Idk man, but there are people who use their socks and shoes only once. Oh and some don’t really untie their shoes to put it on and then tie it, they just force their feet in. And when they’re done with it they force their feet out.
I feel personally attacked. What’s wrong with having the shoes already tied and forcing the feet in? Some shoes are cushioned enough to allow this, it’s a massive timesaver and it doesn’t feel any different from tying the laces every time.
I do use my shoes and socks many times though, I only have two pairs of shoes.
I tie my shoes in a hidden knot bushwalk style and cut the ends of the laces off. They stay tied until I buy new shoes. I have a 3 foot long shoe horn to put them on. I guarantee I have saved at least a day of messing with shoes by the time I buy new ones after 2-3 years and it is super convenient as I walk out the door, which is more important than the time saved.
I always take my shoes of inside, but say it saves 10 seconds for a pair of shoes. If you do that 3 times per day that adds up to around 3 hours saved per year. That’s not what I’d call a massive timesaver.
You can just put rubber bands as laces, then you don’t have to tie them, and you don’t really have to force your feet in either. I mean they do make laces like that specifically too, but buying some elastic band and just using that works well enough
I tie most of my casually worn running shoes tight just loose enough that I can slip them on and off without tying them, not because it saves time but because it is just the right tension to feel good and is convenient.
Dress shoes and boots get tied each time because they don’t work that way.

I fail to see how this would save more than a couple of seconds per time you put your shoes on

It does save a lot of time in cultures that expect shoes off in some indoors places.
