Comments about Sof Sole Shoe Goo:

I have used this stuff for years, but have come to the conclusion that's it's a poorly designed product. Once you use it a few times, the metal tube starts to get creases in it, then the glue leaks out and dries out. Once on the shoes it doesn't last that long either.
Do yourself a favor and go buy some heavy duty silicone and a caulk gun from the hardware store. Much cheaper, easier to use, and reusable.

Comments about Sof Sole Shoe Goo:

Shoe Goo has saved me more money and trouble than one can imagine. - When my favourite KEEN sandals started coming apart, SHOE GOO to the rescue. They are still holding together after a year of HARD use.- When I noticed my kayak bulkhead was leaking, for lack of a better product (Lexal, etc.) I used SHOW GOO as an experiment. It made a great bond between the plastic and foam of the boat. Waterproof, strong, yet flexible. Also great for gluing anchors in a poly canoe.Good for repairing neoprene sprayskirts too. [...]

Comments about Sof Sole Shoe Goo:

I am a middle aged runner who puts in about 9 miles/week, that is three 30 minute runs every week, 12 months a year, come rain, snow, heat waves or whatever. I used to compete but now I just run for health and relaxation. At my level of running, is it really necessary to change shoes every 3 - 4 months? No, of course not, yet in most running shoes that I have purchased over the last 10 years, the sole starts to separate in as little as 6 months. Shoo goo will reliably glue back your shoe sole when it starts flapping despite the fact that the rest of the shoe is in fine shape, including the tread on the sole!
I do find the product somewhat difficult to use but I suppose that is inevitable when you are trying push a thick glue within a sole that has partly come off. The repair usually lasts me between 3 - 6 months by which time the shoe is finally worn out or I may do another repair.
Perhaps there is a better shoe glue out there (I would certainly like to know) but shoe goo has cut my running shoe purchases in half.
