My regular source of trainers seems to have gone down in quality, and where the rubber edging to the soles is glued onto the suede / rough leather upp ers it is coming unstuck, leaving a shiny film of glue on the leather. Ther e is a groove in the rubber where it could be sewn faily neatly, but I'd li ke to try re-gluing first.



It looks like the glue might be hard to remove - I suppose it would have to be abraded.



What glue can folks recommend ? And the way to use it ?



Thanks, Simon.
