how to fix a skate tongue on my RBK 5k skates?

[Inferno272 0]

couple weeks ago the fucker just popped right out, entire tongue came out in my hand...i tried gluing it back on with some really strong epoxy glue but it again just keeps popping out....is there any way to fix this? other than just going to a shoe repair store or something?

probably not an easy at home fix , but im not 100% sure. your best bet is gonna be a lhs .

Is the tongue ripped or just came out in one piece. You should be able to stitch it back on through the original holes if its still in one piece

This is actually a pretty easy repair, especially on RBK skates as the edge of the toe box is a bit thinner than on other skates.

See if you can't find a sewing awl at a craft store with some waxed thread. Or take it to a LHS that does it - might cost you a couple bucks more, but at least you don't have to do it yourself.
