I'm 32 and have a good and steady income and still shoegoo the crap out of my shoes! Why buy new shoes after 2 weeks when I can use them for 1 month!
I super glued a strip of popped bicycle innertube to my flick spot on my skate kicks. I do this as soon as my sock is exposed. You can go as big or small as you need with the rubber strip. It's definitely one of the best ideas I have implemented in my skating!

So nostalgic Ricky! Back in the days when we had no money, we quick-fixed our shoes only with duct tape. We put multiple layers over the holes inside the shoe, (sole too). It actually worked pretty well.

Haha I remember shoe goo! Ricky is the expert (before he got sponsored) 😅
Ricky use a ice cube to spread the glue, super simple and there is zero mess and makes it super smooth!
I had this chick make me laces from those bracelets chicks used to make by like tying knots over and over , I loved those laces , so bummed when they were over
Nice and delicate work on the shoes, mate. I used something similar a few weeks ago on my shoes. Couldn’t find the Shoeglue product in the stores, but found something called Rubber Repair at a car accessories store.

Way back in the day (mid 90's) we had these shoe shield cap things that we'd glue on our shoes. It's was like a hard rubber cap that would cover the entire front outer portion of the shoe and protect it from wear from ollies, kickflips, etc. The downside was it didn't really feel like the shoe rubber and always got caught on stuff. Plus they looked ridiculous and sometimes we'd get teased from the preppy skaters that we couldn't afford new shoes. Ah, the life and times of a broke skater kid. We also tried a rubberized coating similar to what you'd put on hand tool grips that we got from Home Depot. We'd just dip the entire front part of the shoe in the can of liquid rubber, wipe off the bottom of the shoe, and let it dry. It worked but would only last like one session cause it was so grippy it would just end up stuck in the grip tape. I remember it was a weird look with blue rubber covering the entire front of my black & white almost completely destroyed Airwalks. lol
Very helpful thanks Ricky

Haven't Used Shoo Goo since the 90s. I used to put a thin light precoat over a fresh pair where they would rip. Still looked fresh and lasted a bit longer.

So you skate a few times then add a precoat.
People use to make fun of me for taking brand new skate shoes and globbing this stuff on them, shoes lasted much longer, and you can keep re-applying it as it wears out

hey rick just a suggestion here in the Philippines skate shoes are really expensive for us, so what are we doing is the interior or tires we are shaping it and and paste it with shoe glue on shoe part that is being rip. the skate shoe is lasting much more longer
ahhh good ol shoe goo. That was my trade secret back in the 2000s to keep the shoe goin for another month when i was in my teens. If people saw that shoe goo on your skate shoes... they knew you be rippin lol. And on your gooin the lace idea. What i did back then, i actually built up a small lace guard “wall” in front of the laces. It really made the shoe look “ghetto” but IDGAF back then haha. Kept the laces goin if you didnt have those expensive DVS n DC shoes wit built in lace protection.
Thanks Rick 😘
Amazing ❤️
Flex seal spray works great too!
Yup that stuff is awesome
Out here in the Philippines, we normally use inner tire tubes, we cut to shape it up and patch it on the shoe.
I used to just cut little pieces of fabric and super glue them onto the shoes on both sides where the holes were and also coated the patch on the outside with super glue to make it stronger honestly it only gave the shoes like one more week of life
I remember putting shoe goo on my éS shoes as a kid- my parents would only buy me one expensive pair of skate shoes every 6 months
Is it okay to use shoe glue
i skated back in the 90s (i'm 38 now) and god some kids back then had some really bad ShoeGoo jobs. it looked like they had dipped the front half of their shoe into a bucket of Shoe Goo
hey RIKKI, I was wondering when you create/ pick out a board (say an 8.0”) do you look/ feel out the size of the tail and or the nose? I’ve been staking for about 5yr and only just realised that is a lot of variation to tail and nose! Can you make a vid explaining about why this is & if you have a preference, & what means for you when you skate, to have say a longer tail or nose? Kind Regards Luke !

I definitely do. I’m not an experienced skater either, but I refuse to buy decks online unless I’m trying specifically support a certain skater or company. I prefer to check out the deck in person in order to feel the tail, nose, and most importantly for me the concave.

.also, use Super Glue on the stitching, it helps keep it from getting torn as fast..
please make a how to clean bearings video. Just bought new bearings that I can clean and the guy in the shop was terrible to explain me how to do it.
I havent seen shoe goo in so long. Used to use it in the late 90's to fix up shoes.
I usually used to use shoe goo and glue another piece of either fabric or leather to make my shoes last twice as long by adding more layers!
My shoes are shredded at the Ollie/kickflip mark but if feels bad to wear new shoes so I need this
Skate mom of three boys ages 12, 10, and 8. I pick up Vans at thrift stores all the time, otherwise we couldn’t afford their skating. But I have gotten brand new skate sneakers for $5. Can’t beat it 😏

superglue your stitches before you skate in your shoes. less is more. when you start seeing a hole start to form, rub a little on the material. you dont need much just a thin layer and just keep up with it every week. when you put too much on the shoe doesnt flex with your foot. but superglueing your stitches in your high wear areas are a must to keep your shoes together. even when youwear the stitches away the glue is still holding the the threading that is between the layers of the shoes.
Nice vid mate I do some skating myself on my channel
Feeling a little nostalgic watching this

while duct tape is the handy man's secret weapon, shoe goo is the skater's secret weapon. can use it for so many things. personally, even used it as caulk in the bathroom lol! also, generally, i try to keep 2 pairs of shoes. one pair for walking and one pair that ends up consisting of 50% shoe goo by the time i throw them out lol...
I wonder what the Goo is called in AUS!

Just use Hot Glue It's cheaper
i used glue stick for my shoe hehe but that's a great idea maybe I'll give it a try ☺️
hot glue gun sticks work very well too. but instead of using ice as u do on shoogoo u use fire.
Kinda looks similar to rubber cement

if you buy like an extremely large pair of shoes you can fit them over your shoes to keep them safe and they will still look like new even after weeks but the smell will be extremely terrible (due to the heat???)
Ehh. I just buy new shoes. I like trying different styles and colors anyway. Totally understand if your a kid and your parents are getting pissed about destroying your shoes. Lol or if you just trying to spend less money. But I just go Vans store at the mall and shop in the clearance section. $30 gets you some dope shoes in there. Might be an odd color you don’t normally want but oh well. I don’t typically wear my skate shoes for other day to day stuff anyway.

Wet the finger you’re spreading the glue with and it won’t stick

I use hot glue on my shoes, works good.
In America we have these things called pliers. They'll take that top right off, I don't care if you superglued it. Lol
I've never used shoe goo. I always saved old shoes. And used "crazy glue". I'd cut pieces off my old shoe and put it on my new shoes using crazy glue. It'd last just as long as a new pair cuz it's using high quality materials like real sued. Shoe goo seems like a mess. And doesn't seem like it'd last as long. If my patches ever got loose crazy glue only costs about $2 max. And I'd have a lot of material left over from the shoe I cut up #REALSkateHack
