How to repair a cracked sole - Method number 1
To repair the burst sole at home, you still have to get the following materials and tools:
shoe knife;
emery skar;
degreasing;
quick-drying glue;
shoe hook and threads.
Is the express repair possible in this case? If repaired shoes without a tread, with a smooth sole, then it can be fixed with your own hands and wear on the same day. This is done like this:
The surface of the sole is cleaned by the emery sandpaper, retreating from the heel centimeters to five, and bend it in such a way that the crack was able to reveal as much as possible. You consider the shoe knife inside the remnants of the factory glue and other dirt, and with the help of acetone or other degreasing agents, it is necessary to prepare a crack to the application of glue and remove all possible fat.

Next, you need to take the crack: on its walls, apply quick-drying glue and press each other. It is enough to withstand the glue before gluing the crack, it depends on the specific glue that you will use, so carefully read the instructions.
The crack was stuck - but it is still impossible to walk in such a shoe, otherwise it will disappear again. Therefore, it will have to sew. Pencil make zigzag marks straight across all the cracks. Contempts on the sole
Directly on these marks a shoe knife or handmade mini-brine start to make cuts in a depth of about 2.5 millimeters. Mandations on the sole
But now the crack must be sewed with their own hands on these tags, laying the thread right into the cuts. In the same hollow hide nodes from thread.

If your shoes have a protector with a protector, then the express repair is impossible with their own hands, because here it will be on the sewing crack to impose a mark that shoemakers are called "prevention", and work with glue throughout the sole. You will additionally need:
Moting material;
Special shoe glue;
Heating device is a powerful hairdryer or electric stove.
The algorithm of action is practically the same as in the first way, but first it will be necessary to cut the protector with the burst sole to make it smooth and facilitate access to the crack.
Removal of tread
After that, perform all the same steps from the 1st to the 5th, except when crossing the crack in this case one layer of the line will be enough, as additional protection will be pasted on top of it.
IMPORTANT: repair of shoes with their own hands with construction glue or universal "moment" is impossible - these tools are not completely elastic. Sapozhniki recommend using the adhesives of "Diamolac" and "Nairit". They can have other trade names, but their composition does not change, and that is how they are called the masters of shoe affairs. The first is more suitable for rubber and polyurethane products, and the second - for leather products.
