Shoe Repair With Shoe Goo

[@HangTimeDeluxe]

This is some great stuff! I knew it worked well when I saw one of my engineering professors using it to repair a pair of work boots many years ago. This is the correct adhesive for shoe repair!

[@Scorch1028]

I find that Shoe Goo is better for busted seams on shoes than it is for repairing cracks and holes on the bottom of my sneakers.

[@charlesvictoria6800]

This is a lifesaver. My Jordan 11’s had sole separation and it broke my heart. After hearing about shoe goo and applying it (and letting it cure for 3 days) they’re as good as new!

[@AroundTheHome1]

That's awesome!

[@ajsoreal9716]

That what I need to do for my jordan Black Cats need a nice fix me upper

[@michaelmolter8828]

I got much better adhesion by rubbing both sides of the sole down with isopropyl alcohol and a disposable microfiber cloth. It removed a lot of the dust that couldn't be removed with water a paper towel.

[@AroundTheHome1]

Good tips.

[@THXIIIRTEEN]

I thought this was common knowledge? Prep surface is the most important part of a re glue. You can’t expect a shoe to hold well if the surface has debris or old glue. You have to clean the surface where the glue will go on.

[@cuahutemocmoctezuma5055]

Removing laces and putting a 5lb or 10lb dumbbell works great to help hold shoe down.

[@vickisnemeth7474]

The instructions on the back of the package say to work in a well-ventilated room, but you seem fine in your kitchen. It's as if they were just exaggerating to avoid getting sued by the odd sensitive person. I'm glad we have KZbin nowadays to tell us these things, or I would never have found a place to do my repair. I live in a cold place that's outside of the setting temperature range, so going outside wasn't the simple answer.

[@AroundTheHome1]

Pretty much any glue will say that. Now I'm not going to say go against the manufacturers safety suggestions, but I will say it is not that stinky. Less stinky then using 100% silicone caulking.

[@jaytm6719]

My guy, thank you. My Reebok royal high tops sole just came most of the way off and I've been looking for the best glue to use on it. My soles look similar to your daughters so I was unsure. Doesn't seem like Nike, Jordan's, etc use a sole like him.

Thank you for the recommendation! I need new heels on dress boots. Those fancy shoe repair guys won’t say what kind of glue to buy. I’ll follow your shipping link. Thanks!!

[@AroundTheHome1]

Sounds great, thanks for watching! 💖

[@jimdavis5849]

Thanks for sharing this info. I had no idea if Shoe Goo was good until I saw your video.

[@felisd]

Can Shoe Goo also fix cracks in the top of the boot (like the part of the boot on the top of your foot)? I have a great pair of snow boots, but the rubber around the foot is cracked on one boot. If I put a couple of coats on (curing 24 hrs between), would it be a good patch?

[@AroundTheHome1]

I've never tried fixing cracks in that area, but I think it could.

[@andyallan2909]

Thanks for posting this. I bought the glue a while ago but have been reluctant to use it incase I did the wrong thing and ruined the shoes. This was because the 'how to use' instructions on the back of the card are written in type so tiny that they (the instructions) might as well not be there.

[@AroundTheHome1]

Glad I could help!

[@BrookElsewhere]

how long did the sole last after using this glue?

[@AroundTheHome1]

Three years. I just re-glued it 2 months ago for my daughter. And these are some of her favorite boots.

[@andrewdeussing692]

anyone whose skateboarded knows the value of shoe goo. Constant scraping on grip tape can rip a new pair of shoes fast. This stuff was a lifesaver back in the day and now later in my life, I'm extending the life of my moccasins. It is not overly sticky and messy like some adhesives and you can smear and mold with just some light moisture on your finger. It dries to be a similar rubber to the soles of your shoes. It comes in clear and black, however I'm sure with some pigment you can color the clear.

[@AroundTheHome1]

😎

[@schooloflifedropout6662]

Exactly ,i used to apply it to brand new shoes before skating with them ,makes them last twice as long

What about multiple coats for better adhesion?

[@DanielGrimes]

Love this kind of straight-up demo, thank you!

[@AroundTheHome1]

You are so welcome!

[@Xcorgi]

With the average price of shoes getting near $200.00 per pair, this is a real money saver!

[@AroundTheHome1]

It really can. My daughter got a few more years out of those. Works great.

[@Xcorgi]

@@AroundTheHome1 I’ve got a $200.00 pair of New Balance shoes where the soles are coming off. This never used to happen from the 80’s on back because they’d glue the entire surface on the soles. Today they only put it on the outer rim. You just know they’re doing this to force people buy another pair way before the treads wear out. I’ll definitely be getting some of this to fix mine. Thanks for posting.

[@Spectre.007]

No need for drying before bonding?

[@errolwirasinghe]

Some folks (videos) suggest keeping the two surfaces apart till the glue is tacky, before sticking together! Any thoughts?

[@AroundTheHome1]

I know that this technique is used when installing Vinyl tiles, among other things. I have always used the Shoe Goo the way I show in this video with no complaints. But the weight is needed to keep it from moving. It is possible that waiting for it to tack up would require less hold from weights then when done the way I do it.

