Today is a loose-shoelace day.
I only have 2 pairs of shoes that have laces (not including my cleats) and all my other shoes are lace free. I’m just not a fan of laces. What can I say?
All the time I’m wearing these shoes that are loose and comfortable on my feet, and I never have to worry if they’re tied or not. They only have two operations: on and off. So when I do wear shoes with laces, I always lace them up tightly. I like to be sure when the laces come untied.
But some days I like to tie the laces as loosely as possible, and today is one of those days. I feel like I’m wearing marshmallows instead of shoes, and it feels pretty good. I’m not really concerned about the laces coming untied, and I don’t really care if they do. I think I’d just let them drag on the ground.
Is it a sign of anal-retention to tie your laces tightly, or a sign of slovenliness to want to keep them tied loosely, or have them untied completely? I’m not sure. All I know is that I felt it especially important for me to be comfortable to day, and that meant wearing my laces loose.
