* "None" is valid for various reasons:

You can't knot your shoelaces (you don't know how, or you are physically unable), you don't knot your shoelaces (someone else ties them, or you leave them tied, or you leave them untied), you don't have shoelaces in your shoes (you leave the eyelets empty), you prefer shoes with other methods of fastening (zippers, velcro, etc.) or that don't use any fastening (slipons, sandals, etc.), or you don't even wear shoes (why are you here?).
