I've used epoxy for 45 years, set the leg of a chair or table into the heal of the boot -- overnight ---never failed. At least 25 pairs of hiking/work boots always wore out somewhere else. My epoxy black/white supply has lasted 55 years
@@PR-ok7cj i guess his magic 55 year black and white epoxy lasted longer than he did. He's in the glue of the sky.
Epoxy is not flexible enough for shoes repair.
Unless the stiletto patch-up heel piece becomes bone hard to support weight of the wearer, it is likely to fall off.
Also, (unless already done), drilling a small diameter hole into the heel to increase holding strenght fir the filler/build up.
Boots: some of the hollow areas could be filled in to gain better hold between sole piece and shoe.
Many manufacturers now are in effort to save on material in sole pieces.
Any updates about the boots? Did they hold up another year?

Right.. "flexible" is key hear.
Regarding 3:43, if you premix some black pigment into the clear glue as an additive, then after the glue has cured, you no longer have to coat its exterior with a black marking pen or black paint.
On the boots, you can wrap them tight with plastic wrap and reinforce duck tape. That way the duck tape doesn't stick to the boot and you can trim off the excess plastic wrap and glue.
Any updates about the boots? Are they still good after a year?
I've used contact adhesive ('Genkem' .. a South African Brand) for years. Has never failed.
The secret is in the preparation beforehand of the surfaces to be joined, the initial 'clamping' together and then maintaining that pressure for the prescribed time.
Rubber bands don't cut it. It needs serious pressure.
Apply the 'RFM' Function beforehand .. 'Read the Flipping Manual' .. simple.
Contact cement - the original version, not the "improved" junk and what shoe repair shops use has worked for me for years. It's applied with a throw away acid brush. Then I use heavy (1/4" wide) rubber bands overnight to hold the footware together.
Sir, I so love you!! I'm clueless about the heel heel repair & I have nice boot purchased 2/3 years ago and mule heel too. I can repair now with your tip because these shoes are no longer sold & i've not worn often, 4/5 times yearly at most. They're my fave and don't wanna givem' up! Awesome-ness you are!!
2 part epoxy works t00 , You're welcome
This is especially helpful for fixing a cut in the leather on the boot top. Spread a bit under the surface as well as on outside. Phenomenal stuff. Lasts forever.
I orignally used it because I saw that it was what my local shoemaker uses.
Very helpful, this video legit save me so much money and my shoe. Thank you
No.
Use 3M weatherstrip adhesive found at any auto parts or hardware store. Follow the simple directions and it will never separate again.
You can use a Dremel tool to get rid of the glue seepage after it dries. Just be careful.
Very good tips. Thank you.
Thank you, your video is very helpful.
nice video. I had a new pair of work boots I wore outside once and this happened. So far I used silicone and gorilla glue and sanded the sole . Neither worked. Now I will get a tube of Aqua Seal and really fix them...
Use an ACE bandage to clamp the boot together.
I am a diy, if you can sorta person I've used caulking, yes regular ole house/window caulk. It was the only thing I had. So I got the old caulking gun out, squirted and voila! This was on sneakers. It worked.
I have found hot glue and a heat gun work great. Heat the sole side, apply glue stick while keeping the heat on. Heat the shoe side, then reheat the hot glue. This also spreads the glue, you want a thin, even-ish layer. Keep the heat on as you bring both pieces together. Clothespins around the edge, a water bottle filled with lead shot or a bodybuilding free weight sitting on the heel, or you can place the shoe upside down on a pipe or something and put something heavy on top. It takes a while for the glue to cool down as it's insulated.

