- Now we are in the autumn period when there is rain, so the first thing they should not do is to put the wet shoes on the heater or dry them with a hair dryer, also to turn on the heating in the car directly on the feet, it's the worst thing about shoes. Just then a shock is made to the shoe, the glue is immediately deactivated and the shoe peels off. People also have a habit of washing their shoes in the washing machine and then immediately drying them. That is not a smart solution at all - Philip explains to us.

He says there is nothing that can not be fixed, at least with him. However, it depends on the damage to the shoe and the material, but also on our mistakes, the moment when we want to solve the small detachment at home.

- Everyone is used to gluing it with secondary glue, but it is a huge mistake, because that glue burns the material, it tightens the surface so much without gluing it and even the needles break when I try to sew it. Several types of adhesives are now used in shoemaking, not as before only one for each material. There are shoes that are especially dear to us and we want to wear them again, but they are very damaged. The shoe doctor says that there is salvation for them as well.

- I love shoemaking, so I do this with pleasure. I have various challenges of damaged shoes that I need to repair or repair. On my Facebook page you can see shoes in their original condition, when they were brought to me and later when they are completely repaired - says Filip.
