How do you replace the slides on your sneakers?
Sneakers occupy a central place in our daily lives, as much for their comfort as for their role as fashion accessories. However, repeated wear of certain parts, such as the slides inside the heels, can quickly alter their comfort and aesthetics. These areas, subjected to constant friction, are often the first to deteriorate, causing pain or even blisters. Fortunately, you don't have to replace your shoes to solve this problem. A simple repair of the slides can restore your sneakers and extend their life. At TILLI, our shoemakers specialize in repairing and replacing slides. Thanks to their know-how and the use of high-quality materials, we guarantee discreet, solid and comfortable repairs. What's more, with the Repair Bonus, this intervention costs €27 instead of €35, making this solution both economical and long-lasting.Posted 3 months ago
