Selected User Reviews For Supertap Shoe Repair Stiletto Replacement Heels Tips 6 Pairs size 8,9,10 mm (Black)
I am replacing the heel tips myself for the first time and it was quite simple. After pulling off the old ones with pliers and tapping in the new ones a few times on the floor, I just plugged them back in. Here's all you need to know. I'm very impressed with how easy it is, especially since I would be without my shoes for at least a week when I took them to a There is a small Supertap logo stamped on the bottom of the tips, so they look exactly like the ones my cobbler uses. As they are ribbed to stay in place and the ends are hard but slightly rubbery plastic, the sticks are held in place by a pocket. A little bag with tips is all that is included there is no packaging or directions. Please read the following details if you are not sure how these are sized **** - In general, 8 mm, 9 mm, and 10 mm are measured by the width x depth of the heel tips (so the 10 mm ones have a width of 10 mm and a depth of 10 mm)
- No matter the size, the height of each tip (excluding the dowel) is 6 mm. No matter what size you choose, the dowel is between 2 and 3 mm thick, with a length of 12 mm. The smaller sizes 8 and 9 mm are very narrow, meant for thin stilettos -- Those with more typical sized heels may be better off with the 10 mm on the second set and the 11/12/13 mm on the third set.
To spin the dowel, just hold the remaining metal stem tightly with the pliers and turn it slowly, being careful not to damage the remaining heel and not to In addition to damaging the hole, it will cause corrosion. It may take some time, but eventually the old stem will be released If inserting a new tip, gently tap it in with a hammer as it will help keep the tip straight. Avoid pushing your thumb into it too hard as this will bend the dowel which will make the replacement tip ineffective. In order to get the most out of your new heel tips, you need to be patient on the other hand, timing is crucial Only if the shoe stem has broken off and you can't get to the stem do you need to pay at the shoe repair shop $10 to $15 per pair. Some brands will not lend themselves to home repairs, but Nine West and Spanish Leather are two brands that are easier to replace than.
You need to get rid of the old worn out heel park before it reaches the nail, otherwise it becomes harder to get rid of.
impressed with the post, since it is too wide and difficult to tap into an extremely Despite that the heel replacement is the right size, I have not been able to work with the post. After searching for an hour and a half, I found that my local shoe repair shop could no longer do this type of repair. It was fun to purchase a new pair of shoes, however!.
Because I was thinking I would be able to In two days, they arrived, which I thought was fantastic. I was able to remove the old worn out heels just fine, but the new ones were simply too big! I can't believe it! Since they are very expensive shoes, I'm not about to force them in =( I thought I had finally found the solution! I'm pissed. In light of the fact that I've just received them yesterday, I haven't started the return process yet. I am glad for most of you that they worked out, but it didn't work How come there aren't all of these heels the same size on the internet? I hate you!.
The pads arrived on time and were as described, but the dowel is too large to fit It would be better if I simply bought a new pair of shoes rather than drilling my heels to make bigger holes. If there were a variation in dowel size I would appreciate it.
I'm sure these would have done the trick were it not for the fact that the manufacturer of the shoes in question used a screw to mount the stiletto heel, not a nail. Using pliers and a screwdriver, I removed the screw, although it was too tight to remove. In the end, I returned both shoes to my local dry cleaner and had new heels installed for $8 each. You don't want to end up in the same situation as I did! Check whether it's a nail or a screw before driving it.
Therefore, they weren't the best match for me but they were nothing wrong with them either.
