5.10 Asym Shoe Repair
|
Ive got some old Asyms that I am trying to hold on to as long as I can. Some of the rubber is starting to peel a little bit and I was wondering what kind of epoxy I should use to tack it back down. Any suggestions? |

You can try Barge Cement, if it was me I would ignore and have a rand/half sole put on when the time is right. Also I think the actual name on these shoe is the Hueco, which they currently are making in white. I've heard good things about them. I think Asym has to do with the shape of the shoe, or the 'S' shape of the lacing pattern, but I just may be 100% wrong. |

Is this the same shoe? |

thanks for the info, i may just keep going til its time to resole. Im not sure if the hueco is the same shoe or not. These have a tag that says Asym on it. There are prob 10 years old now. I was looking at getting La Sportiva Mythos cause they sound similar (good all day all around crack shoe). |

We have an excellent assortment of gear shops in the SE between Looking Glass Outfitters, Unique Outfitters, or any number of gear shops. |

Five ten put the same tag on several shoes back then. I'm pretty sure they are the hueco which is a lot stiffer than the floppy mythos. |
