How long does it take you to tie your shoes?
« on: December 22, 2016, 12:42:35 AM »
I wear slip ons, so I'm not sure, but is it possible to untie laces, remove your shoes, or them back on again and you're them in less than 2 minutes?

In an unrelated question: I only own desktops, so I don't know, but how long does it take to remove a laptop from a bag, and then place it back inside?

Please don't kill me for the new thread, but I'm almost certain there is no thread that discusses these points in astonishing depth and length.

TIA.

Everything is on DDF.
Its a ratio. Approx 1.5 minutes for every 40 lbs of body weight. So if you weigh 160 lbs, should take about 8 minutes.
YMMV.

This is for men, not sure about women or giraffes.

I'd say just about 20-25 seconds. I'll verify it in the morning.
Eta: a little longer when holding a laptop out of its bag and a carry on.
I'm not who you think I am.

Don't forget you have to change your socks and handi-wipe your feet unless you are comfortable wearing those disease infested socks from walking on that floor. It takes me between 17-20 minutes but I also wipe between the toes.

Its an undisputable fact (amongst those that know fact and design ) that lace ups dress shoes look better with a suit than loafers. For that reason I wear them on shabbos.

Sure, if the alternative is slip on tennis shoes.

I totally agree but there's nothing like not having to bend down and tie your shoes.

Correct, for shabbos I'll go the extra mile. weekdays I wear slip-ons. I'm a Kohen and I live in Israel so I really feel the difference.

Yes but that's not why I don't have to bend down to tie my shoes . I don't bend down cause I wear slip ons.
