Most people I know use this to glue shoes back together, but I've found another use: sealing the toes of waterproof boots. Being in the swimming pool industry, my job requires a lot of kneeling on concrete pool decks, which wrecks the toes of my expensive steel toed work boots. Instead of buying new boots every month, I can just slather some Shoe Goo on the end and the boots are waterproof once again. Works like a charm!

I play a lot of tennis and continually have trouble with tennis shoe durability due to the abrasive nature of court surfaces. I've used the Shoe Goo products for several years and found them to work quite well in stretching the life of my shoes. Shoe bottoms need to be cleaned thoroughly before application, otherwise the cured product can delaminate. The only downside I have experienced is that it can be a bit slippery if a large surface of the shoe sole is covered - but this is only for the first few minutes or so of playtime until you've worn the sheen off of a recent application. Otherwise great product, very durable and effective.

first of all it wouldnt even keep the shoe together, second if you got your shoe wet it would get soggy at peel apart when you walked, third after drying it would peel off easily, so basically this is a piece of crap
