Manila Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Hi all, Anyone out there can advise on a returned pair of shoes, which, after repair, customer insists is now squeaking. Any ideas where to start without taking the whole repair apart? Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathews Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Soak them in water and let them dry out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisorros Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Manila are the shoes ladies or gents? What sort of repair was done to the shoes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manila Posted April 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 They were ladies, fairly high heel and a leather sole was put on. Thanks for reply.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithm Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Sounds like the shanks moving! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manila Posted April 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Doesn't seem to be the shank tho. More where the ball of the foot bends. Drives me potty when you do a perfectly good repair, doing nothing different than you've done a thousand times over, and you then have to try and diagnose these things. kobblers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 My guess is the leather sole rubbing on the insole when flexed, try lifting the insole slightly and puffing a little talc powder between insole and sole that should resolve the problem.
