			 Ghillie laces?
			
				
					Somewhere along the line ,I noticed that some one said that a person in a pic didn't know how to tie their ghillies. How do you tie your ghillies? I have the long lace jobs and I don't wish to look foolish. Heaven forbid one of you posts a pic with me not tying them correctly!

					We had a link to a video on the forum some place.Do a search 
 My method
 
 Pull the laces tight  do the first part of a bow like when you tie normal laces.
 
 Take the laces one in each hand and pass from hand to hand 6 times this makes the twist
 
 Pass around the leg and tie a normal bow on the outside of the leg Not in Front the side looks better but there's no rule
 
 I've seen people use hairspray on their hose if they have to walk or march a lot . However I have yet to try this as I don't usually get this problem

					There's a video on Nicholson Higlandwear (one of Viking Technology's sites), but the site is unreachable at the moment.
