Had this happen at work today and my colleagues looked at me like I was a madman for tying both shoes again, instead of just the one that got loose. But doing both shoes again just makes more sense, because you ensure both shoes are equally tight again.

Am I just weird for doing this?

    Depends what shoes I’m wearing and how tight the other one is. If it’s walking boots - the time I care about tying properly - I’ve learnt to accept the already-tied one being a bit looser if it’s at a comfortable tightness and not slipping, knowing the freshly-tied one will adjust to match as I walk. Used to be the asymmetry would drive me mad if I didn’t re-tie both.
