Best Glue?

[twentysix by twentyfive]

Out for a stroll over the local footpaths I felt a bit of drag from one Boot. Seems the sole is coming away from the upper. See pics. Hoping to do a bit more walking (and probably have wet conditions). So what is the best glue (waterproof) to use for this? TIA

Gorilla contact adhesive sticks most things very well.

Any contact adhesive

Should have said - Vibram sole, Scarpa boot

Cobblers.

No really, get 'em to glue it for you.

Shoe Glu around £3.50 for a 55ml tube on eBay

I'll second cobblers. They'll do a job that lasts and it keeps someone in employment.

Is it made from real gorillas?

No, and I've yet to get it to stick to any either

No it’s sold by gorillas

Gorilla glue expands because it is polyurethane, so not always ideal, especially for boots.

Shoe Goo is what I use for boots. Excellent stuff.

I use Evo Stik for repairing training shoes, but it doesn't last very long.

They are good boots. It's worth getting a pro to do a proper job.
