Title: HELP
Post by: wilkie113 on April 08, 2012, 01:14:20 PM

My spikes are stuck in the bottom of my old shoes, and I want to wear them again this season after buying and trying several pairs.

Has anybody had this problem before? If so is there anyway to get them out :(

WD 40 is your friend mate, slight wetting of the spikes would also get the mud moblising.

Think wd40 is the way to go. Just spray and leave, for a bit. Let it soak in then try and take them out. If not the repeat

I twisted one a while back and disturbed the part it goes into :/!

Reckon if I got all the spikes ripped out they could be resoled by the shoe doctor or brian and brenda?
