Pros and Cons."},"content":{"rendered":"
At times, our shoes need some type of repair for aesthetic or functional purposes. When the rubber sole of my hiking boots started to separate from the foam midsole, I decided that using some type of shoe glue was the best solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shoe repair can be done yourself or by a shoe repair professional. Repairing shoes yourself can save you money but also includes a learning curve. Professional shoe repair will usually cost more, but the repair will be done well and may include a quality guarantee.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n It can be easy and cost-effective to repair your shoes. I\u2019ve fixed some of my shoes and felt good that I can now wear my nice-looking shoes again. I had saved money and had made my shoes functional again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This chart shows the pros and cons of repairing your show yourself and having a professional do it. It explains how you can make a decision about each pair of shoes you have. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you love your shoes, it\u2019s a good bet you\u2019ll want to repair them. Take into consideration that this may take time and money, but it can be well worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You\u2019re likely to want to repair shoes that you use regularly. These shoes sometimes have worn tread, broken laces, and loose soles, and can be repaired in many cases cheaply and fairly quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you don\u2019t wear your shoes much, and they don\u2019t bring you joy, it\u2019s better to donate them, recycle<\/a> them, or throw them away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of the simplest repairs are replacing torn shoelaces and fixing frayed fabric. It makes sense that I would keep shoes that require only ten minutes to fix since I would be spending more money when buying a new pair of shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You will save time on simple repairs because taking the time to\u00a0buy new shoes<\/a> will include research, which may include going to the store, trying on the new shoes, and possibly returning if the shoes do not match your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
