ABSTRACT:
A shoelace securing method includes, initially, threading the free end portions of a pair of shoelaces, emanating from a tightly laced region on the shoe, upwardly through a main passageway formed in a securing device by passing the free end portions into an open bottom end and out of an open top end of the passageway of the securing device, next, routing the free end portions of the pair of shoelaces from the open top end of the passageway of the securing device forwardly to and downwardly through an auxiliary passageway formed in a forward edge portion of the securing device, and, finally, tightly wrapping the free end portions of the pair of shoelaces around the shoelaces adjacent to the open bottom end of the main passageway of the securing device between a bottom side of the securing device and the tightly laced region of the shoe.
