Why Do Shoe Laces Suddenly Open: You must be wearing shoes! Many times it would happen to you that the laces of your shoes open while walking. Once or twice you might have felt that you might not have tied the shoelaces properly! Next time you tie tight shoelaces but they open again. Even if you do not pay attention to this and you must consider it as a normal thing. But it is not normal for your shoe laces to open.

As a child, you must have been taught to tie shoe laces! Parents or elders of the house definitely teach the children to tie shoelaces. You must have also learned to tie shoe laces during school days. From then till today you must have been tying the shoelaces and the incident of opening it while walking must have happened to you too! Even while running and playing, it does not seem very strange, but suddenly it is surprising to open the shoelaces while walking.

Let us tell you that a science works behind the opening of shoe laces. A research study has been done in this regard at the University of California, USA. The reasons which have come out in the report of this research in 17 pages have solved this mystery. This research has been done by Christine Gregg, Christopher Daly-Diamond and Oliver O’Reilly.

In this research, it was found that the laces open even after being tied properly. This happens when the body does some activity. That is, we are playing, running, walking or doing any other work involving physical activity. During this, the knot of the lace loosens and opens. But how does this happen?

Gravity is the reason: According to this research report, when a person is walking, running, then his body comes in contact with a force 7 times more than gravity. In such a situation, the earth also returns the same force. Newton has also told in his law. Now in such a situation, the muscles of the foot bear this force, but due to this force, the laces of the shoes become loose. When the foot falls back on the ground, there is pressure on the knot and when it rises in the air, the knot becomes loose. Due to repeated exposure to such pressure changes, the shoelaces open.
