+1. I retie my shoes every time I wear them because I prefer them quite tight, but Ian's secure knot almost never comes untied. I usually only retie while wearing if I didn't tie my shoes tight enough in the first place.

Also on my Solovair boots, I used quick tight lacing [0], which gives you the outer "straight lacing" appearance but also allows you to make the boots very tight without spending 5 minutes to tie them. The main issue with this technique is that the laces can shift, but I marked the center of the laces with a Sharpie to serve as a guide.
