Many years ago I tied my shoes with something called Perry's Perpectual knot[1][2], and then haven't had to retie my shoes since.

At worst the knot will get a bit loose from time to time (like maybe once a year), and then it takes a few seconds to tighten it again.

I expect my shoes will fall apart (they're already pretty old) before this knot unties.

Ian's secure knot (https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/secureknot.htm) has been my go-to for similar purposes, it holds up even to running and other exercise quite well though I re-tie those each time because I like them too tight to slip off. But for daily shoes (which I leave looser and just slip on and off) I've now gone through 3 or 4 pairs in the last 10 years and the shoes or laces always break before the knot comes undone.

Super easy to untie, as well, if needed.
