I think I might do a show on travel prep when I get back. Not for zombies or even big disasters just common stuff. In this case Shoe Goo to the rescue. My boots went catastrophic sole failure. Shoe goo made em fine for more hiking. 6 dollar product saves the entire point of an expensive vacation.

I second that suggestion
Yes please. Always interested in every day prep and ways to fix things
Shoe Goo was my best friend as a Skateboarder. We covered our new shoes with it to stop the grip tape from shredding the fabric.
I was just discussing something similar with some friends I went camping with not long ago. We were at Ft George inlet and it turned gale force windy. The good side of having an unpleasant experience like that is finding out how much gear breaks or just doesn’t pass the test. I know you’ve mentioned in the past that “RV” stands for “ruins vacations” but a cheap Coleman tent in a gale with blowing sand does that too. I slept in my car, reminiscing about how I used to have my art show trailer pre-packed with my gear so I could just up and go in about 30 min. And it had extras in case I couldn’t find or afford a hotel at the show. Sometimes I would sleep in it. Now that I think of it, it was a bug out bag on wheels before I even knew what a bug out bag was. SO may more options now. I just saw where you can get a suitcase sized kit that you can check as a bag on an airplane, that can open up to turn your rental SUV into a mini camper. Neat.

I know any sole can fail, but I see this more on molded soles vs Goodyear welted soles. Glad you were able to get it fixed!
