I have a problem. At 52 my sneakers are constantly becoming untied. I have never in my life had this problem. When I told Shelley Miles about it, she took one look at my sneakers and said, "You have round laces, no wonder". Shelley would know about sneakers, she's in the Maine Maritime Academy, and MDI Hall of Fame for her basketball accomplishments.

Hello? I never knew there was a difference. But as I looked and then thought about all my other sneakers in my life, I always had flat laces. Am I the only one that never knew about this? What else do you all know that I don't know?

Guess I'll be double knotting my sneaker laces until I buy some flat laces!
