OG White/Red 12's Done?

[fvargas2000]

I wore these once for 30 mins and the sole came off of both shoes. This was about 5 months ago and have had them put away back in the box thinking they weredone for. But now I just can't throw them away and was wondering if they can be fixed or are they done? Also the "jumpman" on the side waspeeling off a bit and thought it would look better completely removed rather than some peeled. I'm probably going to go to a shoe repair shop and see ifthey can fix it but I want your guys opinions seeing as how some of you may have encountered something like this. Thanks

 

[never wear them]

yes you can repair them. never seen this happen to the gum bottom xii's but the taxi's are the ones that most ppl have a problem with... i have 3 pairsof those wht/red and 1 of them are beat to death and the sole is still holding on. xii's are durable but you never know

Yeah, they should just glue right back on - you'd probably have to be careful with them from now on but they should be wearable - the sole rubber hasplenty of flex but the midsole is probably a bit brittle.

i aint never seen this happen to the 12s
what size are they?

 

[fvargas2000]

They are size 8.5. I just bought another pair yesterday but want to fix these. What type of glue should I use that will be strong enough so that I can stillwear them?

So you are able to wear them now? How much did they charge you if you don't mind me asking?
