Stop shoes squeaking


Both of my son's new shoes squeak alot when he walks. How can this be stopped?

Squeaky shoes can be annoying both for you listening to the squeak and also the person wearing the squeaky shoes!

One method is to try a little babypowder inside the shoe to see if that makes a different.

If not it could be the sole that is causing the squeak.

Try covering with clear sellotape on the contact points with the floor and see if that helps.

But go for the babypowder inside the shoes first to try to stop the squeak.
