When a hole begins to form in the sole of your shoe and you want a quick fix, glue works great! Super glue isn't the best option since it takes a very long time to dry, but it can be sufficient if you have nothing else. Rubber glue, contact cement, or vulcanizing rubber glues are better options. Place glue on both sides of the hole and use a putty knife to smooth out the area. Let it dry completely, then peel off any extra product.
