Scope
GB/T 38013-2019 is the English-translated version of 鞋类 鞋带试验方法 抗松脱性能.
China's national test method for the knot slippage of shoelaces. It specifies the principle, the equipment, the specimens and the procedure. A lace that will not hold a knot is one of the small failures that ruins a shoe for its wearer, and it is entirely a property of the lace rather than of the shoe.
The variable is surface friction between the lace against itself: a flat woven cotton lace holds a bow indefinitely, while a round lace of smooth synthetic filament works loose within a few hundred steps, because each step flexes the knot slightly and a low friction surface lets it creep.
The problem became commoner as laces moved to polyester and nylon for durability and colour, and it is worse in the running and outdoor shoes where a lace coming undone matters most.
Measuring it means cycling a tied knot under repeated load and recording how far it slips, which is what this method fixes.

Footwear - Test Methods for Shoelace -Knot Slippage Property 1 Scope
This Standard stipulates the test methods for shoelace in knot slippage property. This Standard is applicable to shoelaces made of various textures.
2 Normative References
The following documents are indispensable to the application of this document. In terms of references with a specified date, only versions with a specified date are applicable to this document. In terms of references without a specified date, the latest version (including all the modifications) is applicable to this document.

3 Terms and Definitions
The following terms and definitions are applicable to this document.
3.1 Loose Loose refers to the process of the loosening and slippage of shoelaces that are fastened.
3.2 Bowknot Bowknot refers to the mode of tying the knot of shoelace into the shape of a butterfly, as it is shown in Figure 1.
4 Principle
Pre-tie a bowknot or a knot with the shoelace; adopt tensile machine, use fixed load, to fasten the bowknot or the knot. Then, adopt the tensile machine to pull and loosen the bowknot or the knot. Record the maximum force that is needed during the loosening process of the shoelace; the result shall be expressed in (N).
5 Test Equipment 5.1 Tension Test Machine
Tension test machine shall comply with the requirements in GB/T 16825.1-2008; accuracy shall at least be Grade-2; movement speed shall at least be (10 ± 1) mm/min; it shall be able to automatically record the force value.
5.2 Molding Plate Molding plate refers to resin plate (dimensions: around 60 mm 115 mm
1.5 mm) which is used to fixate shoelace.
5.3 Straight Steel Ruler The measuring range of straight steel ruler shall be not lower than 300 mm, accurate to 1 mm.
6 Sample and Conditioning 6.1 Sample
Sample shall be 3 intact shoelaces without any flaws or ruptures.
6.2 Sample Conditioning Before the test, place all the samples under the conditions of the reference standard environment that complies with the stipulations in GB/T 22049-2019; conduct sample conditioning for at least 24 h.
