We will repair the hole in the outsole from the inside of the shoe by filling the grid structure with foam rubber pieces.
-
Remove the insole.
-
Note: In our case, the lasting board (pink) and the insole were glued together. Parts of the lasting board are ripped off now.
-
-
-
Use a scissor to remove the remaining parts of the lasting board around the outsole hole.
-
Estimate or measure the size of the single grids, which need to be filled.
-
-
-
Prepare the piece of foam rubber, the scissors and the small utility knife.
-
Cut out the rectangular filling piece.
-
-
-
If you have estimated the size of the filling pieces, try if they're fitting before adding the glue.
-
Either rework them slightly or take them off and continue with the next step.
-
-
-
Cut a big enough part from the gaffa tape.
-
Cover the hole with the tape to avoid glue being squeezed out.
-
-
-
Use super glue for the grid hole and only apply it on the parts that need to be covered.
-
Use a small spatula to spread the glue evenly and let it dry.
-
Note: Follow the instructions of the glue used to know the exact drying time. In this example we left it a few minutes
-
-
-
Use the pin to hold the filling piece and insert it into the pre-glued grid.
-
Fill any remaining small gaps with a squeeze of glue.
-
Press the filling piece with the scissor and hold for 30 seconds.
-
Note: Follow the instructions of the glue used to know the exact drying time. In this example we left the product to dry overnight.
