Shoe Goo is terrible. I used it to repair a pair of sandals that the soles were peeling on. Lasted about five minutes. Gorilla Glue does work nicely in this situation but is terrible for filling gaps like side to side cracks in your soles. By far the best Ive seen is PermaPoxy 1minute but is quite pricey and can be hard to find. PL500 also works excellent for both gaps and bonding soles. Its a silicone base (waterproof) and is used in construction to hang sheets of drywall on concrete walls (very, very strong) Ive used it to fix side to side cracks in my Doc Martins and months later still holding up

I've tryed all glues these VERY THICK rubber soles come completely off shoe can't find ANYTHING TO STICK soon as I wear 5 min. Come complexly off again

hello my name is sarah i have a broken sole on my shoes and i was wondering if i could use nail glue to solve the problem many thanks

Hi, think this video needs more thought. has no closeup during the process either of the shoe, the bottle of glue nor any results after the repair.

hello! classifying glues & adhesives into different types is indeed a very good way to put order into the confusing array of commercial glues & adhesives. will you kindly include, if available, with the common name of the glue/adhesive its generic or simple chemical name (not the long-drawn technical chemical name). thank you!

Professional shoe repair shops and shoe factories generally use Barge cement, which is a toluene based glue, i believe. It needs to remain open to dry and both surfaces need to be coated. I don't know if shoo goo is similar or is just more like rubber cement. gorilla glue seems to be touted as the stuff to use, but it is not universally used in shoe repair and I have seen shoes with gorilla glue all over them come apart. It is almost impossible to remove for future repair. It may be similar to Goodyear's Pliobond which is MEK based and was developed to glue the layers of tires together. It will bond to almost anything but is a volatile chemical and should only be used with very good ventilation.

Is there a glue that could affix a rubber toe strap on my Keen sandals that simply "broke" right off the base with no stem or leading edge on the sole? I have another pair where the strap pulled out of the hole and I cannot get the big base of the toe strap back into the hole. But mainly I want to know if there's a fast acting, strong enough adhesive that I wouldn't have to go to great lengths to hold in place and would stand the strain of being the toe strap? Thanks

Excellent work describing the shoe repair process and discussing different shoe materials and solutions!!! I have great news! There's a company that is bringing the type of glue that shoe repair professionals use to the retail market. Their shoe repair glue was specifically formulated for the shoe repair industry. The professionals don't use Gorilla Glue and Shoe Goo. They use a professional strength flexible cyanoacrylate (super glue) that holds better than the original manufacturer's glue. Shoe manufacturers don't use it because it's too expensive but it's cheaper for use to buy some professional shoe repair glue than it is to buy a new pair of shoes, boots, or even sandals. Shoe-Fix Glue is not in stores yet but you can buy it on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Shoe-Fix-Shoe-Glue-Professional-Repair/dp/B01G8D69FW?ie=UTF8&redirect=true&ref_=silver_xx_cont_revecalc You're welcome!
