TomG Report post Posted September 25, 2021 Not a leather question, but a shoe question. My grandson has a like new pair of canvas shoes that are coming loose at the sole edges. The edgers are a rubberish material and the soles look almost like gum rubber. What would be the best glue to reattach the two?? Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwight Report post Posted September 25, 2021 My old standby for everything pretty much is Weldwood Contact Cement. I fixed the sole coming off my sneakers with it. May God bless, Dwight Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomG Report post Posted September 26, 2021 That was my first thought but not sure if I need to do some prep the the materials or not. I've never used it on rubbery stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
