How to Tie Baseball Pants

Properly securing the drawstring of baseball pants with a solid knot is very important. It will save you the embarrassment of your pants slipping down in the middle of a game and before the crowds, and it will also make you look more professional. Pants that don't ride loose and low on your waist look better, and the cuffs won't slip under your heels, getting dirty. A simple shoelace bow is a good choice because it won't slip out and is an easy knot to tie.
