What to do if the shoe velcro doesn't stick anymore

Nowadays, many shoes have Velcro, which makes it convenient to put on and take off shoes, so shoes with Velcro are very popular. Although shoes with Velcro are good, the Velcro will become non-sticky after wearing for a long time. This is a phenomenon that all shoes with Velcro will have. At this time, there are some small methods to improve this situation. Of course, you must also protect the Velcro when wearing shoes.

1. Clean the debris on the Velcro

The Velcro of shoes is also called Magic Tape. After the shoes are used for a long time, a lot of debris will appear on the hook surface. It is best to use sharp objects such as toothpicks to pick out the hair and other debris.

2. Use of old things

If the soft sticky hair on it falls off or is worn off, the Velcro will basically not stick and needs to be modified. Find some unworn clothes or other unused clothes to see if there are any Velcro materials on them. Cut off the ones with Velcro, and then use fishing line or needle and thread to sew the Velcro to the shoes.

3. Buy a Velcro

If you don't have back-to-back Velcro at home, you can look for it online or at a place where you can mend clothes or shoes. Buy some and sew it on yourself when you get home, which saves time and effort.

4. Find a shoe repairman

If you don't want to do it yourself, you can ask a shoe repairman to replace the Velcro for you, or go to a tailor shop and sew a new one on. The price is relatively cheap.

How to maintain shoe velcro

1. When using shoe velcro, we should slow down the force to tear it open, not too hard. If we often tear it with force, it will affect the function of the thorny side in the long run, causing the fluff on one end to gradually decrease.

2. Do not use Velcro on moving objects that are too heavy for it to bear, because in this case not only cannot guarantee that its adhesion can meet the requirements, but there may also be some safety hazards.

3. The thorny side generally has stronger adhesion, and it is easy to stick to some dirt such as hair balls, so we need to tidy them up regularly, and don't let laziness cause them to fail to adhere properly.
