I posted this in the PI forum for the reason that alot of my sneakers here in the PI has had its sole coming of from the shoe

I have OG Iverson's from way back in 1996 and some foams from the late 90s and they are in my home in Cali and none of them have had long term damage. Must be our humdity?

Questions:
1. Has any of this happened to your sneaks?
2. How can i prevent this from happening to my other sneaks?
3. How can this be repaired?
 
try shoe goo? bought mine at athletes foot before..

well my best solution for that is to wear them as often as you can..

and i think theres a repair shop in megamall..i read it a while back,forgot the name..
 
Same thing happened to my AJ 4 '04 retros. Humidity for sure in the country caused this.
 
if your in Pi, go to mr quickie, they do a decent job on reparing your kicks. budget PHP 100

Its a known problem for AJ VII. This problem is rampant in the shoe care/maintenance thread as well. Plus, what the others above said, humidity.

Good thing the whole sole came off and not piece by piece. Its easy to repair then. shoe goo, rugby, mr.quickie. Ayos!

ironic how i don't wear my shoes as much thinking that it might get ruined quicker. turns out its the other way around, i'll definitely use them morenow.

tried shoe goo just the other day when the soles came off my lebron 2s, they're holding up fine. kinda messy to use though (but that could be just me)
