Description
Whether you're an everyday walker, dedicated runner or someone who simply values the longevity of their shoes, these reinforced self-adhesive patches offer a discreet and reliable way to extend the life of your footwear.
Each pack includes two durable black patches along with a left and right foot applicator, making fitting straightforward and mess-free. There’s no need to remove laces or guess placement — the applicators ensure the patch sits precisely above the toebox, where wear commonly occurs. Once in place, the ultra-thin, abrasion-resistant patch becomes virtually unnoticeable, blending seamlessly into the interior of your shoe.
Designed for both prevention and minor repair, the Trainer Armour Big Toe Hole Preventer can be installed in brand-new shoes to avoid damage or used to reinforce a weakening area before it develops into a hole. The patches act as a tough inner barrier, shielding the shoe's mesh from repeated toe pressure and friction.
Compatible with UK shoe sizes 3–12, the system is versatile and adaptable — the applicators can even be trimmed for a better fit. With this small but powerful upgrade, you’ll reduce waste, save money, and keep your favourite footwear in action for longer.
How does it work
Trainer Armour works by acting as a tough internal shield between your big toe and the inner fabric of your shoe. The self-adhesive patch is made from a thin, yet highly durable material that resists both abrasion and tearing — common causes of toe holes. The clever applicator system guides the patch into the perfect position inside the shoe’s toebox, so it sticks securely without creasing, shifting, or sticking to your fingers during application.
Once applied, the patch blends into the shoe interior and forms a strong protective layer, absorbing the repetitive pressure and friction that usually leads to mesh breakdown. Whether used preventatively or to strengthen a developing weak spot, this simple addition helps prolong the life of your shoes and reduce waste.
