Method for lacing a shoe , especially of a sports shoe, wherein the shoe comprises: - an upper , wherein at or on the upper a rotating closure is arranged for lacing the shoe at the foot of the wearer by means of at least one tensioning element , - wherein the rotating closure comprises a rotatably arranged tensioning roller , wherein the tensioning roller is driven by means of an electric motor , - wherein the rotating closure has or comprises furthermore at least one closing button which closing button is connected to a control system which actuates the electric motor , wherein the lacing of the shoe is carried out by the user of the shoe generating a closing signal by means of the closing button , characterized in that the method comprises the steps: - lacing the shoe with a first level of lacing power, resulting in a first tension of the at least one tensioning element , when the user of the shoe generates a first closing signal (S 1 ) by means of the closing button , wherein the first closing signal (S 1 ) is a singular tap on the closing button to which no further tap impulse follows within a predetermined waiting time (t w ), or alternatively - lacing the shoe with a second level of lacing power, resulting in a second tension of the at least one tensioning element , which is higher than the first tension, when the user of the shoe generates a second closing signal (S 2 ) by means of the closing button , which is different from the first closing signal, wherein the second closing signal (S 2 ) is a done twice tap on the closing button , wherein the two tap impulses follow within a predetermined following time (t F ) and wherein no further tap impulse follows within a predetermined waiting time (t W ) to the done twice tap. - an upper , wherein at or on the upper a rotating closure is arranged for lacing the shoe at the foot of the wearer by means of at least one tensioning element , - wherein the rotating closure comprises a rotatably arranged tensioning roller , wherein the tensioning roller is driven by means of an electric motor , - wherein the rotating closure has or comprises furthermore at least one closing button which closing button is connected to a control system which actuates the electric motor , - lacing the shoe with a first level of lacing power, resulting in a first tension of the at least one tensioning element , when the user of the shoe generates a first closing signal (S 1 ) by means of the closing button , wherein the first closing signal (S 1 ) is a singular tap on the closing button to which no further tap impulse follows within a predetermined waiting time (t w ), or alternatively - lacing the shoe with a second level of lacing power, resulting in a second tension of the at least one tensioning element , which is higher than the first tension, when the user of the shoe generates a second closing signal (S 2 ) by means of the closing button , which is different from the first closing signal, wherein the second closing signal (S 2 ) is a done twice tap on the closing button , wherein the two tap impulses follow within a predetermined following time (t F ) and wherein no further tap impulse follows within a predetermined waiting time (t W ) to the done twice tap. <EOS>
