Tying my Shoes, French Style

February 27th, 2018

I ordered a pair of shoes, and they arrived with the laces laced in the typical menswear style of parallel lines (sometimes called "straight European"), but with a twist:  the bow was in the middle.  Not sure if it was a mistake, but I like it!  (Some menswear experts will advise tucking in the bow after tying the shoe, which is more difficult with the bow in the middle, but I'm not that much of a dandy.)

Now, we're off to the great Frozen North, aka Swedish Lapland, for some cross-country skiing and Northern Lights spotting, we hope.
