Why use glue when you could use 1" galvanized sheet rock screws? just screw it from the inside of the shoe into the sole, I would use at least three!! ;-) Clark...
Yes, it's a paste often supplied in tubes and it can be used to repair holes or cracks in soles as well as re-attaching heels and soles to uppers. The make I used to see being used was "Bison" and IIRC it was sold as "Bison shoe repair paste". I can find a materials data sheet for it:

But I can't see anyone in the UK selling the stuff (not online at least). Woolworths used to stock it, but Woolies have changed a lot of their line up recently - most of them don't seem to sell the range of glue, shoe soles and repair materials that they used to.
Ah, hang on it looks like it has been re-born as "liquid rubber"

I'm sure there are other/cheaper sellers if you have good look around.
