Skating shoes have become more and more popular, not just among skateboarders but young people at large. If you wear skating shoes with normal laces tied in a criss-cross manner, you're making a major fashion faux-pas. Skating shoes must always sport a "bar tie." A bar tie means all the laces are tied in a flat, bar-like manner, that never cross but are parallel to each other. Once you get used to bar tying, it will become second nature to you.

Insert the aglet, or tip, of your shoelace down through the top left hole of your skating shoe. Pull it through a few inches.
2Run the shoelace through your fingers to make sure it's not twisted. Take the other tip of the shoelace and put it through the top right hole. Pull it through the hole a few inches.
3Hold both aglets in your hand and pull them towards you as much as you can. This motion should create a flat bar made of shoelace at the very top of your shoe. The right and left ends of the shoelace should be of equal lengths. Adjust them if they're not equal.
