So you bought like $50 worth of epoxies and sprays to repair a hole in a $12 shoe? A $12.00 used shoe…… lol.

I wear Tevas and they last sometimes 2 years and the straps pulling out of the bottoms is how they fail. I repaired mine temporarily with a strap tie, but I just get a new pair when they fail. I give Docs methods an "A" for ingenuity and Red Green would be proud.

I got a pair for xmas about 10 years ago and they still going strong. I normally just wear them around the house.

Crocs are made from proprietary closed cell foam…they will definitely last longest if only worn as house shoes.

Closed cell foam is a total pain to work with. Lexel is probably the most widely available adhesive for closed cell foam…but the $12 Walmart Rugged Sharks are just as good and a tube of Lexel is $8.
