I preach this knot to everyone I can. I'm a runner and a running coach. I've run literally thousands of miles (approaching 10,000 at this point) with this knot and it has NEVER come undone.

The really nice thing about this knot is that it looks really nice too so you can use them on both running shoes and dress shoes.

It makes no sense to teach the more common shoe tying knots.

Young children have poor finger dexterity making this knot untenable.

You can go even further with this knot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gm5ItoIJ4sg Which is a slow and poor knot but you can do it with even one finger on each hand.
