About Me

Ian Fieggen first became interested in shoelaces in 1982 when, at the age of 20, a broken-shoelace incident prompted him to analyze the humble shoelace knot. This led to the development of a better way to tie shoes, the Ian Knot, and set in motion Ian's lifelong fascination with shoelaces. Ian's quarter-century of shoelace research culminated in Ian's Shoelace Site, which Sneaker Freaker magazine called "the best shoelace site in the universe," and has been featured in Entertainment Weekly, Esquire, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, and other magazines, newspapers, and websites from around the world. Ian lives in Melbourne, Australia, where he often goes by "Professor Shoelace."..