I am a cobbler, PLEASE DO NOT TRY DOING THE HEEL PART ON THE LADIES HEEL
It’s a great video, but I’d def say this glue on the heel was not a good idea!
Hiee...I've kept sport shoes in hot water.....the shoe sole got separated....is there any solution for thatt

@littlethings7675 You can use a little bit of super glue around the edges and then use strong heat-activated shoe glue and use a heat gun to heat the glue and stick it together. Or go to a cobbler
Could you tell me Sir, which glue is the best for ladies hills ? Thank you in advance.
Thank you, I needed this. I went to a place that mends shoes and they said they couldn't repair my shoes where heel is coming off a bit. So I need to fix them myself. This is really helpful!
I would highly recommend watching this video too: ruclips.net/video/6_f-6beaEyE/видео.html
@@TheLittleWoodHouse how is this repair holding up after a year?
Hey buddy. Is this better than shoo goo? Would like your opinion. Thanks
I wouldn't expect those repairs to last very long. I've had repairs like this done professionaly that only lasted a few wearings.
I used the glue you used. I purchased it by following the link in your show more section. I followed the directions precisely. I allowed it to cure for 4 days. I have had envelopes and stamps that held better than that crap. That stuff is rubbish.
Sorry to hear that, I'm still having good results. It must have been a bad batch.
I recommend barge cement.
Aren't you supposed to apply to both surfaces and allow to dry for a while before clamping them together?
Thanks!
Great job 👍what is the name of the glue.
My working boots happened like but dont know where how to get..what needed to replace that sole bottom?
my dad gave me a pair of military boots that he used 20 years ago during the mandatory servicd thing, the first day i wore them, the sole basically *melted* onto the pavement. I now have no sole to glue on lol.
Thank you for the demonstration.
I used black silicon sealant found in a caulk gun type tube. Worked great.
boot job looks good
stiletto heal I doubt lasted a night out
You can get heals for stiletto
nail and glue
Dig it, I got a 200 pair of low mileage Georgias with vibram sole imma try it thnx
Great how to vid. So 11 months on. Has the repair stayed glued ok?
What kind glue you use
Nice boot! Brand?
Thank your value program and let me know the name of that gum please
Any update on the boots. How are they doing ?
I have a snow boot to repair and I may go with using this product. I'll probably take a black Sharpie and go over the adhesive after it's cured which will also cut down on the sheen of the adhesive. I only have a 3 inch or so area so repair. Thanks for the video:)
How are the boots holding up after a year?
nice you try the boots, I thought you will try the high heels too lol
What is name of the glue?
mantap terima kasih videonya
What if the midsole is perishing, OUTER is perfect as is the leather and they were bad out of the box from Army surplus supplier.
Can i use jb weld ?
Sometimes the glue is visible on new boots too
The best stuff without a doubt is shoe goo
Have used that for years ,even fixed a hole in a steel toe ,filled the hole smoothed it out polished the boots and never leaked .Wore those boots for 3 more years.
I used this glue to fill in some flat spots on a pair of running shoes and it last only three or four runs on pavement. So for me it is not abrasion resistant.
What’s the clamp called u uses to hold the shoe down
I tried to glue and using silicone or textile glue for a loose sole, but when you roll your foot the fixation wears out, so how can this be made lasting longer? would/does cotton material stick on plastic, for how many hours of walking? runners or sportlers shoes won't last long with techniques discovered or shown "to us" so far. How long did your "glueing" last on a shoe that seemed quite cheap? Would elder shoemakers knit the parts together with a saddler needle, attempting to boar holes, so the "mend" rather lasted? boar additional holes to stuff the glue material in?
Until all products would have to be rented? when the work becomes way too expensive? Those tricks often shown on portals like youtube would be all about how durable the turn out. I'd recommend mentionning the time phase of "usability". Since we're not all actors (wanting to depend of) looking good.
After you glue it you put your foot in it and stand still for a bit. Do this when you have time and nothing better to do. Your weight will force it together
Names of tools are used
Let us know when you release the video of you trying out the new heel

