A couple days ago I used E-6000 to fix mine, I had to put them on my porch with bricks for clamps while they cured. Now , that's definately not for the weak-nosed! Shoulda thought of hot glue.

Sounds good! I have a pair I need to fix too!

I'd recommend contact cement instead of hot-glue. I've fixed and modified shoes professionally in the past.
