We had a link to a video on the forum some place.Do a search
My method
Pull the laces tight do the first part of a bow like when you tie normal laces.
Take the laces one in each hand and pass from hand to hand 6 times this makes the twist
Pass around the leg and tie a normal bow on the outside of the leg Not in Front the side looks better but there's no rule
I've seen people use hairspray on their hose if they have to walk or march a lot . However I have yet to try this as I don't usually get this problem

There's a video on Nicholson Higlandwear (one of Viking Technology's sites), but the site is unreachable at the moment.

I don't own a pair yet....but I've been told...pull laces tight and make 6 twist for the front (twist..twist laces over each otherl ike rope), wrap lace around to back of leg , make another 3 twist,around to front and tie.....I was told pipers and band marchers will tie on the side of the leg under the flashes.....just for flash....so the frilly end swings more....LOL
