Ever worn a pair of trainers to death… but still had plenty of life left in the soles?

That was me with these Altras.
£150 shoes. Tread still solid. But the heel fabric? Torn to shreds.

I was all set to replace them until I found @trainerarmour . I was actually about to order some patches from Amazon when they reached out and offered to send me some to test. Just a short-term collab, nothing long-term, and they said to share if they worked.

Well… they’ve worked.

I’ve been out on a few runs since patching the heel holes, and I genuinely can’t feel them. No rubbing. No weird seams. No further damage. They’ve properly extended the life of these shoes.

Honestly? I just wish I’d known about them sooner. I would’ve patched them before the holes even got this bad.

They also do toe patches for people who wear through the front of their trainers (I know a few of you who do 🙃), and they are less than a tenner. Total no-brainer when shoes cost triple digits now.

My discount code is valid till the end of September if you want to try them yourself, and drops the price to just £5 - BENBUNGLETAYLOR25

Don’t bin your trainers. Patch ‘em.
