Maybe a visit to your local cobblers and they could put a small patch inside. Could try some duck tape but that may come off after 1 run..😊

This is probably mostly due to the shape of your toes. Keeping your toenails nice and short, and wearing thicker, or padded socks, might help. Get the shoes patched as Dave said, and next time you buy new ones try to find some with plenty of toe room.

Keep running, though! And stop smoking, please xx

Don't bother fixing the hole. Get outside & start C25K and in a few weeks you can buy some new trainers.

Step 1: Empty cigarette pack, lay cigarettes neatly in a row on the ground

Step 2: Put on trainer (including hole)

step 3: Squish cigarettes with trainer

Step 4: Pick up empty cigarette paper. If any tobacco clings to it, gently shake it off

Step 5: Carefully cut open each tube of cigarette paper so you end up with flat sheet of paper

Step 6: Place cigarette paper wrappers on top of each other to form a thick pack

Step 8: Take shoe with hole off

Step 9: Place cigarette paper pack inside shoe below the hole

Step 10: Put shoe back on

Step 11: Go running on dry roads; patch is not water proof

Step 12: There were no step 7

Step 13: I know. You just checked, didn't you?

Step 14: Enjoy running. It is as addictive as smoking and far healthier.

Good luck

My running shoes regularly got holes there very quickly. It wasn't a problem for running, or at least not until the holes were so big my whole big toe was sticking out through them. Get 'em on and go!

I have big toe nail holes in most of my running shoes. I am told it is due to them being a bit stiff with age. The toes, not the shoes 🙂
