Review: Perfect for attaching rubber to leather soles - Fast setting, solid hold and it arrived prior to the expected date. Was able to attach rubber soles (not included) to the leather soles of my favorite pair of cowboy boots that were starting to wear. Rubber soles is the way to go here in Oregon! Never could wear expensive boots year around. Even just going from the truck to the house leather sucks up water like a sponge. Now, I can wear my boots throughout the winter without a worry of the leather breaking down due to the wet/drying cycle causing cracking. I'll still wear more appropriate footwear when outside for lengthy periods in the winter, but when just running around town or what not, I can wear my favorite boots again! Probably will re-purchase and do the same to other boots, too. Word of caution: Applying to new shoes should be a breeze, however when dealing with an old pair of boots whose soles are already, "Curled" it's gonna be some work. Clamps help, but constant vigilance is still required for about an hour or two. The clamps can't take care of every square inch, so I ended up un-clamping after the glue started setting good (but was still tacky) and manually would go over every part to insure proper adhesion. Review: Used the clear for 15 years or more and it works great. Greatly extends the life of the shoe. I put it on new shoes. - I have used this product for over 15 years. One tip. After the application allow the product about two days to harden. If you walk on it too soon it squishes down and does not last at all. If you wait and it hardens it lasts a long time. I have always used the clear, and purchased it locally. This is my first time using the black. I put this stuff on new shoes and it greatly extends the life of the sole. Make sure you use some kind of solvent to clean the sole thoroughly before you apply it. If you do, it is really, really hard to remove it, thus it does not separate and come off. When it gets too thin I replace it and that is when I notice how hard it sticks to the sole. UPDATE. If the heel is worn, you can put the goo on thicker, you just might have to wait for several days for it to get hard. Do not wear the shoe if the goo is soft at all. It will get rock hard. If you walk on it when it is sill soft the goo will flatten out. I have also used it for the first time as a glue. I have a pair of hiking off trail shoes that the sole started to separate. I cleaned the surfaces then put the goo between the two layers and used C clamps to hold the sides together. I gooed the heels and in a few days will be ready to wear the shoes for another year or so. ## Features - * Contact Adhesive and Sealant - * Rebuild Worn Soles - * Coat Frayed Laces - * Seal and Protect Worn Boots - * Reattach Broken Heels ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003IJA2TY | | ASIN | B003IJA2TY | | Best Sellers Rank | #941,071 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ( See Top 100 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ) #655 in Shoe Care Kits | | Brand Name | Sof Sole | | Color | Black | | Compatible Material | Leather, Rubber, Suede, Vinyl | | Container Type | Tube | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (1,518) | | Date First Available | October 27, 2006 | | Department | unisex-adult | | Full Cure Time | 24 Hours | | Included Components | Boot Shield Waterproofer, Cleaner, Brush | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | Yes | | Item Form | Gel, Liquid | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item model number | 82189 | | Manufacturer | Eclectic | | Manufacturer | Eclectic | | Material Type | Leather, Suede | | Model | 82189 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Waterproof | | Package Dimensions | 8.5 x 4.45 x 1.61 inches; 4.66 ounces | | Specific Uses For Product | Shoe | | UPC | 096506821898 | | Viscosity | High Viscosity | | Volume | 106.46 Milliliters | | Water Resistance Level | Waterproof | ## Images ![Shoe Goo, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QDKTvONxL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Has anyone used this on vinyl? I have a 1/4" tear I want to prevent from enlarging. thanks for your answer.** A: The packaging or tube doesn't list favorable materials. It just says: "permanently protects/repairs all types of footwear" I've used this on several pairs of shoe soles and personally would use it on vinyl. I'd just caution your applying it with a small stick type spatula for that tiny tear. It's VERY thick and adheres swiftly! **Q: What kind of solvent works with this glue?** A: probably acetone....when it dries you can cut it with a razor or knife. it is liquid rubber and very good on running shoes. wipe it off before it dries. it is not like super glue cement. **Q: I have shoes that are about 14 yrs old, and I can't get the soles to stay glued on. Will this help?** A: Yes. Clean and dry the surfaces before applying this adhesive. Use even but just enough clamping pressure. I’ve had good results extending the life of older outdoor shoes with this product **Q: How well does it adhere to leather on leather?** A: I didn't use it for that. I tried to use it to attach a new sole to a pair of boots. It was worthless for that. It doesn't set up quickly enough to be usable on anything other than a flat surface. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for attaching rubber to leather soles *by D***D on March 19, 2015* Fast setting, solid hold and it arrived prior to the expected date.

I was worried from reading some reviews here that this product might only be good for gluing and patching non-shoe sole related issues, but it worked perfectly to add many more miles of "tread" on the bottom of my shoes! While I'm not sure if it just adheres better to an all rubber shoe, I can tell you there was no "peeling away" problems like some of the reviews I've read from those who applied product to their worn soles. I applied the product in 2/3 coats using a small spatula scraper, about 1/16th of an inch at a time, leaving it a bit thicker at thinnest spots on shoe fore sole. Let each coat dry overnight, then reapplied. Let the last coat dry about 24 hours then put on the shoes and did my usual walk heavy commute. The product looks like a new sole (minus of course the grooves)! Perfectly adheres and blends in with my black shoe sole now that its worn past the shiny finish it dried with. Depending on what type of shoe you're looking to get some more life out of, this product is fantastic! Sure beats paying $75 for another paid of my favorite wet weather work shoes! ## Frequently Bought Together - Shoe Goo, Black - SOF SOLE Original Shoe Goo - 3.7 fl oz Tube - Clear Shoe Glue - Repairs Soles, Heels, Patches Small Holes - Bonds on Contact, Dries Within 24 Hrs, Waterproof - Works on Leather, Rubber, Vinyl, Canvas - Boot-Fix Shoe Glue: Instant Professional Grade Shoe Repair Glue --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1301461-shoe-goo-black](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1301461-shoe-goo-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
