    The rubber has started to come away from the fabric around my the toe part of my skate shoes. What's the best way of fixing this, or is there a way?! Superglue? Cobbler?

    Use superglue it always works. They better not be vans!

    What about just buying new shoes? :D

    Anyway.. yeah, I'd say superglue would work too.

    New shoes, I'm not made of money!! :D These were E100, and no they're not vans, they're Osiris, I thought they'd last longer than this before the rubber started coming off tbh :eek:

    No no, dont buy osiris, they are prone to this sort of thing. You wanna get some DVS or Etnies.
    Anywho, your looking for Shoe Goo as mentioned, only stuff that will work for any period of time. Super Glue will no work, i have much experience in fixing screwed skate shoes :o .
    I have never seen Goo in any of shops here but perhaps go up to G1 and see if they have any. While your up there they are selling 2 pairs for 100buck :D.
