I have a pair of Diadora Track shoes that are extremely comfortable. They have leather and mesh tops with a rigid fiber soles. Now the tops are starting to separate from the soles. Any ideas on if they can be fixed or is it time to look for a new pair?

Thanks for any info.

I've had good luck repairing my road shoes with Shoe Goo. You can buy it at most drug stores.

A couple wraps of duct tape should keep the top and bottom together.