[@nathanparrish834]

I have a pair of hunting boots that recently came apart after hunting and I don’t want to throw them out I’m going to try using this I’ll update in a couple days hopefully if I’m able to repair it using this or some similar

[@AroundTheHome1]

I hope this works for you! 👍😎

[@greatvedas]

I had a mishap and my right cycling shoe, hit the chain rings, so got slightly ripped and got 3 holes. Can you suggest a way to seal it up? To seal it up, some sort of rubber like glue Any response much appreciated.

[@AroundTheHome1]

Well, the shoe goo can probably help you with that too. Here is a video of a young man fixing his skate shoes. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqrEdZmmYqqVgLM

[@greatvedas]

@@AroundTheHome1 thanks a lot for the wonderful suggestion. I am gonna do the same.

[@lolohayma]

Thanks for your help but you did not say if you need to apply the glue on the upper and lower part of the shoe

[@AroundTheHome1]

I only apply it to the sole so that I know that the glue will stay inside that area and not be visible.

[@marlenebanuelos2610]

Using this on a platform sandals that have holes inside the sloe 😭using half the tube will up date

[@AroundTheHome1]

Wow, well good luck. I would love to hear if you can rebuild them.

So is that shoe still holding together?? did your daughter have any problems with it?? -Thanks

[@AroundTheHome1]

It has been about 2 months since we did the repair. She wears these boots a lot during the winter. So far no problems at all. She also doesn't unlace them, she just steps on the heal and pulls them off, so they are not being babied.

Greetings; I have a pair of “ Drench” Dr Martens Rubber Boots(unfortunately discontinued)… love them for gardening. Well the polyurethane or some poly type sole separation to the bottom of the boot. I’m trying to research “glues” that may be applied to that material. I hope you may enlighten me to this glue or something similar that will fix my issue. Thank you for any attention to this message; truly grateful for any assistance:) Sincerely 🕊🙏 Barbara

[@AroundTheHome1]

Barbara, I understand your feelings about a good pair of boots. This is honestly the best glue for shoes that I have found. But if you have a specific question, please ask the company. Here is a link to they website. eclecticproducts.com/product/shoe-goo/

[@sponsler]

Just tried some on otherwise perfectly nice nike walking shoes, using..the two front legs from a heavy end table to put the shoes under after gluing to 'hold it fast, and left it on the shoes (one shoe under each leg of the end table) for just short of 72 hours; getting ready to give them a try right how (a walk). Will see how long it holds, fingers crossed.

For over a year now it's been hard to get anything done with my "fingers crossed" 🤞🏼 (hee hee). So how'd it go?

[@fredcdobbs823]

Apply adhesive to both surfaces?

[@AroundTheHome1]

I mean if you want to. I generally just do the sole of the shoe so that I know the glue will be in the sole area and not outside and showing.

[@blondiexox]

I have a pair of wedge heels that I've had for years & when I say years I mean from like from the early 2000s lol but I only wore maybe 2 times & the last time I wore them the soles completely detached from the shoe. I was so upset because I cant find these heels anymore & just couldn't allow myself to throw them away since they are still in really good condition so I was just gonna bring them somewhere & have them fixed but after seeing this video I know I could just fix them & it will most likely be so much cheaper. No idea how much it even cost to have shoes fixed but thank you for this!!!

You can use Shoe Goo to build up a worn sole it just takes time. I've owned many tubes of this stuff since the 80s, comes in clear or black. The company is very helpful so you could also call them. If it has to be white you can use Angelus pait.

It says you can put it as a protective coating. Does this mean you could put it on a new boot to prevent or delay the sole tearing off in the first place?

Paperweight not glass thing..

[@Monkeybongoes]

Looks like you didn't use much on that boot. Gluing the edges of a detached sole is enough to hold it in place (opposed to gluing the whole surface of the sole)?

[@AroundTheHome1]

No, I would definitely glue through the whole surface. Just don't over apply the glue or it will just ooze all over the place when you push it together. My daughter still wears these boots and no problems. Thank you for watching. Check out hundreds more of our videos at www.aroundthehome.org

It's not a good pair of shoes if the sole of the shoe becomes detached from the bottom of the shoe after a month of moderate wear...its a pos!

[@HangTimeDeluxe]

For a sole detachment, this adhesive is ideal for reattachment. While your statement may be true, if omits the fact that sometimes inexpensive items fail due to poor assembly, or, in the case of a shoe, sub-standard adhesive, or maybe not enough of it. If a sole detachment is the only issue, a $5.00 tube of Shoe Goo is typically less expensive than buying a new pair of shoes.

[@Scorch1028]

As far as using Shoe Goo for holes in the bottom of your shoes, Shoe Goo is NOT rubber, and it can never take the place of rubber. I say this because I put Shoe Goo on the bottom of my worn sneaker soles, let it dry, and my sneakers' soles cracked after just 2 miles of walking on them. So, I cleaned the sneakers, and I put more Shoe Goo on the soles, and let it dry. Then I put E6000 glue over top of the dried Shoe Goo. Then I let "that" dry, and I placed JB Weld epoxy over top of the two dried glues on the soles of my sneakers. The result was that all of that dried glue and epoxy "cracked", so I was left with the same large holes in my sneaker soles. The only difference was, that those holes were now surrounded by the cracked, dried adhesive. Again, no glue or epoxy can take the place of real rubber. Now, when the rubber wears off the bottoms of my sneakers, I donate them to Sneaker.Impact.

[@barneyrubble4827]

You should have glued a layer of rubber or other mayerial to the bottoms if it was that important to extend their lives. That would have worked
