The magician borrows a finger ring from an audience member. The ring is simply touched to the shoe laces near the toe of the shoe, the very bottom of the laces. Impossibly the ring penetrates the shoelace and is linked on with absolutely no cover right in the middle of the laces. To get the ring off, the magician visibly plucks the tied bow of the laces off the top of the shoe and reattaches the knot at the point in the laces where the ring is linked. Then, in an unbelievable moment, the shoe laces are untied, and the ring is returned to the spectator. The magician can then retie the laces, move the knot back to the top of the shoes, and even untie them again to prove the knot actually moved.
