How to repair your boots using sugru

Step 4: Fixing frayed laces

A common problem that comes with boots is the fraying of the lace ends. Small but annoying. Step in sugru. With those spare bits of sugru left over from the colour matching you could bolster up your laces and save yourself a lot of hassle.

Just roll a small piece of sugru around each lace end and leave to cure overnight.

TOP TIP: When leaving the laces to cure make sure that they are not touching any other part of the boot, you don't want them to bond together.

Looks like I too need some sugru in my life. All of my good shoes have ripped from the edge of the sole from the ball of the foot becoming un-waterproof.
