Taking Off Your Shoes

I know it's tempting to just skip the whole untying step, but it's important.

Even though you can just put the toe of one of your feet against the heel of the other one, and pop the foot out without untying the shoe, and then, later, stick your foot back in there and wiggle it until the shoe is all the way on, I think it might be important to untie and then re-tie the shoes.

All that wiggling subjects the shoe to more stress than it's accustomed. Take the extra time, your shoes will thank you.
