows hands and feet travel twice as far as one's body/pack, because they move both forward and backward with each step. It may only be a half-ounce of tape, but the beginner will carry that half-ounce twice as far with each step. Not to mention stickiness tape leaves behind? Experienced hikers wrap tape on a piece of McDonald's straw and carry it in a mini ziplock so it doesn't stick where it doesn't belong.

Good tips used bags with wellies keep your feet warm. Leg warmers under long johns laidies tights for cold nights secret can be kept!

Never seen that knot before! Will definitely be trying it out next time I tie my laces :D My hiking poles always have tape on them too, both duct tape and some of the medically type tape. Comes in useful a lot more than you'd think when you always have it ready.

Tip-tronic! Thanks Haze... 😃

I do the basic double knot but I like that other knot. Great tips!

Excellent advice! Thank you.

we had a health and safety meeting about tying shoe laces at work

That lace one could be so good, just back from doing a munro where my lace came undone four times. Ill be remembering this tip next time

Hi, we used to use the bread bags on the milk round. Dry socks, bread bag, another pair of socks then boots. Toasty Warm :)

A tip video that actually has useful and clever tips! Thank you! That tape one is genius.

Wow thank you so much! Wish I'd have known the laces part last August. Sadly, the jetboil tipped scalding hot water over my trailrunners when we were multiday hiking. The pain was savage! Couldn't get them off quick enough. Gonna remember your tips for this year's Hadrian's wall thru hike in April 😊👍🏕

Nice tips to remember Haze. Thanks and have a great week. Hope you had a great Holiday. Be well and stay safe.

I carry a roll of zinc tape...is goodvon skin to stop rubbing and all sorts

Like the lace tip 🔥

Good tips. My Salomon's boot laces - too long and always come loose- I think they coat them in the same stuff they put on non-stick pans.

Thanks.

Thank you for sharing your video!

Even if you do the double you did 1st, it is quick release if you pull the 2 loose ends, trust me

Vids like this are great I've been having problems with my new hanwag boot laces working lose tried double knots no joy will give this ago cheers

Great video. Thanks for sharing this great video.

Tied my shoe laces for 55 years and been doing it wrong. Every day is a school day!!

Nice one Hazy, I've learned something new today and will now use that method, atb Lee

I was only thinking the other day how much of an arse it is to double tie my laces. That's a new one on me, fanks.

Great gaffer tape tip mate👍

Nearly came a cropper once when the hoop in my lace caught the hook on the other boot, folded my socks down over the top of the boot ever since, scary.

I’m nearly 60 have just learnt to tie my laces properly!

Wholesome just wholesome 👌 tips noted and appreciated

Very informative man, I've only been in the "hiking community" for a year, if I may say so 😂and videos like this help a lot.

Proper top tip on the laces 🙏

67 here and never to old to learn

Interesting..I never knew the double lace technique..cheers for that lad...I even put my shoes on to test it out...nice one.

Simple tips and a simple THANK YOU 👍

I keep old bread bags for home made rolls anyway and other bits. Granny egg - egg Granny ...lol.
