Would this work on shoe that have a brace, were they cut the sole to put the bar in in the back is coming off. Any help would be great

I agree with all of the recent responses. You most likely will need to use a heavy amount of glue and allow for more drying time. Normally, a thin layer of glue will do the job but in this situation, I would use a generous amount.

I cannot quite picture your situation. The last time I used it (recently) was on a pair of shoes where the sole, about all of the front four inches detached itself from the shoe. I applied all along the edge under the edge of the shoe, pressed it down into position and smoothed out the excess. Let dry several days. Have since used them 8-10 hours a day for many many days with no problem. Hope this helps you. J

I believe it would work on any rubber sole. I always clean and degrease the affected area with Acetone first.

The product has good adhesive value. It workks really well on the toe of a tennis shoe which is continually pounding into concrete. Although I have never used it in your application, I think it is worth trying. I know I would try it.

It would depend on the size of the boot. If there is enough space in the boot the brace should fit.

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.

Yes, but I would advice against it. Given that the sole of the shoe will wear-out the bottom elastic band at a much faster rate. I don't think it will last for long, specialy if your going to use the guards during bag work.

I initially intended to put a heel on, but I ended up just filling in the holes. I think the replacement heel would fit, but it will likely stay on until it wears out because this stuff sticks very well.

Definitely for regular shoes. I found that some shoes had a heel well that was even too wide for them and they just slid around a lot. Some tape fixed that but it was an obnoxious fix. In the end, I just ended up buying a full insole piece. They worked much better.

Yes it will work, but the front part of the stretcher will not fit into the point of shoe. It will stretch the sides. I've used it for a few pair of pointy-toe heels for my self and friends.

They don't recommend that you put these types of things on top over other inserts. I do put mine on top of just the normal insert that comes in my shoes. You will probably just have to see how your shoes fit---may need to take the insert that comes with the shoe out. No, you do not need to trim them. They are partial length so that trimming is not necessary. I mainly use these in my tennis shoes. I am not sure how they would work in other shoes.

I don't think so. If it's to wide just in the heal then it should fix it, but if the whole shoe is too wide then I don't think it will help.

I was able to, but i wear shoes quite loose. I dont think it would work with all shoes/sneaker types. Its very sturdy and rigid, toomuch so for my needs. Very well built.

not boots..but not bar either...cushioned stationary ankle grips for back of above ankle...and adjustable (in and out for tightness)cushioned ankle grips on front...it holds comfortably. directions suggest use with shoes, I always use it barefooted-It's okay for me like that, the intent being the inversion.

The outside of your shoe is leather, but is the lining leather or vinyl. If the lining is vinyl it may have gone back to original shape. Are you using a stretching spray, which is probably mostly alcohol. Try again , with a spray, leave in a bit longer. Some other consumers say 5 days. My shoes are all Itslian leather lined, sorry, they stay stretched. I count the number of twists I do on a shoe. If you have to repeat process , give another twist or so. Good luck.

I did not see any guidelines on the sole that indicated it could be cut. Not sure if you would need to since this is just covering roughly half of the shoe and not a full sized insole.

No - haven't tried that. I used it on a spike high heel (shoe)that got damaged and had to glue it to make is stay securely.

You might try the extra large elastic brace, that is the size I have & I wear a size 10 shoe. Brace fits fine in my shoe even with a sock.

Hello J., I am sorry that your shoes are not remaining stretched. I have used my stretcher on several pairs of shoes without a problem. The only thing that I do differently is that I do not gradually stretch the shoes; I open it very wide from the onset and leave for a few days. If you try this & it works great, if not using a stretch liquid (also sold on Amazon) along with the shoe stretcher should definitely do the trick!

I have a standard clip on my shoes and get right into this clip. You may have to angle your foot a little differently than what you are use to. Try doing it with the shoe off and eyeball it to see what is going on.
