One of my walking boots (really a trainer looking at them) have become unstuck from the sole...it all looks pretty scabby in there.
I was thinking about a resole but looking at links on the other thread currently running, it looks like you can only resole flat soles, whereas these have got a moulded jobby.
So what glue? Some rubberised version I can slather over the cleaned up sole and dump a brick on top?
My winter boots did the same and I took them to the cobbler, the sole came unstuck again on the first ride!
Some kind if impact adhesive like EVO stick is probably worth a go.
I've used MCNETT Freesole Repair Adhesive a few times. It's as good as any diy repair.
I've had some success with a product called Shoe Goo.
I've always had success with super glue honestly clean area up squirt in said glue push together hold for a few secs hey presto 😀
Shoe goo
Another shoo glue user here, when it ran out I got some Evo Stick serious glue, both work very well
I used some rubberised cyanoacrylate on my defective 5.10s last week - it's amazing glue but possibly overkill! (I have warranty replacements but I thought I'd keep these faulty ones - delaminating outer layer of sole - running as long as possible...)
Contact adhesive, or DIY Sugru:

Shoe goo is fantastic. I ripped half the sole of my MT43 on a river crossing in September. Shoe goo'd it back together and it's been fine. Even been through the washing machine a few times.
Lovely, thanks guys 🙂
Shoe Goo. Definitely. Used to go through the stuff when I was a skater. Smells lovely too.
Recycle them, it'll be sole destroying
