Fixing a boot heel (the inside one) (media.piefed.social)

The inside heel came out of my Solovairs (Docs) and I am unsure the best way to secure it inside my boot again.

For the most part it is not a big deal, but it does get annoying when it slides out under my foot.

I thought maybe shoe goo, but I think that may be too permanent (and messy).

After I posted I started to wonder if rubber cement would work, or if the Heat and moisture from my foot would mess with it.

But this looks like a good choice of glue, not one I have ever used. Interested in checking it out.

    Goop is freakin' magic. Holds like nothing else, I've encountered exactly ONE material it doesn't stick to (some kind of plastic), it's really strong, and the crazy part - it's completely REMOVEABLE.

    I could be a spokesman for them, I've never used another glue like it.

    I've glued door seals on a car, handles on coffee mugs, hard drives to the case on a desktop that didn't have another mount, refrigerator/microwave handles, laptop cases, name it - I've probably used it there.
