Shoe-FixGlue – Professional Grade Waterproof Shoe Repair Adhesive | Extra Strong, Instant Bond & Flexible | Clear Drying & Durable | Ideal for Shoes, Boots, Sneakers, Heels & More (20g Tube)

Using this in conjunction with self-adhesive rubber soles to make leather-soled shoes more grippy. Done several pairs now and they are holding up well. Just have to make sure all the edges are glued down tight and nothing is flapping about. Even used on a small leather tear on the vamp to glue the leather back together - extremely sparingly on a dark coloured leather, managed to make it work too, so quite versatile.

After two trips to the professional Cobblers local to me and the new soles they installed peeling off within one week, I decided to try this glue and do the job myself. Easy enough to apply. I'm impressed so far, it's probably been three weeks now since using it and no sign of the soles coming loose at all. I would definitely recommend based on my own experience.

It has glued the sole of my walking shoe back on but I do wonder if it's anything more than expensive super glue.

I had a couple of pairs of foot ware that needed attention.. slightly coming away at the sole etc.. the one actually quite bad, considering they were essentially brand new, however I did not have the time to even negotiate a return.. it is such a faff sometimes!! Therefore I opted for a repair myself. Although there were some mixed reviews about the product, I decided to try the glue having read online it was the best available. I must say it took a little getting to grips with the technique required, however the results were superb. You really have to give a good clamping pressure for the allotted time of 45 seconds, and you are good to go. The adhesion is superb, and I have worn my repaired trainers and boots with no issue since. Wipe the excess as soon as possible to prevent any staining. It definitely is not a basic glue by any means as others have indicated, the way it adheres is far superior and the results are excellent.

A pair of abused, teenage boys school shoes started losing their sole four weeks before the end of term. Bought this and it saved me from having to buy a new pair before end of term. Still going strong months later and he's still abusing them even though they were definitely not designed for football. Very pleased!

I had little hopes, as I've tried before to glue back together soles that are coming off skater kind of shoes, with no success whatsoever. I even tried once taking a pair of those shoes to a shoemaker, thinking that maybe he would have a special kind off glue or press that would do the job, only for the sole to come off one or two days later instead of immediately. Well, this thing worked. Both pair of shoes I've tried it on are still holding. Not even water leaks in during rainy days, which was the most annoying part of the sole being partially separated from the shoe. Very happy with the product.

The glue is amazing definitely will glue rubber

This product worked great and has a nice screw cap to allow reuse. However I thought I it was some specialised shoe adhesive. It's basically identical to superglue (which is a lot less expensive and which I had already).
