Effect-

Amaze your spectators by tying your shoelaces without even touching them! The laces tie themselves! This effect can be performed in shorts!!! Easy to do! Comes complete with detailed instructions and supplies to get you started creating this outstanding illusion!

Method-

I don't really like the method. I have both this and STS and STS's method is way better.

Gimmick-

You have to apply the gimmick to your shoe. You needed to have a needle and I kept poking myself. :(

Setup-

You do the setup once and then never do it again. It took me a while to do.

Reset-

The reset is you untie your laces right in front of the audience. Easy enough.

Pros-

1. Can be done in shorts
2. No extra laces needed
3. It came with almost all the props

Cons-

1. Need to prepare it once
2. Need to where thread on you all day long
3. The Instructions are very poorly written
4. Your shoes are not really tied
5. You need to put things in your shoe

Overall I give this a 3/10. I was very disappointed.
