Shoe Repair, special case:  Tread wore out unevenly, or side support too weak

Important: The above Sketch and repair are only approximations.  Note the screw heads shown act as spacers.  (In some cases, several layers of healthcare style adhesive tape or a thin self-sticking, flexible magnetic plastic strip, can also be applied inside of shoe, opposite the screws shown.  Or anywhere, inside the shoe, that seems appropriate.)  Read the related article, including ‘Cautions’, before deciding what repair methods to use, or even if any repair should be attempted at all.                                                                                                                                           

The repair might be useful for some used shoes where the tread has worn-out unevenly as shown.  Or even for some new shoes, where one side of the shoe sole or pad compresses too much with the user’s uneven weight or pressures.
