manky Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 in a pair of Trezeta Alpinist, i was attacked by neve penitents that separated the outer rubber rand above the welt horizontally. no damage to the actual boot uppers. any thoughts on the efficacy of using shoe goo to slap a repair? any recommendations on shoe goo vs. shoe goo II? thanks.

TMO Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Good question Manky. I have some approach shoes with the rand peeling... the cascadian couloir did a number on 'em. I've been thinking of shoe goo...................? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete_H Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Use Barge Cement not Shoe Goo and apply as much pressure as you can without fucking the boot up - put it in a vise or drive over it with your car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertjoy Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I use barge cement to repair minor peel-off or rips in the rands on my mountaineering boots. It is very effective. I use tightly pulled duct-tape to hold down the section which is being re-glued. I understand that this is exactly what a shoe repair shop would do.

96avs01 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I would use Freesole long before Shoe Goo. No previous experience with barge cement. YMMV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
