Loobs
I have a pair of Fitflops size 7 which I love, they are so comfortable, I live in them during the summer months. However, the left one has split in a place I cannot repair (I have tried epoxy and also super glue) so I wondered if anybody knows where I could buy one Fitflop - I've looked at ebay but no joy. I haven't tried the actual company that manufacture them as I cannot guarantee the remaining one will last for years so I could always end up in the same situation for the other foot, anytime soon. There must be lots of people who throw stuff away when all they need is the matching item? If not, maybe I should start a site for one shoe/glove etc.
Yes, unfortunately you will have to buy a new pair, I think, although I know some can be quite expensive. At over £100 for a pair they really should last for a very long time.
I had a pair of good leather slip-ons, not very old, although the leather was still absolutely perfect the side had parted from the top on one shoe. I kept looking at them wondering what I could do with them but they went in the bin.
