Lol thanks Capt. Hindsight The one and only time I was too lazy to google something and someone calls me out. Who the hell still fixes shoes? Buy some more from China it's probably cheaper than paying some dude to glue up your ish.
Cobblers don't work on nikes man. Cheap mass produced shit like that is always worth throwing away. Cobblers were in their prime when people wore shoes made of materials that last, like leather. I have a pair of leather hiking boots that I've had for 20 years, been repaired 4 times. I also had a pair of $80 shoes made in taiwan, lasted me 4 weeks before they started to fall apart. Also what is that pipe made of, almost looks like cork haha.
