Does that work to glue back cleats (leather and plastic), shoe sole etc..? if not any advise on what to use? thanks.

Cleats, spikes, etc., usually have a screw backing- I would never trust any glue for that purpose (trust a screw backed cleat or spike). This glue however has an extremely strong bond and is excellent for gluing soles back to the shoes, gluing leather to leather. After a good cure time (for me, 48 to 72 hours) expect the product to rip or fail before the glue ever gives way...

Yes, it is still used by many shoe manufactures, even comes in drums. Stays flexible where other products fail. Need to fit precisely and you only get one shot to put it together, contact cement. The best.

I used this product (twice) on real leather calf hair heels... It did not damage the shoe at all... I would suggest to not spray so much into the shoe that it is soaked. Especially not with suede. Directions for use on the can says:MELTONIAN Shoe Stretch has been especially developed to permanently stretch and soften shoes and gloves made of leather, suede or reptile skins. Not recommended for use on man made materials. Shoe stretch may possibly cause a dark pattern on certain shades of leather.I would suggest to try at best to spray in an even amount in both shoes.so that color change would not be noticeable.I hope this helps.

You mean like a knitted sock bottom to some no-slip rubber soles, or something similar? It should, but make sure you use some sandpaper on anything with a very smooth surface. I was able to glue a slick piece of leather to some cotton fabric, but the first time I tried, they came apart because I hadn't sanded the leather properly to give it a good surface to adhere to (it was nearly glass-like with how slippery and smooth the surface was before I roughed it up).

I didn't use it on boots, but I would think it would work, because ankle boots are so similar to shoes. It really worked for my shoes.

No it will not work on leather. I would try something like Shoe Glue for that. You can find that at a hardware store.

I've never tried it on leather. You might test it on an old pair of shoes, or on the underside of a cushion.

I havent tried that ! they have no adhesive , but i dont think this is the main problem , the issue is they are big enough and will be seen if in a sandal . However they're very stable in shoes and boots and prevent bad smell

It stretches leather, so it should stretch straps too. Just immediately put the shoes on and wear them until they dry (from the spray). Good luck.

I used it on my wives boots and it worked fine. I also used it on my work boots and it did not work well. I would stick to using this on tennis shoes or boots like you mentioned.

I'd probably stick with regular goop or some other alternative shoe adhesive. In my experience, the Marine dries non-flexible and I can't guess how it would work for leather (I used it on plastic).

no, it's more of a topcaot for other fabrics on actual shoes. it doesn't work on the rubber parts.

Actually, according to the great hive mind. It was originally developed for use on soles of shoes. With the advent of rubber soles it was subsequently used on saddles. I don't see any problem with using it on soles. Make sure they are clean and dry. When the product dries buff with a rag and they will be ok. Just my 2 cents.

I'm assuming "yes" but have never used it for that. It sure stops ordor in shoes which is what I bought it for. I love this stuff!

I guess you could trim it to place on shoe bottoms, but I wouldn't recommend that. Find a local shoe repairman and have a rubber heal added. We used this tape on our basement steps for added traction. It's similar to skateboarder tape.

The Alene's leather and suede glue worked well for me in a similar application...

Sorry for the delay in answering this question. I would not recommend this to polish or buff shoes. Even at the lowest setting on the rotary device your using.

Sure, it will work on all leathers. But I'd find a shoe polish that already contains conditioner as well as the color of the shoe. Just my thoughts. Some other really good products to also consider are: Bee Kind or Saphir.
