This is probably overpriced, what cheaper alternative can I use to preemptively cover spots that'll get ruined on skate shoes?Or am I wrong and this product is different from other glues?
I would buy the original Shoe Goo over Shoe Goo II, it's less than half the price for nearly twice as much product. The biggest difference is that Shoe Goo II is low odor but the odor of the original never bothered me because I sealed my shoes in a 5-gallon bucket for a couple days to help reduce it. E6000 is made by the same company except E6000 is a little bit runnier. I've always used Shoe Goo to patch holes in my shoes and E6000 to glue soles back on when needed. The same company also makes a product called Goop which is probably similar but I've never tried that one.
>>2992632skate shoes are disposable nigga, they're a wear item. get used to buying new pairs there's no way to make shoes last very long if you're actually out skating every day.>tfw vans used to be like $30 a pair because they were understood to be disposable
>>2992632It always looks like shit, plus I don’t find it sticks that well and it’s not very durable. I’m not saying it doesn’t work, but it’s not like factory durability.You might want to use it to glue durable pre-formed rubber on those areas. Also, contact cement works well for attaching rubber.
