Depends on the nature of the damage. If a crack appears, there are several repair options.
Buy elastic glue and fill the space in the crack with it. After it is completely dry, sand the repaired part of the sole with sandpaper. How long will it last? One or two exits.
For this method, you will need a small piece of nylon the size of a crack in the sole and a soldering iron. The nylon is inserted into the crack and carefully heated with a soldering iron. Then it is pushed into the crack in the sole. How long will it last? Two or three exits.
If the damage is more serious, do not waste time fixing the boots. It will be easier and safer to buy a new pair!

Has anyone tried to glue foam rubber boots?
Chirkanul with a drill, and made a cut.
Igor Chan grit is useless, as if nothing is glued.
I thought about vulcanization, but I don't know if he will take it.

I glued it with super glue. There was a terrible torn hole. The season was off (fishing) did not flow.

There was such a problem. It is best to glue it with a special glue for EVA. Two years ago in Barnaul, I did not find it, I ordered it from an online store. Now such glue is in the store "bite, not bite" on Novorossiysk, the price is 50 rubles per tube. You need to glue “end-to-end”, the thickness of the material allows. Accordingly, no patches - prepare the edges (degrease), dry, then follow the instructions for the glue. The seam is visible on my boot, but behaves like the base material.

Thank you. But I was already in a hurry, I screwed up the patch for a moment, I'll see how long it lasts

I glued it with super glue. There was a terrible torn hole. The season was off (fishing) did not flow. (A hole in the toe, pictures at Rybalka in Altai)
In how it turned out. After two more times super glue (the cheapest) was added to the seam.

Does anyone have any experience with gluing a new tread on an EVU? Let me explain. I go fishing for grayling. The semi-overalls have the lower part (the boot itself) made of this material (“Teplocomfort”). On stones, any material wears out quickly. Now I glue the material on the sole - such as the abrasive side of the dishwashing sponge. Enough for one fishing trip, but at least the foot does not slide along the alcove so much.
Maybe someone knows a more radical way to solve this problem?

I think that a rug made of artificial material, such that the bottom of the boat is covered, will be more radical, and from the assortment of carpets you can choose a rubber-based one and it will be easier to glue!

At the beginning of autumn, I was puzzled by two questions: "Why don't I have rubber boots?" and "how do I manage without them?" 🙂 No, I have PVC bogs, Salmo 242, but they are heavy (1.5 kg) and not always practical, especially in a boat. Yes, and walking into the forest for mushrooms in swamps is inconvenient.
In short, I took care of buying simple rubber or PVC boots. However, in the process of searching, it turned out that in nature there are also boots made of a great material - foamed ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). Weightless, soft, the sole is thick and resilient, an excellent thermal insulator is just a dream. I found a cheaper one and bought a model “Digger”. The only thing is that their minimum 41st size is approximately equal to the real 44th, but felt insoles and thick socks have not yet been canceled.
As it turned out, to all its advantages, foamed EVA has one significant drawback - low resistance to local mechanical stress, it is quite easy to cut and pierce. The boots endured the first two fishing trips perfectly, but from the third, into the forest for mushrooms, the left one returned seriously wounded, a through triangular gap of a centimeter wide at the ankle level, ran into a knot (a fresh gap, unfortunately, was not captured). In general, I strongly do not recommend climbing on windbreak in EVA boots, it is better to drag heavy PVC or rubber bands, but they will be more intact.
And away we go. At first, with my usual optimism, I thought that repairing boots was not a very tricky task, since my arms seemed to grow from my shoulders. The material is thick, about 2 mm, and I decided to do without patches at first, the glue, in theory, should grab the ends of the gap and it will turn out strong and beautiful. From the inside I pasted a patch made of super tape so that the glue would not flow inside, filled the fat-free gap with the universal “Moment”, put a piece of paper on top, pressed it down with a three-liter jar of water and calmly went to bed. In the morning, when an attempt was made to separate the piece of paper, the hardened glue cork was easily and naturally separated from the gap. Well, I didn't catch it at all :(.
I approached the next act of gluing more thoroughly: I bought rubber glue and patches made of soft rubber for repairing bicycle cameras (such as orange on the bottom, black on top). Eh, I would have guessed right away that EVA is not rubber after all ... The patch seemed to have grabbed, I could not separate it from the boot with a slight movement of my hand, and the excess glue that came out from the boot peeled off with considerable difficulty. The repaired site also survived immersion in water. An unpleasant surprise awaited me on my next fishing trip - the patch came off due to the deformation of the boot when walking. Naturally in the water 🙁
I didn't even try cyanoacrylate (superglue). It is inelastic, and it is not very water-resistant.
It's time to google. At the very first forum that came across, experienced people immediately explained that common universal adhesives for EVA are completely unsuitable for EVA, because it is plastic with low surface energy :). Cunning overseas adhesives Elmer's P9415, Elmer, s E9415, ZM DP8005 are recommended for gluing EVA, which glue absolutely everything, but you have to buy them cheaply on Amazon or Ebay and wait for many weeks with bated breath. And there’s no time to wait, the liquid autumn water will soon run out, the toad doesn’t let the toad buy new boots. Fortunately, on the same forum, a vague idea slipped through that the usual hot melt glue in the gun, as it were, is also EVA, but not foamed, and should glue.
I first practiced on cat a long-torn slipper. It stuck together! And then I taped the boot. From the inside, the same technological patch made of super tape, sparingly poured hot melt glue into the open gap and pressed it down with a hand for half a minute with a wide roll of the same super tape. It has a polyethylene outer surface, glossy and slightly oily, and does not adhere with hot melt glue. There was a lot of glue, so most of it squeezed out and formed a kind of patch.Since the roll of super tape is relatively soft and deforms slightly when pressed, the patch is a bit convex. If you press down with something hard and flat, for example, a piece of ceramic tiles or the plane of some metal or glass object (the bottom of a glass? :), the patch will turn out to be flat. Just make sure the hot melt glue does not stick to the clamp first. The thin edges of the patch about a millimeter in width from the boot peeled off, and I additionally melted them with a lighter and pressed it down again. By the way, before pouring hot melt glue, it probably won't hurt to slightly melt the edges of the gap / cut with a lighter.
A taped hole after fishing
Then I walked around the apartment in my boots for half an hour, then five minutes for a full bath. The next day, I put on my boots for fishing, there I, of course, also walked a lot, including on water. After fishing, no visible damage to the repaired place was found, the gluing does not flow. I hope that these boots will still serve, but I won't wear them in the forest anymore :).
And I will definitely buy cool adhesives from Elmer's and 3M for the future. They also praise Cosmofen for PVC, but that's another story.

