If you spur your shoes with the heel lock, your feet are more protected and it can even reduce the bubble formation.
As RAZ shows, you can "lock" your heels by threading the shoelaces through the additional hole on the same side as the previous hole and forming a loop.Then you thread the shoelaces of the opposite side through this loop and do the same with the other side.Then you lace together your shoes as normal.
The procedure is simple, but many tictokers were amazed.
"Why do we only learn that now?" Asked a user.
"You should teach that in physical education," added another.
"Fortunately, I don't run," someone else joked.
