We have all experience super glue at some point or another, and it has usually resulted in us desperately trying to free our fingers from whatever we were trying to glue. Super glue was not created during the wartime as popular myths dictate.

To get the strongest bond possible for any project or task you may be performing, first consider its location, environmental condition, surface conditions, and length of required durability. This is a combination you will come across in shoes. The best glue to use at home for this is an impact adhesive as it will remain semi flexible. A super glue is likely to leave a white mark and go brittle. The last thing we want to do is damage our hearing whilst working on hobbies.