Maybe someone will come in handy. Trouble happened to me, I ripped through an EVA marsh boot with a knot, they had a run, one booze, it's a pity.
"EVA shoe glue" for sale, in the photo the abbreviation EVA got under the glare, this tube was sold for 85r
Squeeze the cut site with your fingers so that the porous inner, cut part "pushes" out (I squeezed with a clamp). It is on the porous surface that the glue should be applied.
Coat with glue and smoke for 3-4 minutes. Connect the joint and press firmly.
It is necessary to coat with a thin layer, quickly and evenly.
Too much glue will only worsen the strength of the glue line!
The final setting time is 24 hours.
Today's tests have shown that it adheres tightly and the seam is elastic, does not allow water to pass through This is not advertising, many people wear various EVA fishing shoes, and she s. ka tender

For the manufacture of shoes, the use of traditional leather has long outgrown, replacing it with numerous and complex polymers, where substances of both artificial and natural origin are combined. One example of such a replacement is EVA shoes and boots.
Special glue for EVA boots acts as an attachment to such products.
EVA is a polymer composite based on foamed ethylene vinyl acetate.In the manufacture of sneakers and boots, it has found unexpectedly widespread use due to its unique qualities.
Greater lightness - even compared to PVC, EVA products are almost 4 times lighter. This makes the composite an excellent choice for making children's shoes.
The material is fine-pored and elastic, soft to the touch, in any case, the modification that is used in the manufacture of shoes and sneakers. This combination of properties forms a very attractive orthopedic quality - the memory effect. Thanks to it, and also because of its excellent shock absorption, the polymer is widely used in the manufacture of orthopedic shoes.
The highest water resistance - boots made of material based on ethylene vinyl acetate compete with rubber fishing boots, since they are also resistant to water, and have much less weight.
The polymer has excellent wear resistance, literally there is no drift, so only mechanical damage is possible. In this case, a special EVA hot melt adhesive will be required, since other adhesives do not provide such high water resistance.
Hygiene - the polymer is resistant to mold or mildew and does not promote the growth of bacteria.
Hypoallergenicity is perhaps the most important quality that allows EVA to be widely used in the field of medical knitwear and footwear.
It is worth noting the resistance of the composite to the action of chemically aggressive substances - oils and solvents, for example.
The disadvantages of a composite polymer and products made from it include insufficient mechanical strength - this means instability to sharp instruments. You can even cut through or puncture your boots with a knot. In addition, its anti-slip properties are insufficient, so manufacturers are increasingly producing special ribbed soles to compensate for this shortcoming.
Like any other polymer, ethylene vinyl acetate is very diverse. And therefore, products are made from it, sometimes for very, very different purposes.
Shoes, both orthopedic and any other, where high water resistance is required. Most often these are fishing and hunting boots of all types. The foamed polymer is distinguished by both the ability to keep water out and the ability to retain heat due to its special structure. And therefore, on its basis, boots, and boots, and shoes are produced.
In dentistry, polymer composite is used in the production of connecting positioners to correct malocclusion, for example.
Ethylene vinyl acetate is widely used in the manufacture of all kinds of bandages, head and knee pads.
EVA glue is intended for repairing sneakers and boots, although it can be used to glue both bandages and knee pads. The action of the formulations is described in detail in the instructions. The photo shows the packaging of the adhesive mixture.
In addition, hot melt adhesives are made on the basis of EVA. The melt, in addition to the base polymer, includes plasticizers and various fillers, which provides the melt with unusual behavior: when heated, the composition becomes liquid, and when cooled, it quickly hardens, forming an almost monolithic seam. Hot melt adhesive is used when various edgebanding materials are to be glued.
The use of an adhesive is not much different from the usual use. However, it is worth remembering that PVC products cannot be glued with this mixture. Therefore, for example, a repair kit always includes 2 types of adhesive.
The instructions for use include the following steps.
Before gluing with EVA glue, it is necessary to prepare the surface: clean and degrease with acetone.
It is necessary to unfold or squeeze the cut so that the inside of the EVA, the porous structure, is on the outside.
The glue is applied exactly to the porous open part of the cut and held for 3-4 minutes.
Then the edges are connected and pressed firmly. The adhesive layer should be thin, since a large amount makes the polymerization process difficult during solidification.
The glue will finally set after 24 hours.