Shoe cobblers usually hammer the sole on their last when they glue anything together, to make maximum contact.
That is amazing
Is there anyone I can send my shoes to to be reglued right
What about Shoe Goo?
Yeah, curious as to how this boot repair lasted. Op?
How to repair holes in shoe sole?
FYI: They make high-heel tips.
I've always used shoegoo
Good❤sir
That stilleto heel will come off on the first go. You could put a metal pin down the tube that might help to reinforce it.
I’d say a simple superglue works. I used shoe goo and the results are mixed between the boots I used
What glue did you use?
uhhh, he doesnt say?! im ony 30 seconds in...
contact cement is what you need.
@@-IE_it_yourself it's Aquaseal
it's Aquaseal
Give ius an update please
E6000 is the only glue I would use for this. Contact cement and 'Shoo Goo' was absolutely useless.
I have a shoe that the sole do not stick....is hard to find a cheaper way that works
How has it been holding?
It has been a few days since I've worn it but so far so good.
@@TheLittleWoodHouse how about now?
Don't you need to wait for 10 minutes for the glue to become dry ? and then press it together ?
Can you please give me the name of the glues
I know really.
put shoe last in shoe and wrap with bike inner tube
Barge Cement is what shoemakers and repairers use for this type of work.
Duct tape is also a viable option.
What is the name of the glu
aquaseal
Quality boots would have the sole sewn on to the upper.
Since the woman’s heel didn’t work in the long run, you should have at least added a disclaimer. 😕
I thought he was going to glue a new tip on the heel, not expect the glue to replace it. Silly.
Id like to see those boots after 6 miles on the trail...
Pueden traducir al español??
My cat boots after 7 months now water get in the soles just finished not detached like urs need a fix for that lol
try using electrical pvc tape to bind shoe and sole together ,,, worked well for me
OMG?G!!!! DUDE! You do know that there are pre-made heel caps to repair your wife's high heels! That piece of glue not only won't last you're going to cause her to break an ankle or worse! Shoe heel caps/tips have a metal post on them to secure them in the heel as well as for support from the 1000s of pounds of pressure we put on our shoes when walking. Dude you should have just taken her shoes to a shoe repair shop.
I have fixed them since and made an additional video showing this.
Can Epoxy be used for fixing??
Epoxy gets hard and you need the glue to be flexible
Epoxy is a rigid glue when cured, unsuitable for flex applic.'s like footwear outsoles.
👟🥾👢Stich the surrounding when you buy the new one it won't torn out ever
Tried Shoe Gloo and it fell apart after a few days of use.
Prolly should have used a qtip for the heel🤔
In Romanian is not exist this a gloo saw strong.

what about hott glue gun
I doubt it will last very long
That glue is a total waste of time and money for a repair like that. You probably already have the the right glue in your workshop. Contact Cement. NOT the clear model glue in a tube. It comes in a can or a brown glass bottle. It looks like snot and the smell will knock you out, so use it outside. It's super easy to do. Apply the glue to BOTH surfaces, you must Let it dry for 15 minutes or it won't work. Then stick both surfaces together. No clamps or rubber bands needed. You will not be able to redo it if you mess up so pay attention. It's that strong. This is the right way to do a repair like that. I fix shoes
So you let the contact cement sit for 15 min , THEN stick them together?
@@charlieq2012 - Yes. Apply contact cement to both surfaces- let them dry for 15 minutes- then *carefully* press them together. I say carefully, because you'll only have one shot at it. The bond is that strong- you won't be able to redo so line everything up perfectly before pressing them together. FYI: (((Contact cement is usually tan color and rubbery. Don't make the mistake of using model glue which is often labeled contact cement, but totally different. (clear usually)))
Might super glue had fixed the boot too?
The glue needs to be flexible, so probably not
Ha un arma nascosta nelle scarpe
So I guess don’t know that you replace the metal and heel portion with new ones. Just fyi
I learned later and made a second video
"...some of this..." What ?
Put your foot and press:)
not a word about what type of glue ............................................duh
Should get your wife to test it out.
???maybe a shoe tree might help might help the boot straight.
He does wear heals and his feet are tiny!
Take it to a shoe repair shop.
At $40+ ... Right.
À tip: to fix your broken shoes, go to the cobbler.
Here’s a tip for you, keep your mouth shut.
