Fixing shoes?

Posted on
  • Basically, the stitching is going around the toes on one of my cycling shoes (I do some sort of weird big toe raising thing with my left foot, so I guess this was inevitable) and I wondered if anyone had any advice on fixing them. They are about a month out of warranty and I need a dated receipt when I send 'em back, so that's no good.

    Advice appreciated.

  • cobblers

  • It's all cobblers.

  • too slow.

  • i do these things to my skate shoes to get more life out of them, you could do all of them or a mixture if you want. super glue over stiching, beware it does make suede go rigid. hot glue from a glue gun adds strength and works well attaching other bits of material to the shoe, apply liberally. other bits of material, cut into circular patches then hot glue them on dont forget to put glue over the sides as well so they dont flap.

    this can make your shoes look trampy but oh well, it can work.
