I'm playing volleyball for the first time and I'm not sure of what volleyball shoes are exactly. So can anyone explain to me the difference and tell me whether I can use regular athletic shoes or running shoes instead?

Answer
volleyball shoes r made specifically for volleyball: it has good traction and grip. it is also very light weight for quick movement. usually it has a flat bottom part while running shoes have elevated shocks when you jump hurdles and stuff.
running shoes: are light weight but are made for running. in volleyball you dont run too much so running shoes arent realy built for volleyball.

if your new to volleyball i suggest buying running shoes bcuz there really is any need to spend more money for volleyball shoes when running shoes can be used for more than one activity. running shoes are also cheaper. but if your an experienced volleyball player i suggest volleyball shoes if you are commited to the sport.

What would be the best adhesive to glue a sole back on an athletic shoe?

The last several pairs of athletic shoes I've purchased, the back sole separates from the shoe after wearing for a few weeks. I've tried rubber cement, fixture adhesive and silicone caulk. None of these work. Any suggestions?

Answer
The best glue is something called "Goop" Make sure you clean the rubber parts with a solvent. An alcohol will work, but so will something stronger like acetone (don't use too much or your shoe will dissolve). Clamp the parts together for 24 hours - a regular clamp is best but a couple of boards wrapped together with rope will work too.
