    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 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…)

    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.

    Shoe Goo. Definitely. Used to go through the stuff when I was a skater. Smells lovely too.

    Recycle them, it’ll be sole destroying
