Shoe Goo Repair Adhesive for Fixing Worn Shoes or Boots, Clear, 3.7 Ounce (109.4mL), 10 Snip Tip Applicator Tips and Pixiss Spreader Tools Set

This is a super product. My current project is building up the sole heels on an expensive pair of loafers. As the sole is a rubber the heels wore down. I built them back up to the level they were at, perfect repair. Two comments. First, some reviewers, especially on the videos complained the screw on adaptors were to large and just slipped onto the thread. It is true that they will slip over BUT THEN WHEN ALL THE WAY DOWN THEY WILL ENGAGE. The users just didn’t go far enough. second, They complained it was too thick to go through the tube. True if you are using a large stream, the better way is to just skip the nozzle, dump a wad out of the tube and the use the plastic spreaders to pick up what you need to apply. Works much better this way

I bought this to repair my golf shoes. The uppers were still in great condition but the sole had separated in places on both shoes. I used the shoe goo to reattach the sole to the uppers. It worked for a while but separated again (around the toe area). I used the shoe goo again (it was still usable since it comes with a lid for the spout) and I reattached the sole where it was loose. I have been wearing the shoes for several months and they are still attached. As you might imagine, these shoes take a bit of a beating on the course. One word of caution, when the shoe goo dries, you can see it clearly. Try to prevent excess from getting on the exterior of the shoes, because it is difficult to remove.

Great!! Fixed my shoes super easily!!

NOTE: This review is NOT of any PART of this set, but of the SET AS A WHOLE. All of the individual components of the set are fine. Shoe Goo is a wonderful (if messy - see later) product. The tips are perfectly normal screw-on applicator tips. The knives are fine plastic paint/putty knives. But these pieces are just are just assembled and where never meant to work together. Therein lies the problem. For those who have worked with Shoe Goo, you know that it can be very messy and difficult to work with. When I saw this set, I thought that perhaps the persuasion tips and the knives might make applying it and spreading it around easier. Shoe Goo is thick, viscous, and VERY sticky. So it took a lot of force to squeeze out of the tip and it makes the spreading knife sticky. In fact, I had to apply so much force to squeeze out the Goo, that the back end of the tube broke open! I was now left with the prospect of trying to finish while the the thick, sticky, viscous Shoe Goo oozes everywhere and sticks to everything. Thankfully, I was able to more or less finish, but had to immediately throw the still partly full tube away as there was now no way close it.

One pair of boots I used this on was too damaged, the other pair I am waiting to see, they are wool winter boots, so too early to wear.
