Introduction

This guide doesn’t require any background skills or knowledge.

In Steps 5 and 6, those who have never sewn before should be careful with the needle because it’s sharp.

Before sewing, make sure your thread is the same color (or close) to your shoes’ color (At the end it will look much better, and your shoes will look like new without any signs of repair.)

  • Measure and cut the thread.
  • For my fix, I used 45 cm of thread. (It’s better to cut more, than less.)
