▲ 131 ▼ How far do you wear your daily shoes out before bothering to replace them? (lemmy.world) submitted 6 months ago by over_clox@lemmy.world to c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world 86 comments fedilink hide all child comments These are my daily walkers, BMX riders, rainy day shoes, and mechanic work shoes. Left shoe not pictured, but I'm sure you get the idea.. Yes I do have a few much nicer pairs of shoes for nice or important occasions, but I'd rather fully wear out one pair of shoes at a time. So, what's your worn out shoes looking like?

Guess that's a skill I should learn. Protip: E6000 craft adhesive works magic. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] over_clox@lemmy.world [S] 5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) E6000? You son of a bitch, you reminded me of my old project, my custom modded game controller! I did lots of mods back in 2003, but the plastic is getting brittle these days ☹️ E6000 was used to secure my modded parts. I really should at least try to fix the remaining parts and give it another game drive, even if it requires some duct tape.. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Oaksey@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago Shoe Goo permalink fedilink source parent
