PaistelyShoe Glue Sole Repair, Slow-Drying Transparent Repair Glue, Waterproof, Non-Hardening Shoes Soles, Professional Repairing Worn Shoes, Boots, Leather, etc., 60 ml

I do leafleting, so do a lot of hard walking every week. I had a pair of walking shoes, the soles of which came off and flapped around, but the shoe-menders refused to fix them because they said they were supposed to be single-units. Initially, I managed to get the store to offer me another pair, but after a few months of hard-walking, they too separated sole from shoe.I didn't want to get new ones and they were past the guarantee/swap time, so I went looking for good glue and found this one. It has worked brilliantly. The first fix (on both pairs) worked a dream. They stuck together for absolutely ages, but eventually the toes of the soles came away again. Unfortunately, because of the actual shoe itself, that it wasn't a separately stuck on sole originally, the base of the main shoe was not designed for re-soleing. However, I just use this glue whenever they come apart, and I get to keep my really super-comfortable shoes, with just a minor inconvenience of glueing them whenever they separate.Now, just to be clear, the glue itself works really well. It's flexible and strong and tough. I am buying it again, because it works so well (about to buy for the third time). I mistreat my walking shoes a lot, so the fact they hold together, when the shoes themselves are so badly designed, and only need re-doing every couple of months is a very good sign the glue is doing its job.

Works very well, and now seems to be holding my boots together. Only time will tell.

The instructions are easy to follow and the nozzle is very good so that you do one waste any glue. The bond was very good on a pair of football boots where the sole had come away.

I bought this product to sort my shoe that the The hill has fallen off, and it worked ..

Can't really review the product, only the description. As it says sole repair, I understood it to be able to be used to replace a full/complete sole. On receiving, and reading the instructions, I became doubtful as to its suitability. Seller responded quickly to say it is only suitable for 'light repairs'. Note : the box states that it has a shelf life of 2 years, and the date should be printed in the back of the box, it wasn't on mine. The process to use appears to be convoluted, "clean and polish(!) the bonding surface, sand(!) the two sides (roughness determines the bond). Thinly spread on both sides and leave 5-8mins to dry. Heat with a hair dryer for 30secs, and stick together immediately ... have fun with that, I am sending back :)

Excellent glue

Tried on three different shoes, so different materials etc. followed the instructions to the letter - which are easy to follow and contain steps I wouldn’t have considered had I not read them, but they simply did not stick the soles of the shoes to the shoe upper, and it didn’t seem to matter whether that was leather, pleather or plastic.On that note, it takes a really long time to cure, so expect to be holding stuff in place for a while, because the supplies bands on their own don’t cut it. It’s a long slow process!The glue smell isn’t overly potent, but equalled by its lack of stickiness.

Worked well fixing a small split in the side of a sole of a pair of DMs
