My poor, worn out soles...

Oy!

What do you folks do to reinforce your shoes for skating?

I bought a pair mid-July and can almost see my foot through the bottom now.

What do you all do?

Cheers,

Natalie

I've started footbreaking with my other foot to maximize shoe life and also learning to slide helps a lot to extending the life of my shoes. Otherwise there's always Salvation Army and buying old shoes from friends :)

i go to oregon leather, a store specifically for leather, but they carry rubber too. im sure theres something like it where you live. a good sheet of rubber is like 10 bucks and it'll make at least 3 soles. put the soles on with shoe goo its way worth it and not very much trouble after you learn to do it a few times
