Can this be used to punch holes in shoe straps?

It would seem this would be very good for that. It makes a clean small round hole.

I use these on harness leather . These hole punches are a must have and work great in conjunction with a leather wheel hole punch.I recommend a kitchen vinyl plastic cutting board as an additional to act as an punch board.----I hope this info helps you

Probably, with effort. I was trying to punch through card stock and it wasn't fun. It's a really flimsy hole punch.

I have not tried it, however, on our aluminum signs, the hole is perfectly punched and very smooth. Good Luck!

It would be hard to use this on leather. This is more for paper. They sell leather punches on Amazon. (I bought one)

I have not used the set on leather yet, but I am sure it will work. Use each "hole cutter/punch" by hand or with a hammer to cut or punch holes into leather.

I would use standard automotive bon do for the holes. This works great on wood for nail holes, but I don't think it is as strong as regular bondo. Regular bondo is not that expensive, trust me and do it right.

I am not 100 % sure that you could. I am not familiar with any type of hole drilling done with this. I would guess a hammer drill would be more along the lines of something you would use.

I believe it would, I tried this to stretch a pair of peep-toe pumps. However, I did not like it because it did not stretch evenly; left "bumps" in the leather. Ended up using shoe stretcher spray and a thick pair of socks which worked better.

Don't know why you would want to use a punch--the material is too thick. Very easy to drill holes through the bottom, though. Maybe 3/8" for your purposes.

Maybe, as you can see the lever is popped up our of the heel. I have not used it for boots. Good luck!

The punch has plenty of strength. The real question should be "does the grommet have the strength to cut through the leather. I'd say, if it's one layer, 95% probable. If it multiple, 75%. To test it, up a piece of the Work on a cement floor and use a hand grommet set to test your needs. If that works ok, your in like Flinn.

Maybe, but you might want to pre "drill" holes using a nail or something similar

I think you can. I used it to punch a stack of 10 pieces of paper and it worked fine. It should work on index cards.

I've never tried it on golf shoes, but it doesn't damage my work boots, or tennis shoes. I actually bought one of these for my father from Atwoods, and it's not quite such a tight fit. A little easier on those aged legs.

As the others have said in response to this question; yes. You have the ability to stretch it one of the two ways (length and width) or both at the same time. These also come with little black plastic pieces that you can place in the holes on the wood of the stretcher; this enables you to target stretch tough leather parts on your shoe.
