For heels that refuse to be simply reattached, glue is a solid option. It’s a good idea to always have a bottle of glue available at all times. Not just any glue, use super glue or wood glue, depending on the material composition of your shoe. Before applying the glue, scrape off the old glue from the heel and sole. Carefully align the heel with the shoe, apply the glue, apply pressure hold for a while and then leave it to dry.  If you happen to be close to Columbus Shoe Repair, lucky you!
