Blog Header 4 Easy Fixes To Make Your Summer Shoes Look Brand New Again

Oh, how we love summer! There’s nothing better than sunny weather, especially while discovering the urban jungle or being abroad and sipping a fabulous cocktail. But that carefree feeling can be spoilt if your favourite pair of (possibly expensive) flats or sandals breaks. Don’t worry, you may be able to repair them! Here’s a list of fixes that can actually solve your problem and help you put your best foot forward.


1. Resole your shoes

Almost all of us have a favourite pair of sandals, flats or slippers that we wear all the time. Naturally, overtime the soles wear out, which can cause discomfort and reduce the wearability of your summer shoes drastically. In a worst case scenario, wear and tear might even cause a hole in your shoe sole!

Depending on the type of material, cobblers like ours can replace the worn out parts with protective soles or place an entire new sole if necessary by stitching or gluing it. Even new innersoles can sometimes be a great solution in case your old ones got loose or lost its supportive shape. For the best results, don’t delay with these repairs.

2. Reattach flip flop straps to your slippers

One of the most common problems with summer shoes is definitely having the circular stoppers popping out of your slippers or loose flip flop straps. Before you start looking for a replacement  pair, you can actually consider getting the existing one fixed. And we are not suggesting a short-term fix with some DIY material, but a long-term solution by properly stitching the circular stopper back onto the insole.
