Repair Shoe/sandal/geta strap repair?

I don't think it's a terribly difficult fix - a new strap could be sewn onto the inner side of the strappy part of the geta, behind where those little golden buttons are. It won't look as neat from the inside as with the silicone straps but will not be visible while worn anyway.

 

You could probably use a mini hair elastic to act as a fastener, I use them for other doll shoes. looped around the ankle, crossed, then under the heel and it keeps them in place.

 

So, I mainly use this method on barbies they're a bit small, so from a distance you can't really see the band. I just tried it on my big girl (1/3) and it seems the band likes to migrate to where the joint is, but I think depending on the sock it may just look like a crease in the fabric


I will admit though my eyesight isn't the best and I can't see very far without glasses but for picture taking purposes it seems like it wouldn't be that hard to photoshop? Stability wise that shoe isn't going anywhere until the band breaks. I use clear scrunci elastics.
