My poor shoe! / myLot

Guys! My shoe blew out at work a bit ago! I bathe dogs, and now my foot is susceptible to water! These are my favorite work shoes :( I call them my leathers. I got them at Ross, so I have no clue if I will ever be able to find them again.

Once, I was wearing a pair of high heel boots. I went to walk into a store to grab some groceries, and one heel came completely off! uuugh

@Spontaneo oh no! That sounds horrible! Hopefully you had the heel fixed later? What a disaster:(

Ross? What store is that? Sorry this happened. I know it has happened to me and always seems to at the worst of times!

@maezee oh no! Sorry it’s happened to you too! Ross is a discount department store that sells name brand clothes that are new, not used. I’m not sure if you have heard of Marshall’s or tj maxx, but they are the same type.

Hope you'll find the same one or maybe there's a much better alternative. Good luck.

@toniganzon thanks! I just bought some new ones, but not the same kind. Hopefully these guys can hold up for a bit!

if i take a shoe like that to a shoe repair shop here, they will sew the sole to the leather.

Yep You need new shoes. You could look at Amazon. They may have some.

@JESSY3236 ya know, I did find some almost the same on Amazon. But since I can’t see it in person, I just can’t commit!

Get some super glue and put it on every contact point and find something to press the shoe down for a day. Either it will work or it won't. I don't know if there are shops to repair shoes anymore.

You could always try going to Home Depot or Lowes and buying some Gorilla glue and gluing them back together again. I will admit, I have done that to several old pairs of shoes of mine that I just wasn't ready to part with yet. It's not a permanent fix, but it will buy you some time to shop around and find another "perfect" pair of shoes!
