One-handed shoe tying

I never learned this and I probably never will. I use velcro. But if you want to here are a bunch of videos teaching it or conversion kits to velcro. Good luck.

  1. Thanks,that was great to see. Am currently doing the one-handed thing some days & velcro on others. Always good to see how others do it - tips are always welcomed. As with everything, with persistence it gets easier over time.
