I did this to a pair of boots that looked about the aforementioned in the starting time, and information technology looked nifty for about 3 weeks and so started showing the wear again. I hope yours lasts longer.

Looks nice, great work!

To me at that place's something about repairing things yourself that makes then more than valuable than the item brand new.

This is awesome, I've had to do some repairs on shoes in the past but it's usually the rubber bottom peeling off the shoe, I've used blast gum and gorilla glue in the past. Gorilla expands and can look bad real quick, boom glue breaks down I think and eventually breaks free subsequently a chip. Anyone know a better method for this?

Just happened again to a fairly new pair of boots that are otherwise in perfect status and I desire to set them :(
