Always loosen the lace prior to putting workout shoes & while taking them off. Else, you will make them flabbier & gradually unsuitable for the next workout.

Many people are in a rush to get to the shower after a workout, so they just take off the shoes without first undoing the lace. This is not how you should treat your workout shoe. Instead, you should loosen the lace prior to putting the shoes and while taking them off as well. Otherwise, you just make them flabbier and in poor condition for the next workout.
