What's your best method to correcting flaws on the shoes right out of the box?

Example: Takeing off the extra glue of the mid sole from when they were placed together, etc?


Just wondering on what everyone else does to make their shoes look perfect.

If Im in a store I examine them very close and I may request for a different shoe to compare quality. If its the "last 12" and I really want it. I just deal with it and keep them clean. As far as the glue sometimes you can use tweezers to pull of excess. Be careful though.

don't really correct them unless its really big defect, otherwise you might mess them up
